The McPherson family has been a part of Texas viticulture and winemaking for over 40 years. McPherson Cellars was created to honor Winemaker Kim McPherson's father, Dr. Clinton "Doc" McPherson, a founder and pioneer of the modern Texas wine industry. Doc was one of the state's prime grape growers and was the first in Texas to plant Sangiovese in his Sagmor Vineyard.
We converted Lubbock's historic 1930s era Coca Cola bottling plant in downtown Lubbock into a winery and our winery opened in the fall of 2008. Wine in Texas, huh? You read that right. And we're just getting started. For years we have practiced "planting to the land" and concentrated on growing grapes best suited for the warm Texas High Plains climate.

The Texas High Plains AVA lies within the High Plains sub-region of the Great Plains, stretching from Amarillo in the north to the New Mexico border and extending just south of Lubbock.

Haven’t been to the wine tasting BUT I recently bought a bottle of the 2016 Viogner and all I can say is WOW.. I have experienced wine from some of the most amazing wine farms in South Africa and always told everyone how much I hated American wines.. This bottle is exquisite, I went back to the bottle store and bought all they had, hoping they find a few more bottles. When I get the chance I will definitely be stopping by the wine farm for a tasting

My wife and I visited just for wine tasting, and I was impressed by the Cinsault. I was not a fan of much else though. The other wines were forgettable, the presentation was a simple, in-and-out, scripted description that left us feeling like we weren't worth the time of the girl serving us. Maybe it was an off day for the staff? Unfortunately that cannot be the excuse for most the wine.
