Pedernales Cellars - Stonewall

On the same day we visited Texas Hills Vineyard and Lost Creek Vineyard Tasting Room, we also visited Pedernales Cellars. From Johnson City, take 290 toward Fredricksburg, turn left on Upper Albert Road for about a mile.

Pedernales is a little off the beaten path and was a great place to hang out. The wine tasting facility is roomy, but the patio is incredible. We enjoyed a bottle of their 2007 Stonewall Voignier as we sat back and took in their spacious views. When visiting this winery, pack a picnic & be prepared to stay a while.

Tastings are $6 for 5 wines, free if you purchase a bottle. The wines we tasted were enjoyable. We both agreed the 2007 Stonewall Voignier was our favorite - a versatile white perfect for sipping on a warm afternoon.

We would definitely return with friends to enjoy the patio and scenery.

I will tell you that the owners, whom I know in part, are exceptional people - super good folks to the core. When I read your blog I realize now that that is an important part of the experience.

Let's make a road trip back out there and enjoy the scenery!
