Traveling the world has been our passion in search of hidden gems around the world our goal. We sure found one during our last visit to Texas visiting our son who is attending Texas A & M and discovered Messina Hof Winery. The wine is a perfect blend and paired with the beautiful setting made for a most special visit. The staff clearly finds joy in serving the customers. The energy resonates from the owner and founder Paul whos enthusiasm for all that is wine is infectious. Before you leave make sure you take a visit to the turtles in the pond out back. A whimsical ending to a perfect day. Looking forward to our next visit.

Love this winery! Hands down a great environment with amazing staff. The location is always clean and well kept. Highly recommend if you are looking for a place to unwind and enjoy a glass of wine. They offer both indoor/outdoor seating and a fabulous restaurant on site.

My fiancé and I had a wonderful stay here!! Gene, the innkeeper was so sweet and provided the best service we have ever had! She was extremely accommodating and so helpful. We absolutely loved everything about our stay! The room was beautiful, with a great view, and the wine was amazing. We will definitely be returning!

The place was beautiful, the food was great. People there are so kind and helpful. Absolutely loved the duck preparation I had for lunch. We did not try wine, I dont have much idea about wine also. But we bought one bottle before we leave, it was cheap and good tasting.

I had always been a loyal Messina Hof customer, but I generally like to try different wines. This inclination to try a new wine or stick with an oldie, but a goodie always seems to flow with the mood I’m in. Usually, when I’m in the mood to indulge in something I know is good, I’ll kind of let the decision come to me. Sometimes I’ll just think about what I’m planning to make for dinner that day or sometimes I’ll just make a list of 3-4 wines that just pop into my head and decide on one after the list (spoiler alert: there’s always at least 1 Messina Hof wine on these lists). Sometimes though, and this is the reason I’m even writing this post, I’ll let social media decide for me haha! I recently started following the Messina Hof Instagram page and at times I’ll find myself scrolling through my feed on a day that I’m craving a reliable wine and I won’t even have to think because BAM out of nowhere I’ll see a fun post from Messina Hof with a great caption. Right then and there, the decision is usually made for me! I don’t follow too many winery instagrams, but of the ones that I do Messina Hof’s posts just really seem to stick out above the rest. As a bit of a social media fanatic myself, I know the effort that it takes to have such attention to detail so I just wanted to throw some appreciation out there! The people managing social media here are doing a great job and I just wanted to recognize them haha!

We had a very relaxing lunch there with an excellent waiter Bryan Collins. Warm turkey club was delicious especially with sangria and the meatball appetizer was a large portion enjoyed with the Sophia Rose. Plenty of space between tables, large high ceiling garden room and only 1 other group in the restaurant at 12:15. Restaurant open Thurs thru Sat. Tasting room personnel very helpful also. Everyone wore masks.

We had a great experience as Harvest Host members. The Messina Hof visit was fantastic with very friendly staff Micheal and Anna were super nice and accommodating we loved the wine bar and all the options. We had a great night stay and would absolutely return if in the area again. The wine was fantastic.

Active-producing winery with wines, a tasting room, a restaurant, as well as a B&B. Complex is located near to Bryan, TX. We joined during one of their Harvest Festivals, where we picked grapes for about 30 minutes, got to stomp on them a bit, then toured the facility. $35 harvest package included harvesting, stomping, a tour, and three samples of various locally produced wines (about 1/2 ounce per pour). Next level ticket at $75 (included tax and mandatory gratuity) included a lunch buffet upstairs with a single glass of wine. Staff was excellent, lunch was good (especially enjoyed the chicken, wish the dining room had been a little nicer). It was very interesting the see the family who owns the company (with their small children) come out and present, speak, and even talk to guests at the tables after the harvesting event. For those folks who had previously visited Napa and expect a regal experience in an immaculate tasting room, this is not the tour for you; this is a production-facility and you get taken right inside. Additionally, the tours consisted of a lot of families with small children, so this may not work for couples wanting to go on a romantic date. Grounds behind the pond area were not very well maintained, but there were a ton of turtles in the pond. Can recommend, but wish the price included more wine and less shirts.

We enjoyed brunch here a few weeks ago - the table side French toast was a big hit (see photo with the flames for the dramatic preparation of this treat). The staff was extremely helpful. We had two gluten-free, dairy-free diners in our party, and we were especially thrilled that they could be accommodated. The gluten free pasta was delicious!After brunch, we strolled next door for wine tasting and feeding the turtles at the pond just beyond. The grounds are really lovely - Im sure they have some beautiful weddings here.Thanks for a lovely weekend meal - we will definitely be back!

At the last moment the governor shut all bars in Texas down. We were on our way to Messina hof for a delayed anniversary and birthday celebration. The entire staff made adjustments to this situation and saved the weekend. The bed and breakfast along with the restaurant crew were outstanding. We will definitely be returning when this virus situation is back to normal. Thanks for a great weekend the food and wine as always was outstanding.

We love this winery! It is the perfect get away. It’s about an hour drive from the Houston area. The wine is fantastic, the tour is fascinating/informative and the grounds are beautiful.

Went there to celebrate my 9 year wedding anniversary. Very nice establishment with good customer service. We stayed at the bed and breakfast which came with a wine tour and a wine tasting. We did the Cellar tour. Very informative and fun. I love how they kept wine in our glasses. This was a great way to celebrate and we will definitely be back in the future. I definitely give it the EJ Stamp of Approval

My wife and I had a great time at the Messina Hof Winery. We were lucky enough to stay in the villa. We ended up sleeping in the Camelot room which was describe great by the tour that was included along with the wine tasting for one night stay in the villa. I would highly recommend this Winery and Messina Hof wines

Messina Hof Winery is amazing.This winery is a hidden gem!Our evening started with wine tasting, where we selected a bottle and stayed for dinner.The dining room entrance and seating area is exquisite. We enjoyed dinner relaxing in high back chairs surrounded with beautiful vineyard views and stained glass atmosphere.The food was delicious. We were impressed with the flavors of the antipasto plate. All the employees were helpful & friendly!Top this off with Amazing wines!!!An outstanding experience all the way around.Thank you for allowing us to spend the evening and providing your property to Harvest Hosts members!Bob & Carol

This was our second visit to the Restaurant at Messina. It is always a wonderful experience and the staff and atmosphere made it a memorable birthday for my wife from the wonderful salad to the flavorful entrées and the table side dessert made with in house liquors and chocolate. The walk around the pond and feeding the turtles rounded out the evening. A fantastic night for me and my best friend in the hole world.

Doug was knowledgeable, friendly, and gave a great tour. The wine tasting afterwards was enjoyable. The grounds and buildings were pristine & picturesque and I would love to book a room at The Villa for a getaway weekend. This was a relaxing, fun adult activity. Wear shoes that you dont mind getting a little dirty. I wore suede boots & had to be careful walking around the vineyard & stepping over little puddles.

We went on a tour at Messina Hof at the Bryan location, and had a wonderful time. Very nice people, and the service was wonderful. The wine and cheese tasting was my favorite part. One wine stuck in my head like a thorn in my foot. The delicious Tawny Port. It was like liquid candy. Sweet, earthy, nutty. I wish I lived closer to the Hof. I would be there every weekend.

We arrived around 5:00pm and there was no one there. We found an envelope with our name on it and a key. We had to find our room and get settled in by ourselves. The room did not have any extra toilet paper only what was left on the roll and by the next morning that ran out!!! Also, there were only three pillows on the bed and they were flat as pancakes but there was no one there to request any more. Once someone was there the next day we asked and were told they could only give us one more! We never met the Inn keeper although the owner came by to introduce himself at breakfast. We stayed two nights but didn’t sleep well not sure if it was the bedding or lack of pillows!

Its a great winery. Tons of cute photo areas. They do have a water feature/man made lake with a fountain and a trail that goes all the way around it, vineyards are in full bloom in July/August. But early summer has a ton of greenery still. Highly recommend eating at the restaurant and staying at the villas. They offer packages where you can do all of it, look online for it. I prefer this location over the one in Fredericksburg.

Wow, best wines and cheese! Nice view and huge green vineyard. This is a romantic place where couples go and chill out. They also have a venue to host wedding at. This I think is a cool facility of its kind. They winery is open to visits and they have large vineyard behind the resort. Customers can take a walk in and get refreshed.

We went for the Valentines dinner and had a great time. Food was great, will definitely be coming back to have something from the daily menu. The only thing I would advise is to invest in sturdier chairs. There was a incident that involved a patron that ended up finding 1 chair was actually broke. It seemed the chairs were made out of plastic and were very flimsy. Other than that, everything else was great.

We spent the night at the b&b. The room was huge! And beautifully decorated. The overnight stay included a tour of the winery which was very informative and well done. Never before has a tour let me eat the grapes off of the vine. Also included was a cheese platter and glass of wine - delightful! And the breakfast served fresh peach crepes and sausage - delicious! A definitely great place to visit and stay!

Celebrated our Sons graduation from TAMU so decided to take advantage of newer relaxed Covid restrictions. We paired wines for each meal course. Service and meal were fantastic. Panko breaded brie cheese appetizer was amazing and remainder of meal just as satisfying. The Grenache rose made me think of a recent trip to Provence.

First time going to Messina Hof, and there aren’t enough words to explain how awesome our trip was. We stayed at The Villa and from the very second we walked in, Ms Jean was so helpful and super nice. She treated us as if we were staying at her house and made us feel so welcomed. The wine bar was a hop across the sidewalk away from our room which made the weekend so convenient. The folks working at the wine bar were so informative and the food was DELISH! And then there was Michael at the tasting room. OMG how much fun was he?!? The tour was fun and very informative and he walked us through several more wines. We enjoyed a nice romantic dinner at the Vintage Restaurant. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was unbelievable. Needless to say, we left Messina Hof with A LOT of yummy wines, and I even joined the wine club. During Sunday brunch at the Villa, the owners Paul and Meriel came by to visit before heading off to church. They were so welcoming as well. We will definitely be back to Messina Hof. We can’t stop talking about!! The attention that’s given to everyone while there is truly remarkable.

Most people know that the bar is a great social spot and the wine needs little praise (as it is very good) but the two visits at the restaurants.For dinner, we enjoyed the dinner for two, which was perfectly cooked and served. But what we did not expect was the wonderful and professional service by Tammy. Im not sure if she is the manager or the head of house, but she ensured that we had a wonderful meal experience. I cant rave more about the kind service and treatment given, with wonderful ambiance.We returned for brunch, which was delicious and beautiful as well, with the sun coming over the vineyard, it was relaxing to watch the sun hit the rows of growing grapes and relax with mimosas. I will say the brunch is extremely filling: the hash would easily feed two, as would the french toast. So choose your menu items with your stomach, not your eyes, or else youll go home with two doggy bags like we did! Finally, we were served brunch by Omar, who was great, attentive, but also genuine and kind. We would not mind having him serve us every time, and has Tammy around to make us feel warm and welcome. This is truly how to run a fine dining restaurant.

Being from Northern California, I was a bit skeptical about the taste of these wines. My husband and I took our son while visiting him in grad school at A&M in May. We were delightfully surprised! We did not have any of the ice wines. The grapes tasted like Italian/California varietals. Their token tasting system is a bit odd but thats ok. A new staff member Allison Herd was very helpful. My son has been back there with his girlfriend. The grounds are beautiful, the restaurant and the turtle pond; a great afternoon!

We travelled here from Mico. Tx in a Rockwood Mini Lite travel trailer (2304ks). The trip here was excellent and the stay was outstanding!The RV parking was generous in size and had 1 30amp outlet plus many other 110v outlets.Parking area was a gravel surface with easy in and easy out.The venue was outstanding! Super wine tasting, outstanding wine tour, and an outstanding pizza dinner meal afterwards!A special thank you to the Aggie ladies that guided us thru the wine tasting and tour. It was a great overnight (Harvest Host) stop - we will definitely stop in again when we travel ths way again.

AMAZING!! This was by far the best winery on the tour. They were exceptionally nice, had fantastic customer service and very interactive. You get to pick the samples you want to taste, with several on the list to choose. We stopped at 5 wineries, did 3 tastings that day, and hands down the best tasting wine we had all day. We had a large group of 9 and they did not have any trouble accommodating us. Would definitely make another visit here!

My daughters wedding was held at Messina Hof in Bryan Tx on June 8th this year. We worked with their coordinator Sarah and she was GREAT. So professional and patient. She took care of every detail for us. All we had to do was show up and enjoy ourselves. Sarah also arranged all of the vendors and we were happy with them as well. I would not hesitate to recommend Sarah and Messina Hof in Bryan to anyone. It was the wedding my daughter and her groom wanted and more.

We took a drive from Houston to check out the Winery on a Tuesday afternoon. We arrived a little after 2pm. We decided to stand at the bar in the tasting room to partake in some tasting. The bartenders made their suggestions but we ultimately made our own selections. They had a special of 5 tastings for $12 which worked for us, we tasted 10 wines between the 2 of us. We enjoyed the wines and it was nice during the week because it was not crowded.

We have gone out to Messina Hof twice in two months and had terrible service both times. The first time I blew it off because it was busy. This last time there was barely anyone there and the bartender, Skylar was still short and rude. I enjoy the wines, but won’t be going out to the wine bar anytime soon. There are other wineries in the area with better service. Pretty disappointing because I love the atmosphere.

Date night to the Vineyard House for dinner after the Cellar Tour, and really enjoyed the quiet romantic atmosphere. We had two plates of the Maple Leaf Duck which were quite good, and two glasses of Private Reserve Paulo Port wine with the Port Fudge Sunday. All for less than one hundred dollars. (Excluding the tour) Dress for your occasion, but Id recommend formal wear. We saw everything from suits and fancy dresses to untucked shirts and shorts.

Austin was our tour guide and he was awesome! The tour was very informative. It really doesnt matter what time of day you go because the outdoor portion of the tour is only about ten minutes, so its not too long in the heat. After the tour, Austin gave us even more samples in the tasting room. Then we had lunch in their restaurant, located next door to the tasting room. The service was good and so was the food. On the weekends, they have a brunch menu. I will definitely go back.

I recently attended the Wine and Roses Festival and they were not at all prepared for the weather. Weve known for a week that it was going to storm, setting up your check in as a tent isnt going to work. They didnt have a good backup plan, we waited for 1.5 hrs before we could check in. By the time we got our glasses most of the vendors had left. If youre going to throw an outdoor event you have to have a backup plan. The staff werent helpful and it was just chaos. I spent $45 on tickets and didnt get to enjoy it. We were bored and tired by 3pm, so I just cashed out the rest of mine for a bottle to take home. Your wines are great but I think Ill just stick to buying them from the store. I hope yall have a better plan next year, we are very disappointed.

Our stay at the villa was great! The price for the room was reasonable, the location was beautiful, and it was quiet and secluded. Our room came with a complementary wine tour and wine and cheese tasting. The wine tour was informative and our guide was fantastic. She was very knowledgable and personable and answered our questions in detail. She was also willing to say that she didnt know the answer to a question, rather than trying to come up with a BS answer on the spot. Great tour for beginners to wine! The cheese that came with our wine and cheese tasting was delicious, and my only complaint with it is that I wish we had been given a recommendation for a wine pairing for the cheeses, rather than just picking any glass without guidance. We had a fabulous time. I wish I could say that the restaurant was as fantastic as the rest of our stay, but it wasnt. We arrived on a Sunday and went to brunch before we checked in, because the restaurant is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays (which is unfortunate, but I completely understand them needing to be closed some days for events and whatnot). They were relatively busy when we got there, so we were prepared to wait a little longer to be seated and for our food to come out. We walked in the door and were ignored twice by servers who came up to speak to a different group of people who arrived at the same time as us. It took about 7 minutes before we were even spoken to or acknowledged, and we were seated a few minutes after that. Our server approached us and explained that they were busy and short staffed, which we were completely understanding of. A few things fell through the cracks, like water refills, and it took some time to get our wine and appetizer, but I was annoyed by how rude our server was. She interrupted us mid sentence and seemed annoyed to be answering questions. I understand having several other tables and needing to move quickly to get things done, but we were not demanding and we had very few questions for her. Even after the restaurant quieted down and we were some of the few people left in the restaurant, our service did not improve. Im not impressed with the service at all. The food was alright, it was a little disappointing but the focal point of the business really is the wine, not the food. The wine was phenomenal, the villa was romantic and relaxing, and the grounds were beautiful. If you are planning to visit, I highly recommend it. Just dont expect much from the restaurant itself.

Was there for a friends wedding. The recent rains drove the wedding inside to the wine cellar. This made for a unique and intimate venue, which might have been better than outside in the grape arbors.

Our group of ladies took the Wine tasting tour starting at 10:30 am . We were greeted by a seasoned employee of 9 years ( Male ) that was to be our tour guide and teach us a little history of how Messina Hof was started and wine was made. Our tour guide was not very friendly and I assume by his condescending tone that he was very tired of answering questions from boring ladies ! The whole wine tasting tour was a great disappointment !

A must do place. The staff is so polite and helpful. The wine is so good. Make sure you drink water with your tastings, so you dont leave with a buzz (especially if youre driving). My favorites are the Muscat Mistella and the Sparkling Almond Champagne. I am a happy 6 yr member of their wine club.
