Texas Wine Shop & Bistro Overview
Nestled in Deep East Texas and surrounded by the lush forests near Lake Sam Rayburn and Toledo Bend, Texas Wine Shop & Bistro offers a unique blend of local wines and diverse dining options. This family-owned establishment features a vineyard specializing in muscadine grapes and provides a quaint bistro experience complementary to its wine offerings.
History and Background
Texas Wine Shop & Bistro began its journey in January 2007, with a vision of creating a muscadine vineyard. This dream materialized as Sarah's Vineyard on Carter Creek, which has now grown to become the largest muscadine vineyard in Texas, spanning 20 acres.
Vineyard Details and Wine Production
The vineyard’s primary produce, the muscadine grapes, are native to the Southeastern United States and are known for their robust antioxidant levels and distinct fruity flavors. From these grapes, the winery produces its exclusive "Jewels of the Forest" line of wines:
- Sweet
- Red
- Rose
- Bronze
Additionally, Texas Wine Shop & Bistro is home to an innovative Acai Wine, crafted entirely from the açai berries harvested from the Amazon, capturing the exotic floral notes akin to blueberries, raspberries, and pomegranates.
