This week we are discussing the murder of Christine Morton out of Austin, TX. In 1986, Christine was bludgeoned to death in her bed. Her three year old son witnessed the attack. They pinned the murder on her husband, Michael Morton. But did he do it? Was there any actual evidence? This is a roller coaster of a case.
Big thanks to our friends at Edge of the Lake Vineyard and Winery for sending us delicious wine! This week we are sipping on Tempetite 2020. This blend of 83%Tempranillo from the Texas High Plains and 17% Petite Verdot also from The High Plains. This wine is jammy with great mouth feel. Hints of Tobacco and leather and pepper as a result from the Tempranillo and hints of black current and licorice from the intense Petite Verdot. Visit our friends at edgeofthelakevineyard.com.
