The winery in this area that started it all. If you want to know more about Texas wine - don't pass up this gem. This small winery has grown and grown which is just fabulous. Most of the winery owners, wine makers, tasting room staff have all worked at Becker at some point in their careers. We did a small group tastings and really loved working with our guide Cynthia who modified the standard tour to help accommodate our schedule crunch and the wine knowledge of those in the group. Excellent work Cynthia!!! read more

I've been to Becker multiple times through the years and it's proven itself as my favorite. It's so much so that I joined their wine club (my first wine club) during COVID, when they were shut down for tastings. I wanted to support this beautiful winery with its delicious, well priced wines. After my second shipment of wines, I was able to enjoy some of the perks of my wine club membership (aka complimentary wine tastings). I went with a few friends to do an early Friday outdoor wine tasting. If you didn't know, Becker was one of the last wineries to re-open so it shouldn't have surprised me how seriously they were taking everything. You have to have a reservation (we did) and all of the tables (outdoor-only option) were much further than 6ft apart. In addition to that, we did see them cleaning the tables in between reservations. My friends and I enjoyed our leisurely outdoor tasting and were able to feel a bit of normalcy. It was so enjoyable. Tasting prices seemed a bit higher than before but I'm sure they have to account for the fact that they can't have as many tastings. read more

Becker Vineyards is by far one of my favorite wineries in Fredericksburg! Their wine is superb and the place is just beautiful. We've always had a great experience when visiting and this last time was even better. Due to COVID-19 they've changed a few things, but here are a few things you need to know before visiting: - Due to COVID-19 they only accept reservations. We visited on a weekday without a reservation and were lucky to grab a spot at their outdoor area, but if you are planning on visiting on a weekend please call ahead. - All wine has to be paired with food. They've created pre-fixed tasting options so that is easier for the public. - Everyone must be wearing a face mask when walking around the property. - They have a very generous military discount. - There are no tours of the winery at this time. Thank you Becker Vineyard for the 5-star experience! Can't wait to go back and taste more of their delicious wine. read more

Probably the best place we've visited so far in Fredericksburg and just okay. The staff were okay, the wine was okay, and the venue is beautiful. We just had higher hopes based on the reviews and advertising for Fredericksburg. Guess if we were reviewers for magazines or news crews or something we'd have better experiences. read more

My friend and I had selected Becker Vineyards as our last wine tasting stop of the day, and it was wonderful! This place is by appointment only, and we were seated right away even though we showed up 30 minutes before our scheduled time. Our waiter was very friendly, did a great job explaining everything, and really took his time with us. We tasted 6 different wines, and we ended up with a bottle of the Cinsaut. It's a great-tasting, easily drinkable red wine! We also got to take home our glasses and we ended up purchasing a lovely lavender bath bomb. Would return! read more

Becker Vineyards - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Fredericksburg, Texas

Of three vineyards we visited on a recent tasting tour, Becker was the most expensive and most impersonal. Wouldn't pick it the next visit.

We had been wine club members for a long time and only recently noticed the downturn of employees. The last two times were had traveled there (6 hours) to visit, the employees were rude and insulting. The wine is good, but not good enough to put up with rude employees. We have canceled the wine club and have decided not to return to this winery. Messina Hof has our business now. read more

Becker Vineyards - Welcome rosé on the covered patio. Lots of room for kiddos to run around - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Fredericksburg, Texas

While the setting and grounds were pretty, the wine tasting greeter (lady) and two pourers (men) were rude. They should rename their "wine tasting " "wine sipping" because all you got was three sips out of a glass. You can't possibly make an assessment of the wine with such a small portion. SKIP this place if wine tasting is on your agenda in the Fredericksburg area. I think the wines were overpriced for the quality but again, how can I know with 3 measly sips (or 2 tastes)?? read more

I really enjoy the wine and tastings they have at Becker Vineyards. They have won many awards and their wine has a distinct flavor. Make sure you have a reservation before going. I also love their wine glass, and I'm glad we get to take it home after the tasting. They have a wide tasting bar and the staff are friendly. read more

My family and I were looking for a winery to visit on our vacation during the 4th and we had such an amazing time at Becker! We went around 2pm. The lady in the red glasses at the concierge desk was so sweet and made us laugh which was such a great start to our experience. After out tour, we went outside and had a few tastings with Mitch. He was so informative, funny, and very inviting. We really enjoyed his hospitality and will definitely be coming back to see him! One of us signed up for the membership and we bought lots of bottles at the end of our visit! 10/10 recommend. (I would like to note that after reading all of the previous reviews about being cut off, I definitely suggest doing your tasting at the bar and have a the charcuterie board to pair with your tastings so you don't let the wine get to you. ) read more

I am a member at Beckers, it was the first winery I joined in Fredericksburg. I have always love the the wines and the environment. We love the live music on the covered patio area and the members tasting room is a very nice getaway from the crowds. Now that Covid protocols are loosened, the pick up parties are getting back to the way they used to be. Some of the first few pick up parties were not as organized as they were before but this one was just like old times. I definitely recommend Beckers for any Fredericksburg visitors. read more

Becker Vineyards - Wine Tasting Room Near Me - Fredericksburg, Texas

Not gonna lie you guys, I originally planned on going here but then decided to skip it but then I ran into people in other wineries and they all keep recommending this winery and I decided to go try it out. I am so glad I did! This was in my top 3 wineries for that day. At this point in my trip, Becker vineyards were my 5th and last winery for the day so i was kinda on the tipsy side when I got here. Not too far from the main road so it's easy to find and let me tell you.. the vineyards are BEAUTIFUL!!! Driving towards the main building you have to drive past some of the vineyards and its just soo pretty. Once you get past that then you are faced with the main tasting room that feels like a cathedral! It has wooden beams, rock work and has an antique feel to it without it feeling like a creepy basement. I mentioned in my other reviews that I am a sweet wine person and this place did not disappoint. They have a wide variety of dry, semi-dry, merlot, etc. With this many varieties, there is sure one you will fall in love with. The tasting room was this big open room with a bar area in the middle and you just kinda stand there getting your wine samples and stuff so there are no seats. I really liked the decor and another thing i liked about this location was the abundance of locals that were super friendly towards me. I got to talking to a guy who goes there often enough that the workers know him by name and they already know which wine he likes to start off with. That really says a lot about the winery and its workers. Anywho, started talking to this guy and i asked about where his favorite place to eat was and i got some really good recommendations. It was starting to get late and i decided my time at Becker must come to an end but not before i got some quality time out in the grapevines! It was a hot afternoon and did not go out exploring anything past the back porch of the winery but if i had the time and energy I would have. I will highly recommend this place as a stop along the wine road. Plus you can't pass a chance to sample 6 wines for $20 and receive the wine glass they came in. read more

Stopped here when Pedernales Falls State Park was full up and it turned out to be a great way to spend a couple of hours. One of the few wineries open early and on a Monday. We were about to start our tasting when a free tour was announced. Why not? We always learn something new and this time it was that the wine industry also deals with "Angel Share" which we thought was just in bourbon making. After the approximately 30 minute tour, we paid for a tasting ($25 for six one ounce pours). We are not fans of white wine but upon Kaylee's recommendation, we tried the Vigonier (served to three Presidents) and it was very good! After our tastings, we purchased a glass of the Vigonier to eat with our picnic lunch on the beautiful grounds. read more

What's special about this place? History... history amongst other things that set them apart from every other Fredericksburg winery. Firstly, they allow 6 "tickets" for tastings. Gone are the days where you have to pick red vs white on a set menu. Drink what YOU like and let the tasting staff take you on an adventure. Secondly, if you don't match with Dean you are missing out. He was not only personable but he listens! He went out of his way to ensure we all enjoyed our time there. He was well versed and made great recommendations. Plus, it's beautiful. There's indoor space and outdoor space. Whatever tickles your fancy. Give it a shot! read more

During our stay at the Blumen Haus BB the host put us on to Becker Vineyard. This place is really beautiful and relaxing. We arrived when they first opened on Sunday which is noon. It was a good decision to get there early because we saw how popular it can be and it was nice to get our pictures in early. They have covered outdoor seating which overlooks the lavender fields so it also smelled great. Sitting was available inside as well and some other chairs and tables were setup in the grass area. They also had a food truck vendor that offers a few menu items. It's good they are their because time flies by and you can get hungry tasting wine. We opted to do the sample tasting which allowed for 6 wine tastings at $20. This was nice because we were able to sample 12 wines between the 2 of us. It really gave us a chance to figure out what we liked. Their are so many options, we decided we'd have to come back to taste more. The staff was so pleasant and helpful. They were knowledgeable and patient with patrons. We are not wine experts so it was great that they guided us along the way. read more

We've been coming here for years. Becker is our favorite 290 winery. Dr. Becker consistently churns our quality vino at a fair price. The vineyard is beautiful and the tasting room is always a fun time. They weren't terribly busy this visit so we had our sommelier all to ourselves for the duration of our tasting. Tammey was very knowledgeable and friendly (she laughed at my husband's jokes). Weather was perfect for sitting outside and the band was great without being overly loud. Always worth a stop when traveling the Texas Wine Trail. read more

We have been a member at Becker for over a year. Their wine is consistently amazing. We also have a membership at Grape creek, to which we cancelled this weekend. We walked into Becker and was greeted with OUTSTANDING customer service, and they let us do a tasting even though we didn't have a reservation because we were there to do a wine club shipment pickup. We commuted from Houston, so being treated so sweetly is what hits home for us. As mentioned we have had amazing wines every single time from Becker. PLUS being kid friendly gives them 5 stars in my book! read more

I heard this place was notorious for cutting off innocent people but I never expected to be a victim. My girlfriends & I came here for our last stop on our private wine tour. After having 2 of the (smallest) tastings out of the 4 we prepaid for we were cut off by our waiter. After waiting 20 minutes to speak with a manager we were informed the reason for getting cut off was due to our friend closing her eyes multiple times. This was a ridiculous statement since she had no sunglasses on and it was bright outside. Also, if this was an issue with them they should've come over and gave us some sort of heads up or warning. I believe Becker Creek is a scam since they just want to take your money and cut you off for no reason. I'm sure they do this all the time to innocent girls. I'll never be back. read more

We spent hours here! It was about 105 this day and we sat out on the deck, and didn't feel terrible at all. A gorgeous place! The servers were so sweet and offered information and suggestions. We had the charcuterie board for lunch with our tasting, and it was perfect! They had someone playing guitar. It was a great day for our 15th wedding anniversary (best part- no kids!! Lol). We especially were grateful to Becker for the free wine tasting for my husband since he is active duty military (19+ years!). Thank you, Becker! We appreciate your support to our military! read more

Great wine great people and great atmosphere. I was just there passing through o my way to San Antonio and I'm glad I did. Had a wine that started off sweet but had a finish like a merlot. Wish I could tell you the name but if you do a tasting of reds your sure to come across it. I hope I get a chance in the near future to go back as the place has a great Tuscan feel to it. So if your ever in Texas make sure to visit this place you will not be disappointed. read more

I will be honest, i was not a huge fan of the tastes of their wines. Of our tasting, there might have been one that I would have considered a glass of. I did buy a glass of another that was recommended by our tasting hostess, but even that, i would not purchase a bottle. To each, their own, though, and I am sure the flavor pleases some pallets quite nicely. Our tasting hostess was the friendliest we experienced while touring wine country. She was very down to earth and let us take our time. She was also helpful in pointing out areas in town we should not miss, as well as some to avoid. I will say that i am so happy we did not skip the vineyard based on the beauty of the location. We just missed the blooming of the bountiful lavender, but the flowers were blooming and there were plenty of opportunities for pictures and just to feel the sun on your shoulders in a beautiful setting. They also had a musician set up and there were kids running around and dancing, a real family event. They have a large indoor tasting area, and they have a lovely retail store. I purchased some kitchen towels with scenic prints and some little fun knick knacks. I witnessed a very unpleasant group arrive, and while i am not sure what their complaint was (as they were loud but not very clear), but I watched the staff and management handle the situation beautifully without furthering the scene this crew was making. I would return for the environment there and to see the lavender and the grounds, but not the wine. Again - to each their own. read more

Beautiful vineyard to sit and enjoy the wines. Selection was very nice. A wine for everyone, if you'd like sweet, they had sweet, if you like a bold red they had that too. Staff was friendly but seemed to busy to talk much about the wines. I felt I heard "Becker was the first to...", More than I learned about the types of grapes and the tasting profiles I would get from the wine. it seemed with the wine tour you get a lot more personal attention. read more

I don't know of a red wine I haven't liked there, but visiting is way more than that. We feel comfortable there. Everyone seems genuinely glad to be there. Everyone of the staff all know the history and speak so highly of Dr. Becker and his late wife. If it's an act, it's a great one... I don't believe it is. If you can only visit one vineyard during your stay, make it Becker. If you're seeing more, make it the last one. read more

It was a beautiful early November Sunday afternoon and this place was very busy. We decided to skip the tasting since it was unreasonably expensive for what you get. We instead bought a bottle of their wine and got out our picnic and enjoyed it on their beautiful grounds. The workers were very helpful in providing us glasses and plates and napkins for our picnic. The wine was just OK but tasted better given the nice setting. It looked like there were many different buildings and spaces for events. read more

Came here during a trip to wine country, as many sources cite this winery as top notch! It was on the crowded side. I didn't enjoy the wines here as much as I had hoped. They were all on the tart, acidic side, which is not my personal preference. The outside area is beautiful though, especially during sunset. It's a spacious tasting room, but it can easily get very crowded, making for a less-than-relaxing milieu. read more

This is the GOAT winery in Fredericksburg. Becker should be your first stop (as it is about the furthest from the city) and plan on staying for a while. We're not huge red wine fans, so we can't speak to their taste. However, we can vouch strongly for the Dry Riesling. It is incredible. Fruity, smooth front, with maybe a fleeting touch of sweetness. It's a refreshing wine for a summer day in south Texas. The atmosphere at Becker is lovely. The staff are incredibly friendly (and on more than one occasion we got some extra tastings!) Certainly give this winery a try. It's worth the drive. And try the Dry Riesling! UPDATE: The winery managed to get even more gorgeous with the flowers out back in bloom. There's no better place to share a bottle of wine than Becker's back patio. I branched our and gave the Culinaria red blend a shot. Light, crisp, and easy drinking for a red. Really enjoyed it - give it a shot as well! read more
