Venue Features
The scene:
When you walk through our heirloom doors, step into the wine country and escape for a few hours. With two outdoor patios, a dedicated wine-tasting room, a glass wine cellar, a bar, and a dining room, guests can enjoy indoor or open-air wine and food pairing experiences. Beautiful, natural light streams through the large glass windowpanes highlighting chic décor and custom artwork. The light, airy space can be configured for formal dinners or casual cocktail / lounge events.
Design:
Our beautiful venue was designed to be reminiscent of wine tasting rooms throughout the ages. To the left of the entry, you find yourself inside our Farmhouse, a chic bar and dining area. The soaring ceiling trusses over the live-edge wood bar and patina copper accents reflect that the essence of winemaking is, and has always been, an agricultural endeavor. Moving west through the venue past our glassed-in wine cellar, is our dedicated Wine Tasting Room. In the Tasting Room, guests are enveloped in walls of natural Texas limestone, like the ‘clos’ or walled vineyards in France. As French clos’ ensure the creation of a meso-climate so that each distinct vineyard can grow harmoniously, our space lends the same unique and congenial nature to parties and celebrations. Further west, towards the wine-country sunsets, our guests enter the Conservatory, a space that brings wine appreciation into modern times by marrying the historical elements of winemaking with the stylish art-deco modernity reflective of the tube station entrances in Paris. Our west patio creates lovely outdoor space that leads into our Cellar Room, perfect for private dining.
