My husband and I booked a tour for a Monday and we were picked up by Ally, in a comfortable Mercedes van. There were 3 other couples that joined us.
We stopped at Wedding Oak, Slate Theory and Texas Wine Collective. Each place had a great and different type of experience.
Wedding Oak was a nice, sit down tasting with in depth explanations of the wines that we tasted and our lunch. Everything was great! Including lunch. We bought 3 bottles of wine there.
Slate Theory was a production tour, which was very educational and interesting. We learned a lot and got to try some very good wines with very unique names. The tasting rooms were absolutely beautiful, each with a completely different style and chandelier. We also got to see the production floor. We got 2 bottles there.
The Texas Wine Collective was a nice variety, with 3 different flight options. They had a combination of the 3 wineries served there. Our server was great and had a good sense of humor. 3 bottles there.
We thoroughly enjoyed all of the places we went, the company and our wonderful hostess/designated driver. Thank you so much Ally! We couldn't have had a...
Read moreOur Cable Car Wine Tour was an exceptional experience, truly a 10 out of 10! We were especially grateful for our guide, Ms. Sandy, who ensured our comfort and enjoyment throughout the day.

Ms. Sandy's thoughtful provision of water and snacks was a delightful touch that added to our comfort. This tour undeniably offers excellent value for money; it was worth every penny. A highlight of the tour was lunch at Charleston Taylor Estate, my favorite stop, where Jared provided outstanding service. For those celebrating a birthday, anniversary, or other special occasion, I highly recommend mentioning it when you make your reservation. The special shout out I received was a lovely touch that made me feel truly special. As a first-time visitor to Fredericksburg from Houston, I can confidently say...
Read moreMy wife and I had a great time during the tour. We met other couples and enjoyed drinking and trying wine. Our tour guide was great as well. However, after the trip was over and we were dropping off other guest, the half of the wine we purchased was given to another couple. This was made worse by the supervisor calling me and saying we are not responsible for your own wine bottles and should have watched them. Even though throughout the trip anytime anyone order wine the tour guide took it and wrote our names on the bag and put them in the back of the van, where no one could see them. If we return we will be taking our own trip instead if...
