Born out of our love of fine wines, Michael and Melissa Poole have created the premier fine wine location in Central Texas. After traveling the world and sampling different wines and meads, head wine maker and owner Michael Poole decided to make his way back home to Texas and bring the world of great tasting wine with him.

Winery tour is $10 which includes:

  • Wine glass with logo
  • 5 tastings
  • Tour of the winery
  • A visit to the barrel room with some sampling directly from the barrel

The tour should take about an hour

If you have a two-way FRS radio, bring it. They enhance the enjoyment of the drive!
