Meierstone Vineyards

Beautiful wine. Friendly staff. Cute property. Sexy and intelligent winemaker. Always treats my professional trained fur baby like a princess even though she is 100 lbs. 🐕

I first visited in March and was met by the owner/winemaker Krystal. As my friend and I enjoyed the wines, Krystal gave us the background on each as well as the fascinating history of the vineyard. It didn’t take us long to decide to become club members. This was my first visit back since that first day and it was as great an experience as the first. If you have room for only one club membership, this is it.

Love being a member here! The wine is phenomenal and the story is deeply rooted in History which I love. I also love that they are kid friendly. Even had cute coloring pages ready for the little ones to enjoy when we arrived.

Great smaller winery with history and great wines. Ambience, service and wines were all very good. While the owner was not there during our visit the host and hostess were clearly proud of the wines and the history of the vineyard. We will definitely visit again next time we are in town.

Always a comfortable, relaxing spot. Very wine savvy staff that is easy to engage in interesting conversation. And Crystal always makes you feel like she has known you for years! I think wines are some of the best in TX. If you are coming to the Hill Country this is a MUST stop!!!

Beautiful view! Great staff! Amazing wines!

We always love stopping in at Meierstone for a glass of wine… sometimes a bottle! Krystal and her staff are always so welcoming! Very boutique winery with a great story ! We enjoyed the crawfish boil that they had this past Saturday ! An absolute must when going to Fredericksburg!

We absolutely LOVE Meierstone Winery! The wines are top of the line. And Crystal and her staff are simply awesome. So friendly and make you feel like family. Definitely our favorite 290 destination!!!!!!

OK this is a hidden gem! As mentioned, the family has deep roots in this region. The tasting room is not something fancy but all of the wines are well thought out and perfectly balanced. Both whites and reds here. We added a very nice Charcuterie board to our tasting which was plentiful and good. The absolute highlight is George our tasting guide for this experience. He was full of great history and wine knowledge which really enhanced the whole experience. This is NOT the winery to pass up if you like great wine. Nothing fancy, just great wine.

We had a wonderful time at Meierstone this weekend! The property is beautiful and we enjoyed every pour of our tasting. That is not common for us, so it is a great compliment. You can tell the winemaker really knows what she is doing and has integrity in what she puts out! We bought 3 whites and 3 reds, the trebianno and the Airship red blend. Both great! George, our server was fun and informational! We will definitely be back on our annual trip to wine country!

With deep family roots and history in the Hill Country region, this 7th generation Texas family has contributed much to the local area. The current estate is a 555-acre working farm for the past five generations with everything from corn, wheat, cattle, turkeys and now a winery to boot. Their next adventure in Texas farming is growing wine grapes and making wine. The name of the winery pays homage to prior generations by combining two female surnames names, Meier and Stone, as a nod to their rich heritage. Family member, Krystal Patel, is the winemaker and can be found overseeing everyone's tasting experiences in the tasting room with her team. Driving onto the farm off HWY 290, you cannot help but notice the large steel wrecking ball that has sits beside the highway. Opened since the Fall of 2022, the current tasting room is a large open air metal barn style building with nearby old oak trees and views of the fields of corn on the property. There is also an additional outside seating area with tables along with a cozy swing to take your visit to the next level of comfort and relaxation. The staff are extremely friendly, helpful and do a great job checking in with you during your tasting and visit to ensure that your needs are met. There are plans to build a permanent tasting room on the east side of the estate overlooking the Hill Country scenery with an additional access road from the highway. Grapes are currently sourced from the Texas High Plains and the wine is made in the Hill Country. Their first harvest was in 2018 and they have not looked back since. The focus is on small batch production, and you will see it in the quality of the wines you sample. For tastings, there are currently four wines to try plus one "extra". The first white wine on the menu is the 2021 Trebbiano. Sourced from Paka Vineyards, it has a floral nose and a lovely light citrus and apricot flavor with good acids. The second white is the 2021 Roussanne. This wine is aged in French oak and will fill your palate with lemon grass and pears and has good body to it. Following the whites, is a lovely 2021 dry Rosé. Made from Sangiovese grapes, this wine sat on the skins for 24 hours and is rich in strawberry and cherry with a touch of spice. Moving on to the dry red wines, you will notice that the Malbec has a black label, indicating it is a reserve wine, which was aged longer. The 2018 Malbec Reserve was one of their first wines made. Sourced from Newsom Vineyards, this red wine has been aged for 46 months in neutral oak. It is fruit forward with notes of blackberry, has good acids and a nice smooth finish. The "extra" surprise red blend called Cabernello was a lovely treat to sample. This 2021 vintage is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Tempranillo. This limited production release (just 51 cases) is fruit forward with notes of herbs, rich red berries, and a touch of leather. The logo etched glasses are a nice touch as you enjoy your wine, and they also have a VoChill to help keep your wine cool for those warm tasting days. All the wines are already award winners from the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo 2023 Rodeo, Lone Star International Wine Competition, and the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo Wine Competition. There are seven new wines planned for future release in the coming months. One is a Sangiovese, a Tannat, a Cabernet Sauvignon, a red blend, and a special big high alcohol red blend that will be a flagship wine, plus a Souzao and a sparkling wine. This family-owned winery will make you feel more than welcome. Their family legacy and history in the area appears to be full of interesting people who had the ability to dig in and find a way to get the most out of what they had as they wrote their chapters in the history books on this farm. The new winemaking journey is another story that is just beginning, and we look forward to future chapters of this new story. Enjoy your visit here!

You MUST stop in for the Roussanne!! It has this amazing smoky scent/flavor. Lesli is so knowledgeable and she made us feel like we were the only people in the room! And yes there is a fun story behind the red ball make this your first stop on your way into Fredericksburg. The tasting is just slightly less expensive than a lot of the Fredericksburg wineries at $20 and I didn't try a wine I didn't like.

Lovely experience, great wine, George was accommodating and heloful. A great story!

This is one of the best places to go in the Hill Country. It is family owned, personal, and the wine is incredible. The service is excellent, and unlike many of the vineyards nearby, the focus is your experience-- not a commercial push to get you to join a club or commit to a membership. You are inclined to do so, but because you want to support this family and business, not because you endured an hour long sales pitch. Amazing place and absolutely worth the visit.

Friendly staff. They're just starting out so only have 4 wines available for tasting with more coming in the upcoming months. They had 2 whites, 1 rose, and 1 red. All Texas grapes. All of the wines were pretty good.

Cozy setting. Krystal was wonderful. Great family stories and the vino was excellent. We will definitely be returning.

We have now been to Meierstone twice. The wine is so good and the people are super nice and welcoming. Great history associated with the property which the owner is proud to share. A hidden gem for sure. Look for the big red ball at the entrance and yes, there is a story behind that as well. Cheers!
