Austin area Wineries? Looking to gift local wine.
This is kind of a stretch, but any recommendations for hill country wineries? My in-laws really enjoy wine and have been interested in Texas’s budding wineries (they’re not from TX). They have a family celebration coming up and we can’t be there because of the pandemic, so we…

What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the stunning lake views and the quality of the wine, particularly the Syrah varietals. The friendly staff and delicious food options like pizza and hummus plates also receive high marks. Some minor drawbacks include a steep driveway and the fact that water is charged.
"We had a lovely time here! The scenery is amazing, wine is good, and staff were lovely. We had a tasting and picked a favorite—I highly recommend the 2021 Estate Syrah but my husband’s favorite was the MAD.
We also enjoyed seeing the longhorns! Expensive outing, which is to be expected when you visit a winery, but I’d love to return!"

"My girlfriend and I spent a relaxing Saturday afternoon at Torr Na Lochs and had an amazing time. We each enjoyed a wine tasting and shared a delicious cheese board. The wines were excellent, and our server was both friendly and knowledgeable, sharing interesting stories behind each wine we tried. The property itself is tucked away in a beautiful, scenic location, with the main seating area perched above a rocky hillside offering stunning views of both Inks Lake and Lake Buchanan. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and one I’d highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable outing."

"What a beautiful winery! Our last night in Marble Falls we headed there and arrived about 45 minutes before closing! Debbie seated us and explained the gorgeous views of both Inks Lake and Lake Buchanan and set us up for our tastings!! No rush or hurry up at all!!
The winery story was kind of a Cinderella story with a large dose of family mixed in!! We left shortly after official closing time with an assortment of excellent wines!! Highly recommend you add to your list to explore...so very different from the wineries around Fredericksburg but they each held their own beauty!!"
