“We spent a wonderful afternoon at William Chris Vineyard.
Angela R. was such a joy! Extremely personable and knowledgeable. She made our visit very special and fun! We also enjoyed talking to Francisco about the company philosophy and the upcoming launch parties around the state. We will definitely be joining the wine club and planning a return visit! Highly recommend for anyone visiting the Texas Hill Country!”

“We love coming to Hye Meadow Winery. They have done an excellent job creating a laid back family friendly atmosphere with their outdoor space and more intimate experience at their inside bar. Stop in here to soak up the beauty of the Texas Hill Country and enjoy some delicious wines. You won't be disappointed!”

“A Hidden Gem Beneath the Hill Country Sky If you’re looking for an unforgettable wine experience in Texas, stop scrolling and add Calais Winery in Hye, TX to your must-visit list. Tucked into the side of a limestone hill, this boutique winery offers an intimate cave tasting experience that feels like stepping into a secret—the kind of place you only whisper about to friends you trust to appreciate something rare. French winemaker Benjamin Calais has crafted something extraordinary here. His wines, made exclusively from 100% Texas-grown grapes, are Bordeaux-inspired yet distinctly Texan—elegant, complex, and soulful. Every sip tells a story of sunlit vineyards, native yeasts, Hill Country water, and a winemaker’s devotion to excellence. Tastings are by appointment only, which means you’re never part of a crowd—just part of the moment. We sat at a table fashioned from reclaimed barn wood, surrounded by barrels and stone, and shared an hour of good wine and even better conversation. It was as if time slowed down just for us. Whether you’re a seasoned oenophile or a weekend wanderer, Calais Winery is a revelation. The cave. The craftsmanship. The calm. This is what wine tasting should be—intimate, authentic, and deeply rooted in the land. Bravo, Benjamin. You’ve bottled something magical.”

“I got to try Hye Cider at H‑E‑B and I was surprised! I’m not much of a cider person but wow this actually tasted really good! I really like the flavor of the Hye Heaven, it’s more sweet but not overly sweet which is just the taste I go for nowadays. I definitely recommend!”

You never really know what you’re getting with a random food truck but OMG 😳 I ordered the cast iron hash and my husband ordered the scramble! They both were beyond delicious!!!
