This place doesn't grow or use any local grapes. We went on a Saturday...which means the business should be prepared for one of their busiest days. Instead, our young waitress was "in your face" short with us, our service was mediocre and the establishment seemed ill prepared for a crowd. The savory cheese board was ok. However, I had have outstanding cheese/charcuterie boards at nearby wineries for less cost and far better quality. We were there in the afternoon and the very limited parking area was already full. The inside winery area is cramped and small. The outside area is spacious...but, lacks the outdoor fans that we see at many other Texas winery patios.

The drive up to the vineyard was great. From the outside, the facilities were appealing and inviting. We selected this establishment due to it having food on the menu on the website that we looked at prior to leaving for the vineyard. Upon being seated, a menu was handed to us with no explanation. When the waitress came back over we asked for the mixed wine flight and 2 flatbreads. She explained to us that the kitchen was closed (the was at 1:30 pm and the waitress never communicated it out when handing us the menus that the kitchen was closed nor did the website mention it) and that the only thing we could get was chips and hummus. Since we were hungry, we asked for the chips and hummus. She came back with our first pours and she added that each pour was 1 oz. which I highly doubt due to it just barely filling up the glass. I asked her how she knew how much she was pouring and she said "I just guess". We did the next pour, then on the third pour she was pouring the last wine on the menu. We explained to her that she skipped the 3rd wine and proceeded to argue with us. She finally brought us the 3rd wine after debate then the fourth. Wine was very good. The table next to us received a charcutier board and then realized she never brought us any chips or hummus. It was at this point we realized, we were not going to get the service that we desired. We asked for our check and paid. We left straight from there to another winery where the food was good, service was great and staff were friendly and accommodating. We will not be going back to Arche or recommending it to anyone who asks.

We drove an hour and a half, one way, to try out this winery for the FIRST time. We also expressed…read moreto a staff member that this was our first time. Since we arrived as soon as the facility had opened, we were anxious to start off with wine flights and a charcuterie board. Only ONE other couple arrived before us and since they ordered a charcuterie board, we were then told that they didn't have enough provisions to make any other charcuterie boards for the remainder of the day. This was an UTTER disappointment!!!!! Especially, since I had messaged the winery beforehand and was assured they were serving food from their entire menu. We begrudgingly ordered a "flatbread" item from the menu and were sorely disappointed. Given the ingredients included on this super tiny small "pizza" and the exorbitant cost, the profit markup on this menu item has to be HUGE! Since the winery was busy, we heard other disappointed guests try to order charcuterie boards to also be upset that none were to be had on that day. Our sommelier was knowledgeable about all of the wines....and I am assuming was the owner/manager of the vineyard. We opted to buy 6 bottles of wine at a mere savings and had wanted to open one of them to enjoy while we were there. Then, the "catch" came....we had to buy an ADDITIONAL bottle to open while being seated as the "cost savings" offer was only available as a "carry out". Our tasting service was slow and the cost for tastings far exceeds what we are used to given the MANY Texas wineries we have visited. While the ambiance is idyllic and the facility is clean, a business only gets ONE chance to make a good first impression. Like other reviews, that have been recently posted, we left and found a nearby winery that offered great food, reasonable prices and fantastic service. We won't be back and we won't be recommending this winery to anyone else.

It is tucked away, off the beaten path, on a beautifully kept property. There is convenient parking right next to the tasting room. You can choose to sit indoors or out on one of the patios - there are mini-golf holes on one and giant chess pieces on the other. When you enter the tasting room, everything is decorated with aviation items. It is super cute inside. Bathroom was clean. Service was great and staff was very friendly. The wine was terrific! We enjoyed tasting dry whites and reds and were extremely happy with all the wine. The reds were especially smooth and delicious. We also walked around outside a little before we left. There are vineyards and a large pond. You are able to get married here and there is another building to use for a reception. Definitely pay them a visit and try their wine. It's worth the drive!

It is connected to Ivanhoe Ale Works which I also reviewed independently. The cool thing about this place is that you can go back-and-forth between the winery tasting room and the brewery and the friendly servers take care of you no matter where you are. We also got to meet the owner, she was really friendly, down to earth, and we had some good conversations and got the learn a lot about her and what motivates her to do what she does... The wines were pretty good. She had a chocolate rosé that I found really tasty. Their Tempranillo is really and they are a great value. We will be returning soon

I'd highly recommend doing a wine flight--it's only $20 and a great way to try a variety of their wines. I tend to prefer sweeter wines, and the Silver Comet was my favorite by far. The Grande Finale was also really good and worth trying. They also had wine slushies, which were a nice touch--flavors included lime Rita, red sangria, and peach, perfect if you want something refreshing. Overall, great atmosphere, unique setting, and a good mix of options. Would definitely come back!
