"Part tasting room and part winemaking mecca, Vegas Valley Winery is the hangout adjacent to Grape Expectations, an instructional winemaking facility that opened its doors in 2005. As “the first winery in the Las Vegas Valley” made famous for its longtime Henderson location, Vegas Valley Winery offers wine blending classes and other club perks for serious winos. Visit the tasting room and sip a flight or glass of Vegas Valley wines, and enjoy wine and pizza specials on Wednesdays, hard cider discounts on Thursdays, and Sunday multi-bottle purchase deals. Nibble on small charcuterie plates or a classic cheese pizza with your Nevada Red Blend or Desert Rouge rosé." - Jennifer Smith

A Cocktail Town Tries Its Hand at Wine - AFAR

"Las Vegas’s first commercial winery and tasting room presents a modest, small-batch approach, producing five wines—a dry white, a sweet riesling, a sweet rosé, a jammy zinfandel, and a smooth syrah—served only in a cozy tasting room in a nondescript industrial park in Henderson (about 20 minutes from the Strip) with wider availability promised later. Glass pours cost $7.50–$9.50 and a flight of all five is $8. Operated by GM/winemaker Mike Schoenbaechler and co-owner Patty Peters after years of development, the space aims to recreate a familiar tasting-room experience with a bit of a Vegas spin: relaxed and unpretentious, serving little cheese pizzas while a TV in the corner shows Las Vegas Golden Knights games. Current releases are blended from California sources (Suisun Valley and Paso Robles), and barrel lots being aged from Nevada’s Amargosa Valley are due next year; the owners emphasize staying small and hand-crafted rather than trying to emulate Napa or Sonoma. The tasting room sits within a local “Henderson Booze District,” within walking distance of several nascent craft breweries and a distillery." - Matt Villano

The valley’s first winery offers tastings, education sessions, and occasional tours—a local counterpoint to Strip glitz. Active calendar and community classes verify ongoing operation and ties to the region’s Booze District.
