Texas wines from grapes grown in the state, friendly staff

























"This Texas winery is hosting a four-course, wine-paired dinner at a Round Rock Irish restaurant and microbrewery next week; the menu includes quail and poblano chile hush puppies, lamb sliders, and flourless chocolate tortes, with tickets priced at $65 and seatings beginning at 6:30 p.m. for a 7 p.m. dinner." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Central Texas winery C.L. Butaud moved from the Hill Country into Austin proper this month, opening a new tasting room in the East Congress neighborhood at 415 East St. Elmo Road, Suite 4F as of Saturday, May 4; its last day at the previous tasting room was sometime in March. The tasting room was created as a shared venture with Wine for the People in December 2020 (Wine for the People moved out in November 2022), and the new tasting room hours are 1 to 8 p.m. Thursday through Saturday and 1 to 6 p.m. Sunday." - Nadia Chaudhury
"I note that Wine for the People shared a tasting room space with C.L. Butaud Wines beginning in November 2020, but Wine for the People left that shared arrangement in November 2022." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Previously sharing Wine for the People’s current tasting room, C.L. Butaud Wines — run by Randy Hester — opened in 2020 at 12345 Pauls Valley Road; while Wine for the People’s last day off Fitzhugh Road will be Sunday, November 13, C.L. will remain at the Fitzhugh address." - Nadia Chaudhury
"I’m excited about the new tasting room from one of my favorites, C.L. Butaud." - Erin Russell
