In the glass, Vermut exudes a warm amber hue, reminiscent of the fiery sunsets that paint the Texas sky. From the first aromatic swirl, fragrances of native herbs, wildflowers, and hints of spice captivate the senses, inviting you to embark on a sensory journey through the rugged landscapes of Texas. On the palate, Vermut unfolds with a symphony of flavors, where the sweetness of ripe peaches and the tang of Texas grapefruit harmonize with the herbal complexity of native botanicals, creating a vibrant and multi-layered profile that lingers long after the final sip.

About the Winemaker

Ross, Cooper, and Matt founded The Austin Winery in May 2014, establishing the first full production, grape to glass winery inside Austin city limits. Ross and cooper cut their teeth in cellars, tasting rooms, equipment warehouses, and brokerage for years before opening. After producing two red blends to wide applause, matt smith joined the team to add necessary structure to the Austin winery. The young team proved their concept with 3 years of busy tasting room traffic and wholesale distribution out of an industrial warehouse. In May 2017, the Austin winery moved its operation to the newly built out development, the yard, at 440 e. St Elmo Rd A1, 78745. This move opened a new chapter in the history of the winery. It was the first year producing wine with fruit exclusively grown in Texas. All subsequent vintages have been 100% Texas fruit. All future vintages will be produced in this manner, to best show case the quality and character of Texas terroir. The winery's case production has grown nearly 200%, facilitated by critical additions in new equipment and team members.  With the move to south Austin, the winery is taking a bigger role shaping the greater Austin community. Open six days a week, wine club members are encouraged to swing by after work for a glass and sit down to chat with a winemaker or another member of the team. On weekends, the winery hosts a larger, more diverse crowd, aiming to bring more Texas wine-lovers into the fold with friendly service and frank educational conversations. Regular dining and craft pop-ups and charity events add depth and value to the winery's impact on its community.
