Wineries in New Braunfels

“Water 2 Wine is my unofficial office, therapy lounge, social club, and sometimes a wine-fueled escape from the chaos of adulting. I’ve been going here for years, and if it ever closes, I will consider laying on the doorstep and crying.

The owners, Tre & Angel are the sweetest (sometimes sassy *cough cough* Tre *cough cough*) owners ever. They're extremely knowledgeable about wine and make this picky girls heart and tastebuds happy.

They have an incredible staff with Johnny (who's won best bartender in NB for like a lot of years, don't ask me how many, I can't keep up, might be convinced he's bribing the town with sass and charcuterie boards), Ameilee (the queen of arts and crafts and the designer behind their door of events each month), and Lexi (who makes it a point to remember anyone and everyone by name and their wine of choice; seriously the second time I ever met her she greeted me like besties and I live for that energy).

The atmosphere is laid back and welcoming which makes it a great spot for a girls outing, date night, or remote work that’s mostly just answering one email and then reward-sipping for your efforts. It will forever be this wino's fav spot to sip, yap, and pop a squat.

11/10 would recommend. No notes. Just go.“

“My fiancé and I recently visited the Winery on the Gruene and absolutely loved it! It is a really nice spot in the heart of Gruene and its great location makes it easy for relaxing with a glass of wine after walking around town. The staff is friendly and helpful with tastings, and the flights are a good deal with both classic and fun fruit flavors. I ended up getting a bottle of their Watermelon White Merlot after trying it, and it was surprisingly refreshing and easy to drink. The patio is the best place to sit in my opinion but maybe not in the Texas heat, just depends on the time you go. The only downside is it can get busy, so service slows a bit, and the inside feels a little tight on hot days. Nonetheless it was a great spot and we’ll be back.“

“*** I didnt actually do the tasting*** but still loved the visit. The decor and artwork are a whole vibe! The experience from everyone was positive and we all had fun. This would be a perfect spot for a tasting with friends. The outdoor spot has covered spots and the indoor seating has a few different areas to taste or just split a bottle.“
