About Fall Creek Vineyards
Fall Creek Vineyards is one of the foundational names in Texas Hill Country wine. Established by Ed and Susan Auler in the 1970s, the winery helped build the case for the Texas Hill Country AVA and now welcomes visitors in both Driftwood and Tow.
The Driftwood location offers convenient access from Austin and a food-oriented experience, while the original Tow property connects visitors more directly with the winery's history near Lake Buchanan. Guests should verify the location before making plans.
