White Fox Vineyards in Murchison, Texas near Athens has had an incredible start to 2019 already winning 14 medals for their Texas wines in multiple wine competitions.
White Fox Vineyards opened in 2015 and is a family-owned winery situated on 330 acres. The winery produces small batch, hand crafted, local wines. White Fox currently produces four estate-grown muscadine wines, as well as a variety of other fruit and grape wines.
White Fox Vineyards has earned recognition this year from the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition, Texas International Wine Competition, Rodeo Uncorked International Wine Competition, TEXSOM International Wine Awards, and Toast of the Coast Wine Competition.
“It’s always a fantastic feeling when our wines are recognized, especially among some well-known regional and international brands,” said Daniel Fears, co-founder and winemaker at White Fox Vineyards. “We’re proud of the honors earned so far, and we’ll continue to produce quality wine that stands out from the crowd.”
