Texas Bluebonnet Wine Trail: A Tour for the Senses

May 27, 2014 by

You may have visited a winery before, but have you ever visited seven wineries all in one place? The Texas Bluebonnet Wine Trail offers visitors the opportunity to do just that, all while enjoying the sights of scenic southeast Texas.

Each of the wineries offers the usual tours, grape stomps, wine tastings, and other activities that are perfect for wine aficionados; however, the Texas Bluebonnet Wine Trail stands out from the crowd because it also hosts events a few times throughout the year that incorporate all seven wineries at once, creating a sort of block party among the wineries. The Harvest Trail event, for example, gives guests a pair of tastings at each winery, as well as a food pairing to go with them. Visitors can mingle with one another over the course of a weekend, all while enjoying the warm breezes of the Texas summer.
