Congratulations to the Top Texas Winery which was Kiepersol Vineyards & Winery.

My dad’s distinct palate helped create each of the wines that received awards. Sadly we lost him at the beginning of this year, but we feel that our guardian angel has guided our steps this year and he would be so proud of the wine production team.”

Hello Mr. Cope,
This is Rebecca Thieme with Bella Stella Winery, Winnsboro, TX. We entered 2 wines and were awarded a silver and bronze at the Houston Rodeo 2017 competition. Didn’t see us on the list so wondering whom I need to contact to try to get us on it.
Thank you. Cheers.
That would be the 2018 list.
