This place is an unexpected gem, unpretentious in a friendly town where people learning the names of seasonal visitors and deer hunters is the norm. The wine however suggests something far more than fancy. I have visited many wineries - in California as well as Texas - but have never had such an enjoyable tasting experience as what I've had here. While I have historically bought a bottle or maybe two at some wineries (sometimes out of sympathy), my first tasting at Wedding Oak made me want to buy multiple bottles each of several different varieties - white and red. My recommendations: Terra Blanc, Terra Rouge, Regency Bridge Red, Tioja (the absolute best), Sangiovesse, and Tempranillo.

Stopped in and expected to find a couple of bins of wines with at least one I'd like. Instead, we found an elegant, cozy gathering spot with knowledgeable servers and professional wine production. The varieties we sampled were all lush on the palate and none were "skip its" or amateurish. Normally a red drinker, I left with several whites & reds that required discipline to obey Texas open container laws. I loved the decor, especially the painting near the entrance that I dubbed the "wistfull bridesmaid".

The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. We sat out in their patio area. She recommended a wine they have that beer drinkers usually like, and she was right. Go there almost every time we are in San Saba. We went as a couple, but would be an awesome place to hang out with friends.

I have to say, this really is the most enjoyable winery we have been to, and we have been to most in the Hill Country. The old buildings have been beautifully renovated and this really adds to the pleasure of tasting some of their luscious wines. Our favorite is the Bridal Blush, but all we tried were excellent! All of the staff were very friendly and helpful, but we especially enjoyed our time with Heidi. She's very knowledgeable and a lot of fun, too! I'm sure we'll treat ourselves to another visit to Wedding Oak!
