Welcome to Whistling Duck Vineyards & Winery
A “UNIQUELY TEXAS” COUNTRY WINERY
We invite you to visit our quaint, Texas country winery and tasting room nestled at the edge of our 4 acre vineyard. We are located a little “off-the-beaten-path”, but once you arrive, we hope you’ll sit back, relax and enjoy the laid-back and fun atmosphere of our little piece of the Texas countryside.
Belly up to our tasting bar or our custom-made wine barrel tables and enjoy a glass of one of our handcrafted Texas wines. Or, relax in the country breeze on one of our covered “wine sippin’” porches. If the mood strikes you, grab one of our delicious cheese trays and make your own picnic under one of the many large oak trees dotting the property. If you get tired of sitting, amble down to the pond for a glimpse of some wildlife or wild flowers, or take a stroll through the vineyard to witness where your wine started. We want you to feel right at home here.
OUR VISION
Our vision for Whistling Duck Vineyards & Winery is the careful blending of nature, fine wine, friendly Texas hospitality, and a tranquil country setting where the most sophisticated wine drinkers and those who have never even tasted wine can come to sample our wines, relax, have fun, and feel like they’re part of our family.
Our slogan at Whistling Duck Vineyards & Winery is “Porch Sittin’, Wine Sippin’, Country Trippin’ – FUN!”

SUNDAY LIVE MUSIC SERIES!
THIS SUNDAY, May 15th
"Sunday Serenades with
VALERIE LEE"
2 to 4 PM
Join us this Sunday, May 15th, from 2 to 4 PM, for our SUNDAY LIVE MUSIC SERIES, "Sunday Serenades with VALERIE LEE!"
Valerie, a Houston native, joined the Top 40 variety band, Bittersweet, right out of high school. Two months later, the band was signed by the Ed Gerlach Agency and Bittersweet began playing venues from Texas to California.
After several years with Bittersweet, Valerie returned to her roots to sing country music. She joined Jef & the Kickers, one of the most popular country bands along the Texas Gulf Coast. Several years and many South Texas dancehalls later, Jef & Valerie left the band and began performing as a duo. In 1984, Jef & Valerie took first place in the national Marlboro Country Talent Round-up, winning the final round at the world-famous Gilley's nightclub. Jef & Valerie went on to open shows for country music superstars like George Jones, Merle Haggard, Ronnie Milsap, Asleep at the Wheel, and many others.
Valerie eventually moved to Nashville, where she recorded an album. But, after 15 years away, she’s back and performing again in the South Texas area. Valerie sings a variety of music from country standards and recent hits, to pop, blues, big band, and oldies. There'll be something for everyone's taste. She calls it MUSIC FOR GROWNUPS! And if the mood strikes you, you're welcome to get up and dance! We are open from 1 to 6 PM.
