The Texoma AVA is an American Viticultural Area located in north central Texas, on the south side of Lake Texoma and the Red River that forms the border with the state of Oklahoma.[4] The Texoma region is where 19th century viticulturist Thomas Volney Munson discovered that grafting Vitis vinifera grapevines onto native American varieties of vine rootstock resulted in vines that were resistant to phylloxera. The technique saved the European wine industry when it was brought to France, which was suffering its first phylloxera epidemic. The region was not designated an American Viticultural Area until 2005.[2]
Wineries [link]
When it was established in 2005, only four wineries were located within the Texoma AVA. In 2006, this number increased to six.[3]

Deuxieme Fois
by: La LeySi je cale droit vers ma profonde souffrance
Si je nage un grand verre qui est vide remarque bien la solitude de ma piece
Tu sentiras mes forts soupcons de detresse alors laisse jaillir cette chute d'angoise de ma bouteille
Car avant de mourir vaut mieux souffrir une deuxieme fois...
Si je croise les doigts sur cette penurie regarde bien les larmes qui coulent de mon visage
tu sentiras soudain le parfum de mon courage
et si cette chute d'angoise me condame pour toujours.
Bien avant de mourir faudra souffrir une deuxieme fois... (*)
Une deuxieme fois...une deuxieme fois..une deuxieme fois...
