WIneCrisis, I have been to Dry Comal...and I am very glad you were able to sample the black spanish! What bothered me about my visit was that they said they did not have any black spanish to sample. And I went there just to try it! I have a hard time paying 30+ for a bottle of Texas wine unless I have sampled it first! I have had several other Black Spanish/Lenoir wines throughout Texas! And this varietal grows very well here in Texas! less
