Set on 32 acres, Halter Ranch’s newest tasting room has opened and features a rich selection of wines and an elevated restaurant that offers seasonal, organic cuisine that celebrates the Texas Hill Country’s local bounty.

Halter Ranch Texas is poised to be a standout destination on the Texas Highway 290 wine road, according to a news release. Located about one hour from San Antonio and Austin, the property honors its Texas home and invites guests to explore fine wine from organic grapes and delectable, locally sourced cuisine at the tasting room’s Restaurant H. The menu, led by Executive Chef Paul Arangorin, is sourced from Texas and will change regularly to reflect the season.

Led by Halter Ranch Winemaker Kevin Sass, Halter Ranch Texas’ expansive wine selection includes a new Texas-made rosé and a sparkling cabernet sauvignon. Sass partners with two Texas farmers who harvest organic grapes and work closely with Bending Branch Winery in Comfort, Texas, to produce the wines. With plans to innovate and experiment, Sass says he’s in the process of planting 1 acre of organic Blanc du Bois grapes on the Halter Ranch Texas property.
