Amazing out-of-the-way wine tasting experience. We met the owner and she was awesome… Her story is very inspiring.

My wife and I recently visited Wine For The People…They certainly did not disappoint! We had the Rose of Cinsault and the Dolcetto – as well as Syrah from the High Plains – all excellent wines!….We ordered the charcuterie board which was overflowing with fresh baked bread, dried fruits, tasty meats and savory cheeses – well worth the cost.
— MICHAEL CAREW
Rae and Anne are not only gracious hosts, but they are making outstanding wines! What they are doing with Texas grapes is phenomenal!
— CAREY DIETERT
Incredible selection of both whites and reds. They’ve been perfecting the craft since 2014, and it shows. One of my new favorite 100% Texas wineries.
