That being said, for San Antonio wine lovers looking to taste some of the best wines Texas has to offer (along with all the other out-of-state and international varieties), make sure you check out these 3 local wine tasting events.

2. 28th Annual Gruene Music & Wine Fest

Located about 25 miles Northeast of the city in Braunfels, the festival runs from Thursday-Sunday with a unique wine/music event each day. No matter the event, however, each one will have a distinct focus on Texas-made wines and local Texas artists. You can save money on tickets by ordering them online beforehand, but you need to hurry because they’re selling out quick!
