I have only been to the wine festivals. They are a good value for the price. I like how there are no limits on wine samples. Lines can be a little unruly at times, or a bit awkward depending on the event space. No high pressure to purchase anything extra. Nice way to spend the afternoon. read more

Great wine samples and yummy bites! Would do this again! Great afternoon fun for a reasonable cost.

I attended Wino Fest last year with a group of friends. I had a great time with the girls. I would definitely attend again.

This review is for the Wine Fest in Round Rock. After reading the variety of reviews, we weren't sure what to expect. We were greeted warmly and given a quick rundown of where things were. There were a total of 10 wineries represented - a few were outside, the others inside with some food vendors. I think I read somewhere these events described as "eclectic" and that was accurate. Flower wines and fruit (no grape) wines, a couple of jalapeño-infused wines, joined the lineup of Texas varietals. All of the vendors were friendly and enjoyed talking about their products. We only recognized two of the wineries but enjoyed the opportunity to taste several vineyards in one place and one tasting price. read more

My experience with Texas Winos started off on a positive note. In June 2025, I attended one of their Wino Fest events in Magnolia and thoroughly enjoyed it. Based on that experience, I booked the Fredericksburg Vintner Winery Tour & Italian Lunch for my birthday in July 2025. Unfortunately, less than an hour before the tour was scheduled to begin, it was canceled. We were notified by email that the scheduled driver had experienced a medical emergency and the backup driver was already assisting with another event. The company apologized and offered to double our winery tour credits, provide free tickets to any 2025 Wino Fest, and allow us to attend a Boat Bash on Lake Travis that same day. While I appreciated the gesture, the Boat Bash offer was impossible to accept. We received the email around 10:00 a.m., and the event began at 11:30 a.m. We were already in Fredericksburg, so there was no realistic way to drive to Lake Travis in time. Although my birthday plans were ruined, I understood that emergencies happen and accepted the four winery tour credits and two Wino Fest tickets for future use. A year later, for my birthday in July 2026, I decided to use my credits to book the same Fredericksburg winery tour. We arrived at the designated meeting location early and waited for the tour to begin. The scheduled start time came and went, but no driver or tour vehicle ever arrived. Even more frustrating, there was no communication whatsoever to let us know there was a delay, cancellation, or any other issue. I immediately called, texted, and emailed the company but did not receive a response for more than an hour. Richard eventually replied by email, stating that the driver had picked up the vehicle on time and that their digital roster showed the other attendees had joined the tour. This only added to my confusion because I had arrived early at the exact meeting location provided in their confirmation link. I even replied with a screenshot from their own link showing where I had been instructed to meet, but I never received another response that day. The following day, I again requested an explanation for what had happened and asked for a refund. I received no response to either request. After two consecutive years of having my birthday plans ruined by this company, I can no longer recommend them. My communications have been with Richard, and based on my experience, I feel I was treated unfairly and ignored when I tried to resolve the situation. I'm sharing my experience so others can make an informed decision before booking and hopefully avoid the disappointment that I experienced. read more

I purchased 3 wine tour tickets for a total of $335.13 through Texas Winos in September 2025 and went on the wine tour in October 2025. The wine tour itself was fun. However, Texas Winos has subsequently charged me $335.13 for tours in December 2025 and July 2026 for a total of $670.26 that I did not book nor authorize. I am currently in communication with Richard about a refund/reversal on my credit card. After reading reviews here I am not hopeful. I also filed a complain with the Better Business Bureau. Do not book with this company. read more

We had an amazing time on the actual wine tour, but unfortunately the customer service afterward completely ruined the experience. I purchased Groupons for my birthday tour on August 23 and entered the Groupon code when booking. I was then charged an additional $282.98 directly, meaning I paid twice for the same reservation. I have emailed multiple times, provided documentation showing the duplicate charge, and have received no response. We are now going into October and no one has even attempted to contact me or resolve the issue. There were also concerns during the tour itself. While I was trying to enjoy my birthday lunch with family who had flown in for the day, I witnessed our driver arguing with winery staff over what appeared to be a payment issue. It was uncomfortable, and looking back now, raises even more concerns about how this company handles its business. Paying over $500 for my own birthday because of a duplicate charge is ridiculous, but being completely ignored after repeated attempts to fix it is even worse. I am now disputing the charge with my credit card company and reporting the business to the Better Business Bureau. I will never book with this company again, and I strongly urge others to spend their money with a company that handles billing honestly and actually responds when there is a problem. read more

It was our first time at the WINO FEST (Houston) after wanting to try them for years and we're so glad we decided to go. We absolutely loved had a great time and recommended! The host Vernon was very helpful, positive, personable, and informative. Two of the vineyard representatives weren't completely welcoming nicely putting it but overall a great experience! read more

We had an amazing time last year at Wino fest. We ended up buying a lot of yummy wines!

Went to Texas Winos in Houston. What a fun event! Not only they have wine vendors, but they have food/snack vendors too! I was expecting more vendors at the event, but not too bothered since my feet hurt towards the end of the event. My favorite wine/vendor was the Esperanza. They had this cocktail mixer that was memorable. The dragon fruit cosmo. I tried to buy a bottle, but it's not available yet. The event had a live band that played music, it could be hard to hear your party and vendors when they try to explain their history or what they are serving. Overall great time and would come back to a wino event. read more

CAREFUL! While they promote some great deals initially to enjoy a boat tour and swim on Lake Travis, months later they will CHARGE YOUR CARD AGAIN, repeatedly!

I've been a few times to the Houston events with friends and always had fun! It's a comfortable, open inside space to try a bunch of Texas wines and some snacks. Some are pretty sweet, but I've always found a few bottles I wanted to bring home. Looking forward to the next time! read more

I bought tickets a while ago and the event was canceled. I was contacted by the TexasWino team and they apologized. I was consistently updated with new events to attend. We went for my boyfriend's birthday and it was really nice. We tasted and bought a lot of wine! There weren't as many Vendors/Wine makers as I initially thought would be there. But it was still a good time! I let him do most of the drinking because I was the designated driver. Overall the atmosphere was nice and so were the winemakers. The Yeehaw from Spirit Hills flower winery was my absolute favorite! Hopefully they are regulars because I need another case! read more

Texas Winos - The best wine I tasted at the wine fest! - Party & Event Planning Near Me

Such a great experience with Texas Winos! I loved getting the opportunity to discover wineries from all across Texas and sample wines that I may not have otherwise come across. There was a great mix of vendors, tasty snacks, music, and plenty to explore throughout the event. I especially appreciated the custom-etched wine glass that was included as a souvenir. It was a unique touch that made the experience feel extra special and gave me a fun reminder of the day. I came expecting to have a good time and left with new wine discoveries, a great keepsake, and even more appreciation for Texas wineries. I would definitely attend again! read more

Texas Winos - Texas Winos event | Houston, TX | August 1, 2026 - Party & Event Planning Near Me

Ahem.... I would like to give a toast. A toast to meeting great people selling local wines and bringing good times to an area near you. I have to say this was the very 1st event from Winos that I attended and the location I visited was at the beautiful property at the Cypress Alamo in the Cypress area near Houston for which I didn't know even existed and it's close to my neighborhood. It was on an amazing fall day and the coordination of the event was spectacular as Texas Winos emailed communications regularly with sign-in times for which you could modify to fit your schedule. I was assigned a later time but moved it to earlier in the morning. Understand that once you are there you can stay as long as you want but they try to control check in times to help reduce crowds all at one time. It worked out very well as there were zero lines on entry and plenty of space and winery's to keep everyone spread out pretty well. Most was inside and some where also outside. There was many wine vendors as well as food and sangria vendors. It was a great tipsy time with no over drinking and places to sit and mingle outside as well. They even supply rinsing areas to refreshen your glass as you go from vendor to vendor. I do have to give them 4 of 5 stars on the event however because for them to have only local wineries, the cost of every single wine bottle started at $40 to $110 a bottle. The average cost of wines in the US sits anywhere from $7 to $20. When wines go over that we are talking some higher end wines from some more known wineries. You would think at a wine tasting they have more varieties of wines that are more affordable as a local winery. I spent over $200 on just a few bottles just to support local. Some of the best wines cost much less than what you can find here. Unfortunately I did not find a wow factor in the tasting to justify the cost of even their lowest wine at $40 a bottle. But for the event and the hosting and the amazing ability to meet and greet new people it's certainly a 4 star event for the admission. Cheers and Prosper! read more

I very much enjoyed taking the Wino bus tour from Austin. It was a convenient way to try some new wines without having to worry about transportation. My friends and I had a blast and can't wait to go again! read more

I always love when these wine festivals pop up on my email! They offer so many amazing wineries and other vendors, I've always taken bottles home with me. They have great music and love singers to make it a fun atmosphere while you sip away. I personally enjoy the tastings and drinking aspect, but for those who want to learn about the wine making and the flavors, etc. the wine vendors really take the time to teach and inform. I love these wine fests so much. ALL of the profits go to these small wineries, so it is definitely worth the money. read more

BEWARE. We used Texas Winos for a tour in March and were charged $982.40 six months later without our authorization. They acknowledged the charge and promised a refund, but have since stopped responding. We've now found other customers reporting similar unauthorized charges. Check your bank statements if you've ever booked with them. read more

I love attending Wino events. Every event is a different experience you get to discover new vendors, enjoy some amazing wines, meet new people, and network while having a good time. It's always a whole vibe, and I look forward to seeing what each event has to offer! read more

Absolutely amazing experience! My husband and I go to a ton of these and they never disappoint! Great tasting wine and we even made some friends! Would highly recommend! read more

Great selection and variety of wineries were present to sample. All the companies were delighted to share information about the winery they represented and to have us try several or sometimes all the styles they featured for the event. It was nice that it was a small intimate group which allowed for a more personable experience. read more

An event that o attended last year was nice! I was able to try wines from all different parts of Texas as well as some delicious treats!

The crowd size was wonderful! It wasn't too crowded to enjoy. A portion of the event was indoors so we didn't have to be in the heat all day. We had an absolute wonderful time! read more

We had a blast! Can't wait to do it again. This is great for a trip to explore Texas wines. I spent too much on bottles I liked but outside of that it was fun. read more

I had an amazing time with my mom who is not into wine and she even left with a couple bottles.

What a great event! I will admit i was leery because it sounded to good to be true! (Wine glass, 40 samples, no huge crowds ) It did not disappoint! I loved meeting all the small business owners and sampling all the varieties of wine and wine infused goodies There was even chocolate and coffee infused treats to be sampled . Of course we got some things to take home as well. I DEF will be doing this again.. Loved the small crowds and the ease of check in!! Add it to the LOVE LIST read more

Indoor/outdoor event, limited parking, non-traditional wine tasting. Very nice people, but it was more of their concoction of wine. Indoor vendors in main building should have a wine tasting in between each food vendor. Music was such a nice touch outside. read more

I booked a wine tour for my birthday last year with about 30 friends, and we had an absolute blast! This was actually my second time doing one of their tours, which included three winery stops and a delicious lunch. The wine selections were fantastic, the service was top-notch, and the relaxing bus ride made for a perfect escape from Houston. Our driver was professional, and the whole experience was well-organized and fun--everyone was there for good vibes and great wine. I've also attended a few of the wine festivals they've hosted, and they always feature a great variety of Texas wineries. The pricing is very reasonable for everything you get, whether you're doing a winery bus tour or attending one of their festivals at different locations. Highly recommend for wine lovers or anyone just looking for a fun and memorable outing! read more

Beware of Double Charges On two separate occasions, Texas Winos charged my credit card twice for the same purchase. The first time, I reached out to them and received a word-for-word, copy-and-paste response that didn't resolve the issue. They never refunded my money -- thankfully my credit card company stepped in and issued the refund. I decided to give them another chance, but lo and behold, they did it again. Same response, same lack of action. Beware -- this company has a pattern of double charging and not returning funds. I am still waiting on my $800 refund. In my opinion, they are scammers. Check your credit card statements closely if you choose to do business with them. read more

I have been to several Texas Winos events in the Houston area and they are always a hit! I love how they rotate different smaller, local wineries and vendors. The event spaces have been nice, clean, and spacious. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The crowd size is usually manageable as it is spaced out over several hours so everyone isn't entering at once. I will continue to return as long as there's an event to attend in my area! The admission fee is very reasonable. Check for specials on the site. My visits last for around 2 hours but I have stayed up to 4 hours if the crowd was fun this experience is best for those who like to have fun, aren't wine snobs and are open to trying new things in a laidback environment. read more

Very poor experience. I invested $500 in the company as requested and they guaranteed a payback after a year. I have the original contract and have tried to contact them by email over 10 times, certified mail, called all numbers, and communicated through the BBB. They will not respond to any of these. It's now been over 2 years since my initial investment and I've been ripped off. They even said they would give me a welcome gift, which I never received. I was only able to use 1 of the free wino events because they would not respond to emails about providing me with the additional free admission tickets. read more

I attended a Texas Winos event on December 22 in downtown San Antonio. The event was amazing and the wine was great. As always, I spent quite a bit of money for some really good wine, cheese, and snacks while I was there. I didn't take any photos, but left with weighted arms. Looking forward to the next fun event. read more
