About 12 FIRES Winery and Vineyard
12 FIRES Winery and Vineyard brings a rustic-sophisticated energy to Johnson City, combining estate vineyard wines with a tasting room experience that balances Hill Country charm with genuine wine quality. The name evokes the controlled burns used in Texas land management, tying the winery's identity to the landscape.
The estate vineyard grows varieties suited to the Hill Country climate, with winemaking focused on balanced, food-friendly styles rather than fruit-bomb extraction. The tasting room offers guided flights in a warm, inviting space that feels more like a well-appointed ranch house than a commercial venue.
The Johnson City location positions 12 FIRES along the eastern end of the Hill Country wine trail, making it an ideal first or last stop for visitors traveling from Austin. The grounds are well-maintained and family-friendly, with outdoor seating that takes advantage of the Hill Country views.
