BREAKING NEWS!!!! Adega Vinho on A has opened for business…read more If like me, you're a fan of Adega Vinho than you will be as excited as I am. The new tasting room on Main and Adam's is located two doors down from Martini's Seafood or across from Market Platz on Adam's Street. Andy, Elena, and Michael picked a perfect location. I am able to get a glass to go while waiting on my reservation at Martini's or carry it with me as I tour the various events at Market Plazt. The downtown location has the same vibe as the Stonewall location with a twist. At AVonA you will be able to select from 16 wines from the automated wine dispensery. Each wine is kept at the perfect temperature. EVEN BETTER, is you can select from a variety of 3 different pours. A tasting pour (1.5 oz), glass (5 oz), and a TEXAS Glass (7.5oz). options. Most of the wines you find at the Stonewall location will be available at the tasting room downtown, however I am told that as the bottle new wines and some vintages may only be available at the Stonewall location. If you want to relax and purchase a bottle, that's an option as well. I absolutely LOVE the new location. Having late night hours on the weekends is HUGE for me and those who are looking for a late night location that offers 100% Texas wines. That is one of my favorite things about Adega Vinho. They are 100% Texas and unapologetic. They proudly support Texas Grape Growers but more importantly, they produce excellent wines.

You can't go wrong when you walk into a winery for the first time, only to see a familiar face…read more Jeremy. We've run into him at several wineries over the past 12ish years. He knows his wines and when I saw him, I knew we had found a great winery. The vibe is exactly what we were looking for on a Friday afternoon after a half day of work. Comfortable. Chill. Food truck with thin crust pizza and the most AMAZING truffle risotto. And good wine. All the wines were solid and indicative of well crafted Mediterranean (aka Texas) varietals. Some were fun, some were serious but all worth a try. Our favs were the Tannat and Semillion, but we'll be back when their Touriga's start getting released. (Hopefully later this year). I've seen so many good reviews on them, I can't wait to try them!

I recommend this stop along the road from Austin to Fredericksburg!

My husband and I found Arrowhead Creek a couple of summers ago while staying in the area. We've…read morebeen to Fredericksburg many times over the years - watching the number of wineries grow, and the big wineries become more commercial. Where were the smaller, family-owned wineries, with relaxing tasting rooms and personal touches that existed 10-15 years ago? Then we found Arrowhead Creek - it checked all the boxes and then some. We got a tour and family history, saw the start of the patch wall (which continues to grow), tasted some great wines, met the fantastic family and staff family, and -- relaxed. We continue to visit anytime we can get away, are always greeted like old friends, and enjoy this gem of a property on the Pedernales. We highly recommend ACV if you're looking for great wine, fun atmosphere, and supporting a family business!

After visiting, we get that! A beautiful place. Much time and money spent on creating this venue... gardens, buildings, everything is gorgeous! The wines were good too. Aaron was our server, he did a great job, very knowledgeable about the wines. We grabbed a couple of bags of Torres chips from the store next door! We tasted a flight of whites and a flight of wines. We preferred the whites, including the Mourvèdre rose. On the red side, the Tempranillo was outstanding. We left with a few bottles, the ones mentioned plus the sauv blanc. Worth a visit!

Plenty of parking. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here on a Sunday afternoon wanting to try more wine. There were a handful of people sitting inside and only a few people sitting outside. We got the normal wine tasting and service is great here because they were able to adjust to the taste profile and offer a tailored tasting guide that helps garner interest in the wine. I love that. The wines were good and the standout for me was the malbec. THE FINAL BAMBOO: A wine tasting here was around $25. Service is impeccable and you just can't beat the views here.

They apparently revamped the entire space and looks modernized. We came here for tasting first, like their other locations, you're allowed to taste up to four of their wines of your choosing. They have a mix of Texas and California grown wines that are processed in their facility. Eve was our tasting ambassador and she did a great job going through each wine and going through the recent changes in their premium memberships. They also have a restaurant on site that only take walk-ins for members only. Their outdoor patio space was also really, really nice with a view of their vineyards. We were disappointed they were out of some of their appetizers but we made do with the options they had available. All their food was great but their ahi tuna wontons were bomb in particular. This is their only kid-friendly and dog friendly location so we'll consider bringing our dog next time.

We came here recentlyfor a bachelorette party, and after just having a terrible experience at Augusta Vin, Barelle completely turned our day around. Randy was our server, and he was AMAZING. He made sure we had a blast throughout our entire visit, totally redeeming the day for the bride. The wine? Fantastic! We all fell in love with one of their Rosés -- easily one of our favorites of the day. Plus, we had a private room all to ourselves, and it was the cutest space, with a charming book wall and unique rustic decor. It made the whole experience feel intimate and perfect for our group. I also love that Barelle is a woman-owned vineyard, and all the wines they produce and serve come from female winemakers. It's such a great touch that makes me want to support them even more. All in all, Barelle Vineyards nailed it for us. Great wine, an amazing vibe, and fantastic service. It was the perfect place to celebrate, and I'll definitely be back!
