Stonewall – A visit to Fredericksburg isn’t complete without experiencing its thriving Texas wine scene, and K Estate Vineyards in nearby Stonewall is one of the stops worth adding to the list.
The recently renovated property offers guided tours, tastings and food pairings in a beautiful Hill Country setting. Guests can sample a variety of wines, including Texas Hill Country selections and award-winning wines made with grapes sourced from across the state.
For owner Julie, the winery is about more than what’s poured in the glass. With her family’s deep roots in Fredericksburg and her background in farming, she says winemaking is ultimately agriculture, culture and plenty of hard work.
K Estate is also part of the Fredericksburg Food & Wine Fest, a weekend celebration featuring more than 40 wineries, breweries and distilleries, plus more than 30 restaurants, live music, demonstrations and more. The festival has earned national recognition, including a spot on Forbes’ list of the top 10 food and wine festivals in the country.
For visitors looking to experience Texas wine country, K Estate offers a chance to slow down, enjoy the scenery and taste what makes the Hill Country such a special destination.
