A Little About Texas Wine



Believe it or not, Texas has a thriving wine scene. There are eight AVA wine-growing regions in Texas.
The first vineyard in the United States was actually in Texas. It’s true! It was established in 1662 near the border of Mexico and New Mexico. Now, Texas is home to more than 400 wineries.
While Fredericksburg, Texas, and the Texas Hill Country are home to many vineyards, it is actually the Texas Panhandle and the Texas High Plains region that grows the majority of the grapes in Texas.
The Hill Country does its part though. Heck, there are over 9 million acres in the Texas Hill Country alone, making Texas the second-largest certified Vinicultural Area in America.
So, grab a glass and head out on a Texas wine tasting adventure during your time in Fredericksburg, TX.

When to Visit the Wineries in Fredericksburg, Texas
While anytime is a good time to visit the wineries in Fredericksburg, there are definitely some pros to certain times of the year.
Summer (June-September)

The summer months, especially June and July, are pretty busy in Fredericksburg, Texas. There are several festivals taking place in Fredericksburg at this time, and there is an all-around fun vibe in the air.
Just note, that this time of year in Fredericksburg is hot. So, if you aren’t used to that, or don’t like the heat, you might want to skip this time of year. If you do choose to brave the heat, you will probably want to do your tastings in the air conditioned tasting rooms.
The harvest season occurs in Fredericksburg in August and September. So, if you would like to participate in the harvest festivities, this is a great time to visit the Fredericksburg, Texas wineries. Take note though, these are traditionally the hottest months in Texas, and I mean HOT!
Fall (October-December)

In October, the weather in Fredericksburg is milder and there are always festivals happening in Fredericksburg, Texas, including their famous Oktoberfest and the Fredericksburg, TX Food & Wine Fest. This is a great time to visit the Texas Hill Country, but it can get crowded, especially in the tasting rooms.
Fredericksburg, TX is also great during the holiday season. From Thanksgiving to the New Year, Fredericksburg comes alive with Christmas lights, holiday decor galore, and special events.
Again, this time of year in Fredericksburg can get crowded, especially since there are two wine trail events taking place. One is in October, the Texas Wine Month wine trail and one is in December, the Holiday Wine Trail.
Winter (January-February)
If you are looking to escape the crowds, then you should visit Fredericksburg in January and February. Visiting Fredericksburg, Texas during these months also means you can usually get better deals on lodging and shopping!
Of course, the days around Valentine’s Day are the exception as everyone brings their sweetie out to Fredericksburg to do a wine tasting. There is also a wine trail taking place during February which will add to the congestion.
In addition, there are very few festivals and events taking place in Fredericksburg this time of year, so if you want to do more than visit the wineries in Fredericksburg, then you might consider another time of year.
Spring (March-May)

My favorite time of year to visit Fredericksburg, TX is in the spring (March-May). Not only can you participate in the Texas wine tasting, but you can also see the beautiful Texas wildflowers blooming. The countryside of the Texas Hill Country comes alive with bluebonnets this time of year, and I LOVE IT!
Thanks to all of the wildflowers blooming, there is a Wildflower wine trail that takes place this time of year!
Not only that, but the temperatures are mild during the spring in the Texas Hill Country. This makes the outdoor patio of the wineries in Fredericksburg, TX so much more enjoyable!
