COVER STORY
larger problems during dry years
when they search for water sources.
The Texas Heritage Vineyard
owners are Susan and Billy Johnson.
She retired from a corporate
insurance position and he is an
insurance agent in Fredericksburg.
Before taking the plunge in
establishing the business, the couple
grew grapes on a one-acre test
vineyard at their home. Commercial
acreage began with two acres, later
expanding to 15 acres. The first vines
went into the ground in 2015, with
harvest starting in 2016 and 2017.
Varieties include Alicante
Tyler Buddemeyer, winemaker and vineyard manager at Texas Heritage
Vineyard in Fredericksburg, Texas, in an Alicante Bouschet vineyard.
Wildlife control is a big battle for Texas Hill Country vineyards.
