(Menu is attached) I loved the the chef's personality...he worked his butt off in their make shift kitchen, so kudo's for that! It was a fun time...we sat with a local couple from Winnie and had a blast experiencing the food...wine and conversation...they were already familiar with the wine because they live down the street as did most of the people that were there. The tasting was basically a "sip" of individual wines they had paired with alligator, quail, venison and duck. They literally poured a sip of each wine, I'm like, hey man we paid $70 and drove over an hour to get here! Pfft! A sip? This is a pairing not a taste! Because of the wine tasting being just sips...we bought TWO bottles of their Black Spanish rose'...yum! Clay and Stacy Rollins own the vineyard and we had the pleasure of meeting them during our dinner; Mr Rollins said it's been tough keeping abreast of things during this pandemic. He started growing the grapes in 2011 (which is a task because that area floods during heavy rains) he finally opened since 2014. He said, they had to close during the start of the pandemic last year ( 2020) for 4 months and that he's glad they can open for "event" type activities. Mr Rollins told me their grapes are bought from all over Texas...but, mostly from the panhandle area (Lubbock) and processed in a plant in Nacogdoches, TX . We had alligator from Alabama, (wait what?) Quail from Texas Quail farms in Lockhart, TX (cool) duck from Maple Leaf farms in California and deer meat (venison) from New Zealand of all places!! (I was kinda surprised the proteins weren't locally sourced.) All in all, it was a fun time. The wine sips served were really good, mostly reds with 1 white. If you're within the Chambers County area stop by but, buy your own bottle cuz they stingy!!! LOL! FYI: HEB's in Mont Belvieu, Baytown, and Winnie TX sell their wine. I'm glad I got to experience this winery having come from 85 miles away...great job on y'all's wine accomplishments and awards. SUPPORT LOCAL BUY LOCAL

Pricing is excellent and the food was very good. I tried one of their artisan pizzas which I would have loved too see more burn on the crust but had a good flavor overall. The cheese and meat plate was ample and almost a meal in itself! The atmosphere in the bistro was warm and friendly. We met several new friends there and had a wonderful time!

Part of it is the fact that it is in the middle of nowhere. Even going up the driveway there is some apprehension at what awaits. Once you get there, though, it's a beautiful spot. A tasting room set in the middle of a vineyard on a hill surrounded by trees. A great surprise. There is a fairly large selection of wines to fit all kinds of tastes. Even people who have a hard time finding something they like will probably find something to their taste. The flights are well worth it. Staff was friendly and very knowledgeable. As for food, they make their own homemade pizza which was excellent. Except for the fact that it's on the smaller side, I would actually put this up against any place in Fredericksburg.
