Experience Details:
Discover limited and sought-after wines at William Chris Vineyards with our Reserve Tasting, a seated experience hosted in our Oak Room overlooking the beauty of Hye Estate. The glass walls let natural light create the perfect setting for you to explore a curated selection of rare library vintages and small-production wines not typically available in our standard tastings.
Guided by one of our knowledgeable ambassadors, you’ll enjoy five reserve pours that showcase the depth, character, and age-worthy potential of Texas-grown wine. Each sip is an opportunity to learn more about our “grown, not made” philosophy and to experience firsthand how time, place, and craft come together in every bottle.
If your group is larger than 6 guests, please contact our reservations team directly so we can accommodate your visit: 830.998.7654
