At William Chris Vineyards, we focus on low impact, 100% Texas-grown wine. Explore our diverse portfolio and let your taste buds take you on a tour of the vast land of Texas without ever leaving our tasting room.
Join us at the vineyard for one of our special events, or find our team when we're on the road.
We offer a variety of experiences in addition to our current winemaker's choice menu.
Sustainable practices and old-world technique make all the difference to us. In each finished wine we hope you'll taste the heart and soul behind it.
The William Chris wines are qualitatively a whole lot better than what you might expect from Texas if you have preconceived notions (yes, summers here are hotter than a stolen tamale). Their wines are balanced and elegant, with vibrant fruit profiles and great structures.
Winemakers nationwide have taken up the challenge of identifying underappreciated locales and crafting innovative, quality wines. In...Texas renegade winemakers [like Chris Brundrett] produce world-class bottlings and prove that there’s still much to discover about American wine."
William Chris Vineyards owners Bill Blackmon and Chris Brundrett make their wine from Texas-grown grapes only (see Should Texas Wine Be Made With 100 Percent Texas-Grown Fruit?). The duo teamed up to make wine in 2008 and opened the doors of their rustic tasting room in 2010. Order a glass of the 2017 Sangiovese or the 2018 Mary Ruth—the latter was named after Bill’s mother—and then walk among the oak trees and enjoy the views of rolling hills."
