The first harvest is set! We will pick the chardonnay grapes on Monday morning, July 17 starting at 6:30 am.
Wear comfortable, cool clothing and tennis shoes. You’ll want to bring a hat, sunscreen, water, and bug spray. We’ll provide everything else you need. We will start bright and early at sunrise but most folks come about 7am or later and go until all the grapes are picked, usually about 9 or 10 am.
After harvest in the morning, our grapes will be de-stemmed and crushed and prepared for fermentation at the winery. Feel free to come by our location at 841 N Main St, Salado and see the grapes start their journey to a bottle of wine.
RSVPs/Tickets are not required, but if you register, then we have an easy way to contact you if anything changes. Check out facebook page if there is unexpected weather or updates.
Pets must be leashed. There are cows, horses, and donkeys in adjacent fields and they will bite dogs.

Spring has sprung!
And you know what? It has already been a roller coaster my friends! Eeek!
First of all, the grapevines started growing about 2 weeks earlier than is normal. We hit 90 degrees Fahrenheit during the 3rd week of February, so the grapevines took that as their signal to GROW! Bud break began, but the weather was too hot and the grapevines showed evidence of “cupping” from the heat and the warm wind. The leaves were malformed and the vines looked terrible.
After a couple weeks, they outgrew the first missteps, but then we had a freeze nearby on the morning of March 19th. Many of my friends’ vineyards in the area suffered widespread freeze damage. 🙁
But now here we are, already a month of growth in the chardonnay, and the outlook is improving. Please keep your fingers crossed!
This vineyard was planted in 2005 and has produced over 50 tons of grapes since then.
The planning for the 11th annual Texas Wine & Rogue Art Fest has begun! Mark your calendar, RSVP on our facebook event, and invite your favorite vendors.
