"It was definitely a surprise. I get to the venue and it was beautifully decorsted from floor to ceiling. Some ve donde had their own decor and interesting wine for us to try. And for a bonus surpris? They had cheese and bacon which were definitely a must buy. The detailed description of the variety of flavors were very helpul because it traches you which one you prefer, red or white wine. Would experience it again with friends!" — Ezer C
"It was such a nice experience. All the different wines and also learning how they are made. I enjoyed the experience of having somewhere nice to go with a group of my family and friends. Can't wait to do it agian!!" — Precious
"Brought my fiancé and mom to one of these events and we had a great time. Beyond trying some great wines, we also got this olive oil that was INCREDIBLE! The only thing to keep in mind is that it can get very busy and get congested so try to go when there is more availability if you do not like crowds." — Jessica S

"Wine Fest was a super fun event! Loved getting to try so many new-to-me wines. Admittedly I spent way more money than I expected but only because everything was so yummy. I will definitely be back. My ONLY complaint is I wish there were more food options to snack on while there but it honestly wasn't that big of a deal." — Sarah W
"Had a great time. The variety of the vendors was a plus. I really like the fact that others vendors outside of wine were present as well. Food trucks and the scenic area outside in the courtyard make the event outstanding. Can't wait to attend another event!" — Althea M
"The event was so nice! I had an awesome time with my friend and we had the opportunity to taste so many wines.

"I have attended this event twice. 11/2024 and 03/2025 and it has not disappointed either time. The vast selection of wine and snacks from all across Texas are great and the atmosphere is welcoming. The wine glasses that you get with your visit or the cutest." — Janika H
"The venue was lovely and all the vendors had uniquely grown or made products. I didn't quite make it through all the samples, and still had a great time trying! My daughter and I had a lovely time and we would definitely join them again." — Naomi G

I will look forward to participating in another event in my area." — David V

The wineries present were friendly and informative with a great variety of white and reds, sweet and dry options. There were also a couple food trucks and vendors inside to help with snacking and if you have a little too much wine. This was my second event and I can’t wait to attend more. I highly recommend for a girl weekend, birthday weekend or just any opportunity to have fun with friends or family who enjoy wine." — Whitney M
"I attended the Wino in Tyler,Tx on 4/26/25 & everyone was so friendly! Loved the atmosphere & the complimentary wine glass! Definitely found some favorite new wines & I look forward to attending more events in the future!

"What a great event! I will admit i was leery because it sounded to good to be true! (Wine glass, 40 samples, no huge crowds ) It did not disappoint! I loved meeting all the small business owners and sampling all the varieties of wine and wine infused goodies There was even chocolate and coffee infused treats to be sampled . Of course we got some things to take home as well. I DEF will be doing this again.. Loved the small crowds and the ease of check in!! Add it to the LOVE LIST" — Tammie G

"Second event was just as fun as the first! Though I did enjoy the atmosphere of the first venue, this one was more classy. I like the different pace you get with the change of venues. Would for sure recommend this event for newbies and connoisseurs alike! Can't wait to do a bus tour!" — Chan W

"This was my second experience with Winos. I love each of the vendors, I get to restock on my wines from the best Texas owned winery’s. The experience is wonderful, everyone is friendly, the wines are amazing. I always bring different people when coming to this event! The very first time I came, one of the vendors had a selection of different charcuterie pieces, breads and oils! It was perfect" — Celeste Renee

"My first time experiencing a Wine Fest, as well as my mom and boyfriend, it was great there were no big crowds or long lines. Everyone was so polite in including my elderly mom that was in an electrical scooter in this event since it was indoors and had a step that the vendors were up on, so she was a bit far away from the actual table but they were generous in speaking louder so she could hear them explaining the different types of wine. I will definitely be back to the wine fest specifically in Tyler Tx!" — Mackenzie S

"Went to the the Wine Festival sponsored by Texas Winos in Fort Worth on Saturday at Southside Preservation Hall. What a great venue!!! My friend and I had a fun time trying out the terrific selection of Texas wines, and the music was a nice backdrop. It was good to see some old favorites, as well as some new vendors, such as Decadent Saint, with a variety of extra hard mixers that were simply delicious! Multiple drink recipes possible with each flavor, they're all natural, and don't even require refrigeration. Some excellent food options, and the gourmet chocolate and olive oil vendors provided samples of their wonderful products😋. Recommend anyone to attend one of these events-you will not be disappointed!" — Pamela R

"The WinoFest held in Ft. Worth was GRRREAATT! The vendors, from
Olive oil seasoning(EVOO) to handbags and clothing was fantastic! The free wine glass and the lady putting free wordings on them was an extra bonus. My high school friends and I enjoyed everything and can’t wait to attend another one.
Good job! 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾" — Alethea M

I'm interested in trying the other events they offer as well." — J D

"It was my first time attending the WinoFest, and though it was a bit smaller than expected, I still enjoyed it very much. Each winery represented showed up with some great wine choices. I also got a lot of great ideas for stocking stuffers from the vendors who had food, candy and popcorn. I mean, who wouldn't want to get a box of boozy chocolates or gourmet popcorn in their stocking?! The live music was a nice touch as well. Overall, it was a fun experience, and I will definitely attend again next year." — Ace W

"It was my first time going to a wine tasting in Texas, I've been to plenty out of the state, and honestly this was the best one, there were plenty of booths to try new wines. Crowds don't bother me, specially if your just enjoy the atmosphere and wine. The vendors were nice and willing to answer any question we had on the wine. Definitely would be coming back and will be more friends, I was a little afraid to bring people since it was my first time, but they didn't disappoint at all. I love that there were more than just wine booths, they had some that had snacks to try, and they were good snacks too. There were plenty of different wines to try as well. Hopefully the weather next will be good so we can enjoy everything outside." — Niyla W
"Texas WinoFest is PHENOMENAL! This experience will leave your taste buds dancing from the variety of amazing wines, venders, complimentary souvenirs, food trucks, infused treats and more! Don’t be fooled. You DON’T wanna miss out. This will be my 2nd one & more to come!" — Albany B
"My husband and I went to the Wine Fest in Tyler Texas. It was our 3 year wedding anniversary and we had a BLAST. We purchased some wine, some boozy chocolate, some lotion and some some wax for oil burners. We had a lovely time and would DEFINITELY go again. We’ve told all our family friends about this event and now they want to go too." — Stacey H
"Great experience with the WineFest event! The team managing the event were super helpful and responsive and very committed to offering a quality, fun experience. Grateful for all the vendors sharing their wines and their passion! I'm more of a dry wine drinker - so eager to check out another Texas Winos event in the future" — Lisa H
"We attended the Texas Wino event on April 26, 2025 as always we had an awesome time. We enjoyed seeing some vendors we have supported in the past and were excited to me and sample those vendors that was our first time sipping with them. In addition the food vendor choice was tasty! Can’t wait until the next event. Thanks" — Anthony F
"We have attended 2. Wouldve been 3 but I misread the dates on the one in our hometown. Great way to get out and find different areas we wouldve never explored. San Antonio's parking was a beast, but my small car took care of that. Ample parking in Temple/Belton and spaced out and had AC. We noticed less wineries at this past weekend's, but we still had a great time at a nice venue/location! A list of confirmed vendors might be a comfort for future attendees. My mother thoroughly enjoyed her purchases. We were able to sample lotions, and chocolates, and jerky and even bacon, as well. We saw some faves from San Antonio and were able to replenish out fave wines, and grab some we didnt before. It was great. I wish the local winery Dancing Bee was in attendance, with their meads, or even Valley Mills bc Ive never tried them. The live music of Mr. Rozell was great all around, but the relaxing wine needed the uptempos to not get too relaxed. The Jones' food truck was tasty per usual. They are a Killeen staple. It would be nice to have other food types as well. The tasting is an excellent price and very smart to charge in that way. Like Germany and its fests, if you charge less for entry they are likely to pay more. We definitely purchase more, but its a treat to try the wines before purchase. Thank you for a great time and look fwd to more." — Mrs Ski
