Lavaca Bluffs is amazing! We went on a Thursday afternoon and discovered a truly "hidden gem"…read more Lavaca Bluffs is a regional winery that's about to go national. My husband and I came to Port Lavaca TX for our annual vacation and decided to come here. Doug is the owner/winemaker and was an amazing wine guide and historian. I loved how he interwove the history lesson with wine. Very knowledgeable and friendly! Not to mention the appetizer is amazing

Rosie, D Stafford in the gift shop was extremely helpful, pleasant, and customer oriented. We had an early dinner and it was excellent. I had the chicken fried chicken, which was very lightly coated and cooked to perfection, beautifully seasoned and served with a side of grilled broccolini that was off the page. The bride had a brisket sandwich that was loaded with meat, on a beautiful soft bun. The salads were great, and the drinks were fantastic. We can't wait to go back and visit again. We encourage you if you're going down 87 from Victoria toward Bloomington or beyond, stop and grab something to eat. It's well worth it.

The inside is clean and inviting. They are very welcome to dogs and support animal welfare organizations it looks like! We of course had to have two flights - one beer, one wine. I can't completely recall my order - the wines I remember trying were blackberry, raspberry, watermelon, and the "muscles and tattoos(?)." Every single one was amazing. I personally adored the blackberry, and my partner - who usually is not a huge wine fan at all - adored the watermelon wine. My palate isn't really built for beer, so three of the four samples we had were just good to me. There were subtle differences in the hoppiness which I really liked for dimension. There is one that stood out which was a pickle beer... if you tried the Best Maid beer and you were traumatized by how gross it is, please try this beer to recover. It is absolutely incredible. We had to buy a 4-pack to go. Speaking of which! There's also the option to take a "batch" of something you enjoyed home. It is a touch expensive, but for good reason, and if I lived closer I probably would have done that with the blackberry wine! Also, the bartender was incredible. I didn't get his name but whoever was there on the 10th around 7pm, you're super cool! Service, from getting his attention, to our order being prepared, to getting the tab completed/souvenirs bought, took no time at all. I'll have to come back down from Dallas for sure.

One of those rare small wineries where you instantly feel the owner's fingerprints on every bottle…read more We absolutely loved this place, it's intimate, personal, and the wines taste like someone actually cared while they were being made. No corporate gloss, no mass-production... just honest craft. Every pour had its own personality, balanced, thoughtfully made, and confidently expressive of the wine. You can tell the winemaker is hands-on; they know their grapes and can tell the story behind each wine without turning it into a lecture. The tasting experience was warm, unrushed, and genuine, more like being welcomed into someone's passion than being "processed" through another tasting bar. We left with bottles we're genuinely excited to open, and that's the best sign. Small owner-run wineries like this are the soul of wine. If you want authenticity, connection, and world-class flavor without the hype this is your place. Highly recommended. Will absolutely return. Side note ask Pam about the name and logo
