The winery in the Edinburg area features a new pavilion where live music can be enjoyed on Sundays. The friendly winetenders offer a 4 wine flight for visitors to sample. Additionally, guests can explore a walking trail and enjoy tastings in a gazebo with picturesque valley views.

Unfortunate experience

This was our sixth winery stop and I was excited because there were positive reviews regarding the wine and the kindness of the owners.

The drive was beautiful. Scenic clear blue skies scattered with lush green farms, cows lazing about and horses relaxing in the sun. The air was crisp and it smelled like summer; the perfect day for friends, wine and cheese. It was a beautiful day and we were happy, I was happy.

And then we sat down.

Six of us. Before anything the owner only carded me, a dark skinned Bangladeshi woman and my African American friend ignoring our four other light skinned friends. A group of white women were seated near us after we arrived; he never asked any of them for an id while serving their wine before us. My white friend offered the owner his id and he nodded away that he didn't need it. They asked him if he was going to Id anyone else, and the owner said no. He gave us glasses from a box that seemed like it was just delivered and therefore not washed, no sanitizer. It just seemed off.

After two rounds of the tasting we realized that the racism was real, and not something that may have been lost in translation as we hoped it was. When we let him know that we wanted to close the tab he shooed us off in a way that was clear that he didn't want us there, but wanted to be rid of us as soon as possible.

In a day and age where we're all Americans thankful for the freedoms given to us by being born and living in this country, working hard, paying our taxes, being good citizens - this was sad and unrepresentative of the America I know and love. I didn't expect this treatment, I had high hopes for this winery and I'm sad to say that I'll never visit it again. I'd like to caution anyone who is browned skinned when visiting.

The wine we had was fine, it had notes of racism.
