Disguised as a shed, this unassuming building is actually home to one of the Texas Hill Country's most unique wineries. Just beyond these doors lies a staircase descending below the earth's surface, where the precious juice is hiding.

Serving as a cellar and tasting room, this underground wine cave has a speakeasy vibe about it. Adding to the old-fashioned charm are walls reclaimed from a horse barn and birch plywood panels throughout.
