About Bernhardt Winery
Bernhardt Winery is the Houston area's leading destination vineyard, a working estate north of Houston in Plantersville that has become a weekend escape for the city's wine-curious population. The winery produces estate wines from grapes grown in the sandy soils of Washington County, including varieties specifically selected for their ability to thrive in the Gulf Coast's warm, humid climate.
The estate vineyard focuses on Blanc du Bois, Black Spanish, and Lenoir, the same Pierce's Disease-resistant varieties that have proven most reliable in East and South Texas, alongside other warm-climate selections. The result is wines with a distinctly Texas-coastal character that differs from both the Hill Country and High Plains styles.
Bernhardt is a social destination as much as a wine tasting stop, with outdoor event spaces, music on weekends, and a property designed for group visits and celebrations. The combination of genuine viticulture with accessible, fun hospitality has made it a repeat destination for Houston families and friend groups.
