First opened in 1975 by the Auler family, Fall Creek Vineyards goal is to take advantage of the unique Hill Country microclimate north of Austin. Since its opening, the vineyard has developed into one of Texas’s best wineries. Named after the gorgeous creek that winds through the property before emptying into the Colorado River at an amazing waterfall, visitors can tour the lovely property and also enjoy sampling many of Fall Creek’s high-quality wines. On nice days, sit outside and enjoy the great views of Lake Buchanan. Visitors remark that the tour is a little short, but it gets extra points for giving visitors the chance to get their feet in the action by stomping some grapes themselves. The winery has been in the news lately with the unveiling of Meritus, a new super-premium red that has won raves from critics all over the world as possibly the best wine produced in the state of Texas. Fall Creek also hosts a number of events throughout the year, so be sure to visit their website to check out all the fun offerings.
