Today marked the first time I actually drove in and parked to see what's inside. I was meeting a colleague to meet with the manager to solicit their participation in an event in September this year. Wow, the people are very nice and generally helpful. We walked around a bit and checked out their facilities. They have a dining area that serves lunch and dinner and brunch on Sundays. My colleague and I tasted some of their beers and we found out that their beer is delicious! I liked their Peach Radler and actually got a glass. Their German pilsner is also surprisingly good too. They have plenty of other choices but these were two of many. Overall, I'm coming back with my wife on Sunday to try out their brunch offerings. The staff is very proud of their brunch service so I made a reservation. Overall, this place looks first class all the way!

My wife expects 5 star resorts and she said this place exceeded the typical 5 star experience. The bedding, linens, amenities were awesome. They had live music and great food and drink options at the head cabin. Every cabin felt private and unique and the babbling creek and ponds along the Creekside were so relaxing to sit by with lots of Adirondack chairs overlooking the creek and rocking chairs on the cabin porches. We also chose this place because they allowed my Australian Shepard to come (only some cabins). The whole experience was amazing and only a 5 minute drive to the main strip. Don't miss a tour of Signor Vineyards, a 10 minute drive West. The most beautiful vineyard and cool experience!

The excellent service did did not stop there. We were treated like family, and we really enjoyed walking the beautiful, scenic grounds and hanging out at "The Club" on property!

NOTES: - Reservations: available online through Resy - Parking: free street parking nearby within walking distance - Online ordering: available on their website through ToastTab for pickup - The bistro is located on the bottom level of the building (go in the doors and head down the stairs) THE HIGHS: - Beautiful interior with moody lighting and comfortable seating - Attentive servers and dishes are cleared quickly - Food is presented beautifully - Grilled lamb rack is PHENOMENAL - Their "legendary cookies" are thick, chunky, and delicious THE LOWS: - Very pricey and the menu prices were more expensive than what was on their website (lamb rack online was $47 but at the restaurant was $56) - Pistachio tiramisu barely had any pistachio flavor... there was a sprinkle of crushed pistachio on top but that was about it and the flavor didn't carry throughout THE PRICE: Expensive for the portion size (good quality but not justified by the price) - Large blood orange sparkling water ($12) - Seafood gratin ($28) - Mediterranean pizza ($31) - Grilled lamb rack ($56) - Pistachio tiramisu ($19) - Dark chocolate hazelnut cookie ($8) The total was $166.71 after tax ($12.71) but before tip. BEST BITES: - Grilled lamb rack (cooked perfectly, juicy, flavorful, and the herbed tzatziki on the side is amazing) - Dark chocolate hazelnut cookie (get one to go if you're too full... you won't regret it) THE VERDICT: This was my first visit to Vaudeville (it came highly recommended) and I enjoyed my meal overall. With how expensive it is, I don't think I'll be returning and probably would only recommend it to others if they really want to splurge and don't have any other options.

There are great animals on the property too, including chickens, turkeys, horses, rabbits, a bull, a llama and two very friendly dogs.

Located just off the Old San Antonio Road near Fredericksburg, one of the newest wineries has…read morejoined the Texas Hill Country family. This venture has been a dream for owners Mike & Rosann Mitrione. Their first vineyard was established in the Texas High Plains in 2018, where they planted around 15 varietals across 27 acres. In 2021, they began designing and planning their new 38-acre Texas Hill Country vineyard. They started planting their estate vineyard in 2022 and have now expanded to 9 acres of vines including Albariño, Petite Sirah, Montepulciano, Syrah, and Aglianico. Since opening to the public in summer of 2023, they've maintained a steadfast commitment to producing 100% Texas wines. When you enter the tasting room, you will immediately notice the impressive Texas granite structure adorned with a symbol that reflects the Ross family's core values: Faith, Family, Friends, and Fellowship. The two-story, eco-friendly tasting facility is semi-circular and built into the hillside - reminiscent of a piazza in Italy. It has an upscale vibe, high-end design, and comfort in mind lending to its artistic flair. Facing east, the tasting room stays cooler both inside and out, enhancing the experience. Another notable feature are the large tables made from repurposed old pecan trees found on the property. Well known Texas winemaker Tim Drake has been helping in the crafting of some very fine wine here. Most focus has been primarily on Italian style wines which reflects the owner's wine travels. Most grapes are sourced from the High Plains vineyard estate with some future Hill Country estate wines to come. First to sample was the '23 Sauvignon Blanc which is sourced from the High Plains estate vineyard. Citrus & melons will be the first notes to light up your wine palate followed by zesty acidity. The second white wine sampled was the '23 Bisaccia. This Italian style blend, named after Michael's grandfather's Italian town, was crafted with 57% Trebbiano, 39% Albariño, and 4% Pinot Grigio. It is dry with dried apricot notes and minerality. An extra white wine treat was the Windswept. This Rhone style blend (yes, departure from the Italian theme, but that's ok) is a blend of 52% Viognier and 48% Roussanne. It is a lovely lighter Rhone style wine with buttery notes, a tango between apricot and pear, and a hint of minerality. Moving to the Rosé wines, the first to sample was the '24 Sangiovese Rosé. It had a pink colored hue with notes of watermelon and strawberry coupled with good acids. It also had more of a Provence style feel to it for an added pleasant. The next Rosé wine sipped was the '24 Vega. It is Malbec based with some raspberry notes and a nice soft and refreshing feel. Moving into the reds, the first to sample was the '23 Grenache. It was aged in Russian oak (yes, for real), exhibited a deep brick rusty color, lots of good fruit forwardness and a touch of smoke. Next, was the '22 Piazza Rossa. This super Tuscan style wine has 67% Sangiovese, 22% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 11% Merlot. To say it has a big nose is an understatement, but you will also be impressed by its deep dark color, and notes of fig. Plus, the finish is to die for! Saving the best for last red to sip, was the '22 Envisage. This right bank Bordeaux style wine (yes, not exactly Italian, but still great) was carefully crafted with 46% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 16% Malbec. It has nice rich dark fruit, some baking spices, good tannins and acidity, and a smooth finish. Overall, it was a very fine and enjoyable tasting session with everything being spot on. When dreams are realized, magic happens. You can see this not only in the quality wines produced, but the tasting room design, décor, and cool vibes. There is a food truck on site that will whip up some good eats to pair with your wine. You will experience great hospitality here as well. The team is very professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to help ensure you have the tasting experience you desire. You will feel well cared for and comfortable here and will want to return. Cheers!

We were kind of concerned as it is in the opposite direction of all the other places. Upon arrival we were greeted by the host in the outside foyer and taken to our table ( they take reservations but we did not have one). We were sat and promptly greeted by our server. She explained the options for tasting to us and informed us that there was a food truck onsite as well. We opted to do the red wine tasting . The tasting started with a Grenache ( full bodied, very fruity but not sweet) the grapes really shine, next was the Sangiovese which was even better. We went through a series of 5 wines that all were made with exceptional care as none were left to waste. My favorite was the 1 Sangiovese, 2 Grenache, 3 Tempranillo. We also purchased a pizza from the food truck onsite. It was a margarita pizza ( large enough for two to share as a medium snack). If your hungry you made need more. They have more than pizza as well. We bought a bottle of Sangiovese and will definitely return. Excellent live performer and extraordinary service !!

The Edge is a multi-purpose venue that serves as a restaurant when not hosting private events. It's not a winery and doesn't produce its own wines. Instead, it curates a selection of wines and offers a solid food menu for those looking for something other than ridiculously overpriced charcuterie boards. Now that we've got that straight, let's dive in. The Edge is the chameleon of Fredericksburg and adapts to what guests need. It sits on a beautiful property with stunning views, it offers ample space for large parties and plenty of TVs--perfect for catching football games during the season. The food? Definitely worth mentioning. The food options are predominantly American. I ordered a burger and a Pizza Roll and I couldn't stop raving about that damn roll (FYI, it's not a Totino's sized pizza roll). Despite the initial confusion, The Edge turned out to be a great find along the 290 Wine Shuttle route. Service: not the greatest, lots of lax young employees. Food took a while and was inconsistent in our party. Be prepared to learn the art of patience.
