Exclusive WineKnow Class During HarvestFest
Reserve now for your space in a special edition WineKnow class with Marnelle Durrett, Proprietor and Winemaker of Kiepersol Estates. She will guide you through the world of wine so you can taste like a true connoisseur. Information on everything from glasses to varieties and how to order at a resturant will be covered.
This class will be limited to 30 people and held during our Harvest Festival on Saturday October 20th - one class at 1 pm and one at 5 pm class. The classes will be held at the Port House inside the Kiepersol Estates Winery's tasting room. Tickets are $30 per person and can be ordered by calling 903.894.8995.
Kiepersol is honored to be one of the highlights of this month's Edible Dallas/Fort Worth magazine showcasing our harvest photos. Here's an excerpt of the story...
Where is Kiepersol's wine made? Most definitely in the vineyard. Marnelle says that they like to "taste the experiences (they) had in the vintage," so a 2008 wine will taste just like that year. When preparing the vines for a new season's growth, Kiepersol workers assess what they want the vine to do that year, then shape the vine with the pruning shears and finally bless the vine. According to Pierre, "the best fertilizer a farmer can put in a field is a footprint."
