Outstanding winery and brewery. Tucked away and quiet. Extremely clean and friendly staff. It’s clear why it’s award winning. Will absolutely be returning!

We've been back a few times and it just keeps getting better! They've added a kitchen, and a menu that includes a humongous cobb salad. And they've added a brewery called Yegua Creek, which offers glasses a beer, flights and growlers. They have many styles of beer, all brewed with excellence. The staff is always friendly. We always feel appreciated. We've seen a lot of musical acts here. The owner really knows music and is well connected. They have a three day music festival next month that we'll check out. This place is a real gem. Bring your dog (and a leash). Bring your friends. Bring your kids. Check it out :-)

Great food, great wine, great company! This Rueben Sandwich is amazing with green chilies. The potato salad is fresh, complex and flavorful! You can tell all ingredients are fresh! The Chef Salad is just the same. Fresh, complex, crunchy, and a good mix of hearty ingredients and quality lettuce, not just iceberg.

Beautiful location with a gift shop of local crafts. Winery includes 3 tasting option as well as bottles and glasses of your faves. There is a couple sweet options but if you like bold reds this is the place for you. The new brewery is a couple steps away and has live music on the weekends. On cold days they supply heaters and hot days have fans and large open garage doors. Right now they have 6 beers, all smooth from an amber to a stout. Great time for everyone!

We went there because our favorite band the Shop Dawgs were playing. Rising Sun was introducing their new brewery, Yequa Creek. Lots of good folks and a great time. I heard their new beer tasted really good too.

Great atmosphere, beer, and if course wine. Southern hospitality at its finest. Kid friendly. Live music on Saturdays.

Perfect as always, Thank you Shayna for the wine tasting and for all the delicious small bites.

At the start of Spring Break we looked for a 2 to 3 day road trip from home to visit our daughters and their families. Wanting something for everyone, I looked for a winery along our route and found Rising Sun. Since this area isn't known as wine country my expectations weren't too high. But what we found was a very nice and inviting facility with a small but well/furnished tasting room and patio next to a pavilion with live music. Our daughter and friend met us there and we all had various varieties of wine. Everyone was pleased with their choices and the charcuterie was a delicious addition. The layout is family-friendly and large enough to the point that other families' children won't bother you. We're planning another visit in the near future.

Great wine! Beautiful covered outdoor area with a spectacular view of the sunset.

This was an awesome experience for my wife's birthday. The staff was welcoming and helpful. It was worth the drive and is somewhere we can't wait to go back.
Beautiful property, also a Harvest Host, I enjoyed parking my rig beside the vinyard and listening to the live music on a Saturday afternoon!

Everything about this place is great, love the live bands, relaxing atmosphere, wine is awesome, great pizza, and charcuterie board. Plus they love our Callie’s girl, golden doodle.

Beautiful winery and a fantastic experience every time! Steve and Sandy are great hosts and put on awesome Wine Club events several times a year. I'd highly recommend visiting!

This was a wonderful surprise! We had passed the sign before driving down 290 but never turned in. Today we went and were lucky to have gorgeous weather. Most of the seating is outside, either covered on the porch or under the trees at picnic tables. What a beautiful property! The vines look healthy and beautiful. There is also a covered pavilion and live music started while we were there. The woman who hosted our tasting was friendly and helpful. A tasting is three wines for $12. We had to rosé, two white, and two red. They also have a watermelon wine but we did not try that today. Some of the wines are grown on the property, others are from elsewhere in Texas, and some are from California. Although the Texas wines were not the very best I've had, they were quite good and coupled with the pleasant experience this made for a wonderful afternoon. We had a very nice little charcuterie board with a glass each after the tasting. Such a refreshing change from the overpopulated Fredericksburg and Johnson City scene. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful facility out in the wide blue open!The winery is air conditioned and there's tables on the porch as well as in the pole barn (what my dad called them). Except our pole barn was full of tractors and equipment; this one is beautiful with chandeliers and a huge tv (football!)!
