A fun winery featuring South African and Chilean wine! My husband, friends and I stopped by on a Saturday. They were closed for a pick up party, but they lets us stay and hang for $10pp. The wine was not too bad in my option. They have a ton of different wines, but the wine club only bottles are the best. The restaurant is covered with taxidermy all over the walls. Best part, they have kangaroos in the back it get really hot in the winery, so bring a fan!

Boogie was an amazing host. Safari was a unique experience filled with animals and wine . I really enjoyed getting to know the staff and the history of the wines in the area.

What a lovely afternoon at Safari Winery. The staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They are upfront that they do not make wines, but import organic wines. No sulfites!! No headaches! The space is upscale rustic, with a beautiful back seating area that featured live music. We really enjoyed all of the wines and ended buying a membership, so now we have an excuse to head back this fall.

If you're visiting Fredericksburg and don't stop by Safari Winery, you are seriously missing out--especially if you get the chance to meet Peggy! Peggy absolutely MADE our experience unforgettable. From the moment we walked in, she greeted us like old friends and brought such warmth, humor, and genuine passion to the tasting. You can tell she truly loves what she does, and that energy is contagious.

We went for a tasting and had the best time! Alyssa was super knowledgeable and made the experience so much fun!

We loved this place! We'd stopped here on a previous visit and enjoyed it, so we figured we'd try it again - this time with our small older dog. Safari Winery is dog-friendly. They have a lot of outdoor seating - all of which is suitable for dogs. We took advantage of that. Tinker loved being with us and she enjoyed the space. As the sun got more intense in our outdoor space, we asked if we could bring little Tinker indoors. They said 'yes'. They were so kind about it. It helps that Tinker is a small dog and super friendly and a non-barker. Joslyn was our server and she was very kind and helpful. On our next visit to Fredericksburg, we'll definitely be back to Safari Winery.

JENNIFER, Thank you! Myself & the girls really enjoyed our wine tasting with you! You had lots of fun info for us! The ambiance of the animals everywhere was so much fun. Can't wait to see you next time!

We had an amazing experience at Safari Winery, and a huge part of that was thanks to Shari! From the moment we walked in, Shari made us feel welcome and comfortable. She is incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to explain each wine in a way that was easy to understand but still very informative. You can tell she truly knows her craft and has a real passion for wine. She didn't just pour samples -- she shared stories, flavor notes, and helpful tips that made the tasting feel personal and engaging. The wines themselves were outstanding. Every pour had great flavor, balance, and character. It was honestly hard to pick a favorite because they were all so good. Shari's recommendations were spot-on and really elevated the entire experience. If you're visiting Safari Winery, ask for Shari. She turned a simple wine tasting into a memorable experience we'll be talking about for a long time. Highly recommend both the winery and Shari's exceptional hospitality!

We came here on a Sunday for one of their wine pick up events. Our friends are members. This winery was absolutely amazing. Place was poppin! So much hustle and bustle and vibes were just on point. We got to do a wine tasting of 4 wines. They took care of us relatively quickly. Their wines were full bodied and smooth. I did not try anything that I didn't like. They also had a lot of complimentary food to include berries, charcuterie and turkey sliders. You can def spend an entire afternoon here and leave 100% satisfied.

They have a big shop with a lot of gardening themed tools and items, and they sell plants as well. They have a cafeteria with tables and chairs that sells your standard fast food options, and they sell things like homemade salsa, jam, and of course bottles of wine in there too. The thing I like most about Wildseed: they have a path you can walk around that stretches between their vineyards and ends at a little fence facing the mass of wildflower fields that bloom in the spring with red, blue, and yellow wildflowers. If you go at the time it's in bloom, you'll be blessed with SUCH an incredible view, and all the little butterflies and bees zoom around while you walk the little trail/path. I think it's so lovely that it's been around/available to walk all these years. They do also have a little garden aspect at the beginning of the trail with a pond etc. that you can look at. It's mad cute. Definitely pay this spot a visit if you're passing through Fredericksburg!

They actually have three locations including Burnett and the mother ship in San Saba. The winery was named after a 400+ year-old Oak Tree near the San Saba winery, which has been used for weddings for centuries, starting with the Native Americans. Wedding Oak Winery has a very nice boutique style tasting room with fantastic wine and a member's tasting room which will comfortably hold 10 people. Our tasting hostess was Heather McHenry, the daughter of owner Michael McHenry and WOW did she do a fantastic job! She was extremely passionate about the wine and incredibly engaging to talk to! If you didn't know, Wedding Oak Winery won 10 medals at the 2022 San Francisco Chronicle International Wine Competition, the nation's top wine competition (think USA Wine Olympics)! We were stationed in Monterey, California, while in the Navy and I can tell you 10 medals is a HUGE deal for a Napa winery, much less a Texas winery in our beloved and humble Hill Country! Texas Viticulture is like Rodney Dangerfield "they get no respect!," when in fact they can stand toe-to-toe with the big boys in Napa, Sonoma, and Paso Robles! We particularly loved the Tuscany styled white wine Trebbiano ($28) a Silver medal winner, man this would go great in an anti-pasta with some parmigiana cheese, anchovies, grilled veggies or clams. Their red choices were superb and three of their Silver medalist red wines really stood out. It amazes me how the "old world" grapes thrive in our Texas climate! The first a varietal originally from Spain in the Aragon region west of Barcelona, their Carignan/Tannat blend "Red Wind" ($32), this should pair well with some Texas BBQ Brisket! Next a varietal originally from the Italian Abruzzo region (think halfway up the back of the boot on the Adriatic Sea), Montepulciano ($32), I'm thinking.... Eggplant Parmigiana! And finally originally a French Madiran varietal (2 hours South of Bordeaux) styled Tannat ($40), maybe a French Dip sandwich at Vaudeville Bistro! Finally we tried their "Just Married," a superb Moscato, did you know the grape is soooo sweet, fruit flies swarm around them, the Italian and Spanish word for fly is "mosca!" .... I'm dreaming of having this with a Ferrero Raefaello Almond and Coconut treat! Yum Yum. If you didn't notice the prices for their outstanding wine are incredibly affordable and this is one of the places you can enjoy a picnic lunch on their patio! So impressed we were, we signed up and became members! BRAVO! Wedding Oak.... See you soon!

We shared a few bottles of rosé and spent way longer than we planned because the atmosphere was just so inviting. The wine bar is set inside a beautifully restored historic home, with several cozy rooms that make it feel like you're relaxing in someone's stylish living room rather than a typical wine bar. It has such a warm, welcoming vibe. We loved that they also have a piano bar with live music in the evenings, it would be such a fun place to spend an evening! The owner even stopped by our table to check on us, chat for a bit, and make sure we were enjoying ourselves. That personal touch really stood out and made us feel so welcome. Whether you're looking for a wine flight, a bottle to share with friends, or just a cozy place to unwind after shopping on Main Street, I highly recommend stopping by.

The two stars is NOT for the piano player Pierson Keating, who is great, for whom I would give 5 Stars.

I have a strong understanding of TABC rules and regulations, and this question was misplaced and pretty rude. Pierson, the pianist, asked my group to sing a song we requested because he was unsure of the lyrics, then the staff asked the group to sit down. Not sure if this place is catered to the older crowd or just not accustomed to having girls who like to have a good time, but I wouldn't come back here if you payed me. Staff 2.7/10. Food 6.7/10.
