**Texas Hill Country** is a large wine region in central Texas, spreading across the rolling limestone hills west of Austin and San Antonio, and one of the anchors of the state's fast-growing wine scene. **Wines & grapes** — Growers have leaned into warm-climate, Mediterranean and Rhône grapes that suit the heat, including Tempranillo, Mourvèdre, Grenache and Sangiovese for reds, and Viognier, Roussanne and Blanc du Bois among whites. Tannat and Cabernet Sauvignon also feature. **Character** — Hot days, cooler nights and limestone-rich soils give ripe, full-bodied wines. Late frosts, hail and heat make it a challenging place to farm, so quality varies, but the best producers make characterful, food-friendly bottlings. **Good to know** — It is a popular tasting-room destination and a big driver of Texas wine tourism.
