This blog is about...

Welcome!

Our blog is to chronicle our travels to (mostly) Texas wineries and tasting rooms. We enjoy the winery "experience" and hope that we can inspire you to experience these wineries with us.

The popularity of Texas wineries and wine are a relatively new phenomenon. Many wineries have come a long way in a short time; many produce great wines.

We like to make day or weekend trips. Each winery is as unique as the wines they produce and/or serve. As we visit a winery or tasting room, we will give our impressions. What are the facilities like? Is it off the beaten path? Is it small or large? Quirky or trying to be "too perfect"? Do they serve any food? What does it cost to taste their wines? We may also tell about side trips of interest not related to the winery.

We will also discuss our impressions of the wines. We are not sommeliers and realize that drinking wine is a personal experience. We welcome any comments you have but ask you keep in mind that the wine experience is different for different people. "You like what you like!"

Please join us for our journey!
