Just a short walk off the main drag of Main St. is this honest hideaway, tucked back off the street a bit on Llano St. Worth a search as the place is amazing! Jim and Nancy the couple/owners are great people! The wine tasting room was not very busy when we came in so we got fast service at the tasting/bar area. Not much outdoor seating at all in the front patio except for a few chairs and tables. Very nice design inside, welcoming, open, lots of natural light, a modern feel to it. We both did wine by the glass vs a tasting flight as we found wines that jumped at us both right away. I did a 22 Valley Mills Albarino and loved it, my wife did a Muscat Canelli and also enjoyed that. Our chat with Jim was priceless. What a cool guy and how friendly! We could have sat and talked with him forever I swear. He also let us each try a sample pour of the 20 Rustic Spur Semillon they have and I enjoyed that as well. Lastly was the half glass each we tried of their Lava Bluff 21 Montepulciano. I love my Italian classic grape varietals so this was a nice comparison. Thumbs up all around by both my wife and I. Very good wine! Another must-stop spot in Fred if your in town and want great experience with great Texas wine. read more

I looked at a handful of wineries/tasting rooms on yelp & chose this one for my friends and I to try out. Excellent choice!!! There is a reason Vintners has 5 stars fr all of the reviews. We walked in & were greeted by Dana. Dana took us on a journey through wine! She was friendly & taught me more about wine in an hourish than I'd learned in years. I just drank it occasionally. I'm going to keep this review short & sweet (like some of the wine we tried). We loved this place. We loved the atmosphere, the staff & the wine. Try it out! Cheers! read more

Perfect, friendly, all small local wineries. Don't miss this tasting room! The family that runs it is so much fun and the wines match up. Don't leave without buying a jar of the jam made from the wine grapes to go with your bottles to take home. Yum! read more

As it always goes, we go In to pick up our wine shipment and walk out with a case ! Dana is an awesome host and so knowledgeable about their inventory.

Vintners Hideaway - a display of wine bottles - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Fredericksburg, Texas

This is the best place ever. They are very knowledgeable about wines and will even help novice wine drinkers explore new wines. Dana told us about great restaurants, vineyards, dessert shops in the area and we loved her hospitality. It was definitely the highlight of our trip. We will return to try new wines and just relax with good company. There was also another lady (forgot her name) that bakes and she paired the wines with different cookies/chocolate that enhanced the flavor of the wine and snacks. I can't say enough good things about this place. Just that you will kick yourself if you don't stop by for a tasting and bottle of wine. read more

We had the absolute ideal experience at Vintners, not only was the wine amazing and the building beautiful and welcoming, the entire staff was so knowledgeable and friendly. Being new to the area the ladies working made sure to tell us all the good places to check out in the area when we left. The wine was amazing and opened me up to some new tastes I never knew I loved. The charcuterie board, which also had the owners wife's homemade wine jelly on it and delectable pecan onion bread made locally, was incredible. This was easily my husband and I's favorite spot the entire visit. We were welcomed from the moment we walked in and felt like we were family. Do yourself a favor, hit this side street hideaway spot, you won't regret it. read more

Dana and Gina, played tag team during our visit. They were so fluid how they balanced one another very similar to the wine that we experienced. Wow! Truly amazing experience.

Paired so well with the wine and company. Thank you again and we will be back soon. 5 stars all day read more

Great location in town. Upon arrival, our party was immediately greeted by the friend hosts in their beautiful tasting room. Dana, was an amazing host with a wealth of knowledge that helped me understand the depth of wine even further. Tastings are a mix of wines from various local wineries.

Highly recommend to anybody wanting to have an excellent tasting experience in town. read more

I was really looking forward to seeing Dana Last January we were here and we got such an education of wine. T he et told me she no longer works there. We were not happy with our server who keep leaving saying she'd be back in a hot second. They would ask what we wanted to but on the list was just names not what blend it was. We ended up not liking anything we tasted and I couldn't wait to leave. Will never come back. read more

I am just in town for a week and stumbled across this place. The staff are amazing and so friendly. The lady serving the wine was very informative and knew exactly what to give me! Will be back when I'm back in town. read more

Great wine, great interactions, definitely will be back! It truly is a must stop when visiting Fredericksburg. Highly recommend!

We had a fantastic time with the crew at Vintners Hideaway! Dana was awesome! She took the time to share her knowledge with us and let us explore some great local wines. I learned so much about the wine making process in the span of a tasting! Dana also had some great recommendations for us of other places to see while we are in Fredericksburg, which we've already started working our way through. We will be back to Vintners Hideaway soon!! read more

This was such a great tasting room to find during our trip to Fredericksburg. We loved the experience of being able to taste a variety of wines - it wasn't a set tasting order - we were able to pick and choose which ones to taste based on the feedback of the server, and she did such a wonderful job connecting us to the stories behind each wine. We found some really delicious wines and stocked up before heading home! It was such a wonderful experience and a place we hope to visit again on our next trip to Fredericksburg. read more

This little gem is a must-visit when you're in downtown Fredericksburg. The small tasting room is made to feel spacious with a high ceiling and comfortable seating. Guests can sit at the bar for a highly interactive tasting with folks who truly love the Texas wine industry. Or, relax at your own table inside or out on the sunny patio. What makes this spot unique is they represent 6 to 8 small boutique wineries that are producing 100% Texas wines in small batches. Some of these winemakers don't even have their own tasting room. The tasting room is owned by a local family, who are also grape growers and know the intimate details of wine in the Hill Country. The menu changes since the wines are limited production, and currently they offer 6 tastings of 1oz pours which you choose from a list of about 16 wines. What a great way to get a nice overview of what's possible in our state! The wine pourers are always helpful and can guide you in what wines you may enjoy most, based on your personal preferences. Plus, nearly every time you come in, there is something new on the list for you to try. It's also a good stop if you want a nice cheese and charcuterie board for lunch or an afternoon snack. Whether your a visitor or a local, this should be on your list when you get out for wine tasting in Fredericksburg! read more

I LOVE Vintners!! Wines are from locals. Owner was amazing... explaining wines for us newbies. I would definitely recommend this winery. Add this to your stop. My fav wine is a merlot, but the 2016 Gramps Estate TANNET was incredible. Will be back! read more

This was an amazing experience that would be impossible to top. We came here on recommendation of another vintner in the area and we were not disappointed. The staff were beyond friendly, helpful, and incredibly knowledgeable. We went through an extensive tasting and this is by far the best wine distributor in the area. Their white wine selection was particularly top notch. It is a must do in Fredericksburg. The atmosphere and wine selection is impossible to top, particularly with their selection of local and esoteric offerings. This is the absolute best that Fredericksburg has to offer! read more

We love this winery. The owners are super nice and take time to visit with you when they can. I have found several wines that I love and their charcuterie board is wonderful. We love the family history and memorabilia placed all around the tasting room. Can't wait to visit with them again next month. Highly recommend this gem. read more

First time in Fredericksburg and this was the first winery we tried. This is a family owned winery with an amazing wine-o, Dana! From the time we walked in to the time we walked out we felt at home there! Dana was the perfect person to be serving and teaching us beginners about wine! She had so much knowledge and knew exactly how to give us the tasting. I highly recommend this place to people from beginners to experts on wine! Such a fun atmosphere and awesome place to go while visiting! read more

One of the real gems of Fredericksburg. Truly a fabulous experience. Dana,Ranae, Sherah, and Jim share their hospitality and a passion for wine that even the most casual wine drinker will love. My wife and I switched our wine club membership from one of the larger wineries to Vintner's wine club because their wines are consistently superior, and because they make you feel like family when you visit their tasting room. Arnoldo & Jan C. read more

BEST winery experience in all of Fredericksburg. It's right off of Main Street and the tasting was incredible. Ask for Dana, she is amazing!!! read more

The proprietors are lovely, knowledgeable folks and can tell you all about their wines and the Fredericksburg area in general. They are off Main Street, but it's well worth the short walk. Get away from the madness on the main thoroughfare and visit this place. I promise it's worth it! read more

Had a great afternoon today at Vintners Hideaway, so knowledgeable about their wines and promoting beautiful wines from the local area. Appreciate the concept of a mixed tasting room and the tasting room is so fresh and well representative of the family history. A definitely must go! read more

Some of the best quality Texas wines are being produced by small (we're taking very small) "boutique" wineries. The cost of owning and operating a tasting room can be an expensive and time-consuming undertaking for a winery owner. So, to help alleviate some of the pain associated with this problem, Vintner's Hideaway is here to the rescue! Having opened in April 2018, the owners, Jim and Ranae Mills, feature local hand-crafted wines from Texas. It's a great opportunity for a consumer to taste a selection of top notch 100% Texas wines that they might not otherwise be able to find at large wine shops or bigger tasting rooms. It's a very relaxing and welcoming atmosphere. The staff are not only friendly, but also quite knowledgeable about the different wines and wineries. The small batch wineries currently available are Rustic Spurs, Rivenburgh, Fly Gap, and Dandy, Buena Suerte Vineyards and 1851 Vineyards. When we visited, Vintner's Hideaway was hosting a Holiday Winemaker Tasting event. The winemakers of Rivenburgh (John Rivenburgh), Fly Gap (Brock Estes), and Dandy (Rae Wilson) were present to talk about their wines with consumers individually at tables in very intimate small group settings. Bubblies, Rose', Semillion, Trebbiano, Mourvedre, and Tannat Blends, to list a few were available for tasting. It was great to hear each winemaker express their unique approach and passion they have when crafting each wine. You can discern their dedication and tell that their heart and soul is really into to what they create, like any true artist would feel about their work. This is a cool addition to the Texas wine tasting room experience and to what is available in Fredericksburg. It's a special opportunity to try great small batch wines all in one convenient and friendly location. We highly recommend you stop by and check them out and spend some quality wine time with everyone here! Cheers!! read more

We had a amazing wine tasting experience. We were able to try a wide variety of different wines and the woman helping us tailored it towards our tastes and wines we have had and liked before and she was extremely knowledgeable about the wines and winemakers. We learned a lot. This place has a great concept of highlighting a variety of smaller and lesser known vineyards. read more

Me and my Girlfriend took a weekend getaway to Fredericksburg. We hopped around until we were suggested to check this place out. Neither of us are really knowledgeable about wine, our plan was just to try as many places out as we could. We ended up staying here for around 2 and a half hours. The Owner and Dana gave us more than just wine. Dana took her time explaining and educating us, teaching us what to look for and side by side tastings after going through their aerator. We had such a great time. They have a few other options other than their own wines, and the owner treated them all the same, suggesting others and having us try them. I really never expected to get a little chemistry lesson along with such great hosting from the entire staff. Only a block off the main strip, definitely check this place out. We ended up buying a couple of their bottles and an aerator. The experience we had far surpassed all expectations. read more

Excellent Wine selection and excellent service. Great option if you are downtown.
