Texas wine vineyards are located across the entire state. Texas is large and diverse. Though the original vines planted in El Paso can be traced back to 1560 with Spanish missionaries, the industry really became of age in the 1970’s when a small group of farmers with the help of Texas A&M University planted experimental vineyards across the state. There was no educational or legal support for those pioneers. That industry has grown from 2 wineries in 1977 to almost 1,000. In each region hard working families have given their lives to develop vineyards and wineries that speak to Texas culture. Each generation passes on to the next, knowledge, passion, and business. Each family business transition from one generation to the next is wrought with stress, division, and conflict. The Arrgos family, immigrants from Albania, pioneered grape growing north of Dallas - Ft. Worth. As the Arrgos family requests the help of Viticulturist Trevor Talan in the transition of their family business, Trevor finds himself not only in the midst of family turmoil but investigating murder. It made no sense that Oto Arrgos would call Trevor in an exuberant voice about his plans for helping his daughter to lead the winery and vineyard into the next generation and then to find himself surrounded by sorrow. You can only imagine the despair felt when Oto was found dead in the vines of his own vineyard. Who could have done this evil deed? What will happen to the winery and the family legacy now? Follow Trevor Talan as he helps solve the mystery and save the winery.
