I’m A Local

30th Anniversary Signature Party at Becker Vineyards from Thursday, Oct. 16 – 19, 2025. Our first grape harvest was 1995…we are celebrating 30 years of harvesting grapes and making wine with authentic Texas terroir! More information coming soon!

Harvest season is upon us! We invite you to join our family as we celebrate Messina Hof Hill Country Winery’s 13th Annual Harvest Festival. We are excited to continue the tradition of grape picking and stomping paired with our award-winning Texas wines.

Stroll our vineyard with friends and family as you pick the very grapes that will become our Hill Country’s exclusive Private Reserve Papa Paulo Port.

Once picked, take part in the old-world method of grape stomping that dates back to the ancient Romans. Make your mark by signing your souvenir “Harvest Crew” t-shirt with your very own purple footprints.
End your Daytime Harvest with a brunch box and mimosa bar when you upgrade to the Harvest Plus Pass!
