Question: What kind of grapes would best grow in texas that you can use to make wine?

My dad loves wine, and after my mom came back from a little Texas wine tour, he decided that he wants to try his hand on making wine. But he does have one problem, he doesn't have a clue on what kind of grapes we need to grow to start with. I've looked and looked on the Internet, and i can't find one thing. So if you have had first hand experience on making, or helping make wine please help. Any advice would be extremely helpful. Thank you.

My advice would be to look up Texas wines and wine producers and see what grape varietals they are using since these are likely to be the most suitable for the area. I am a bit concerned about how successful this is likely to be as a venture without any previous knowledge at all.
