In 1992, a new vision emerged in the Texas Wine Industry with the debut release of wine from Cap*Rock Winery in Lubbock, Texas. Out of the flatness of the Texas High Plains rises one of the most beautiful winemaking facilities in the country. The stunning Southwestern mission style winery is outfitted with the finest quality equipment available. The building is 23,000 square feet with the capacity to produce 45,000 cases at present and has the space for additional tanks and barrels to reach a capacity of approximately 90,000 cases. The fermentation rooms have forty foot ceilings to accommodate the Ameri can made stainless steel tanks which range in size form 1,000 to 13,000 gallons and the barrel racks containing both French and American barrels. The winery is equipped with a German stemmer-crusher, German presses and an Italian bottling line.
Visitors from all over the world enjoy the beauty and style of the winery's tasting room and its fourteen foot ceiling, stone fireplace, graciously appointed interior furnishings and green marble-topped bar. It is a favorite area for bridal portraits, weddings, and special events.
The name, Cap*Rock, refers to the actual geologic formation of the Texas High Plains area. A caprock is an impervious stratum or resistant rock usually at the summit of a mesa. The caprock extends from the Great High Plains to the northern part of the Texas Panhandle.
