Each year Llano Estacado Winery produces limited amounts of Red Raider wines. Red Raider wines were developed as a partnership between two icons of West Texas Texas Tech University and Llano Estacado Winery. A portion of the sales goes to support Texas Tech Alumni Association as well as Texas Tech’s Wine Marketing Research Institute. Our 2008 Raider White Zinfandel is produced from 100% Texas grapes. It is a blend of 95% White Zinfandel and 5% Shiraz. It is fermented using our cold fermentation process. This wine has aromatics of watermelon and blackberry and the fruity quality of the aroma carries into the mouth with a perfect touch of sweetness. Serve this wine chilled. Raider White Zinfandel is much like a Blush or Mediterranean style Rosé – it can be served with virtually any meal.
