    Stephanie was our wine tasting coordinator and she was so fantastic! Gave us the story behind Covington Cellars and background on each wine we tried! We are beginners when it comes to wine, so she helped guide us without making us feel dumb! We did both the wine/food tasting as well as the wine/dessert tasting! Definitely loved the atmosphere, the music (live soft guitar!), the seating... a total positive experience!

    So much fun with my sisters! Elegant atmosphere with wonderful Texas country view. We did the Chocolate cheese pairing with the Washington State wines. My favorite was the Field blend ( a non drinker review). Will be back with to share experience with more family members.

    Their service is simply outstanding, along with world class wines. Great membership options to continue enjoying their wines at home. Facility is thoughtfully designed and their vineyards are beautiful with rolling hills in every direction.

    Our experience with Lauren couldn’t have been better. She was knowledgeable about the wines and a joy to chat with. We sat on the patio with our dog and the beautiful views. This winery is great for reds and views and great service. Worth the stop.

    This was a wonderful afternoon in the Fredericksburg area for our anniversary. Covington Cellars was our last stop and we are so glad we stopped by. The wine is wonderful, Lauren was very hospitable and helped us make great choices. It was a little too warm for outdoors today, but we'll be back in the fall and try outdoor seating and wine next time.

    Lauren, our guide to the wine tasting experience, was amazing! Great hospitality! We felt welcomed and enjoyed every second of our wine tasting experience, we learned a lot about wine too! The property is beautiful, highly recommend this hidden gem located in the Texas hill country!

    Stephanie was beyond great! She took her time to accommodate a move that she did not have to! She answered any questions our party had. This was my first time to this winery and i loved the openness. Cannot until it cool down to have wine on the patio! I also really enjoyed the spinach artichoke dip, it had little kick that I appreciated! 10/10 would recommend!

    Wonderful new winery for Fredericksburg. Old school Washington State winery now in TX. Amazing single varietals and TX / WA blends. Well worth the visit. Pamela Mason, the tasting and events host, is wonderful.

    Covington Hill Country is one of the best wine tasting experiences on 290 between Johnson City and Fredericksburg, TX. Some of the wines are 100% Texas wines, some are from Washington State, and some blend grapes sourced from both locations. We had 2 reserve tastings and a couple of appetizers (spinach artichoke dip and bruschetta), and everything was perfect. We left with 6 bottles of wine! The best part was that every single staff member came by our table and spoke to us while we were there, including Cindy, one of the owners. What a great experience!

    My absolute favorite stop on our trip! The owners, David and Cindy are the nicest people! Their staff is truly amazing and they all went out of their way for us! We were staying near by in our rv and were going to Uber downtown and they let us hitch a ride as they were headed there as well! The wine is truly delicious and they are very knowledgeable! I wish I could rate this place with all the stars because they deserve it in every aspect!!

    We are members of multiple wineries in the hill country and were excited to try a new one. This is by far one of the best experiences we have ever had. The wine is incredible. The customer service is superb. The view is magnificent. Highly, highly recommend.

    Don’t miss this winery -What an incredible surprise! We love to plan trips around wine venues -and are members of several California, WA and TX wineries. Without a doubt Covington has some of the best wines we have tasted in those regions and they are only an hour from our house. A major plus is the owner Cindy and manager Wendy -they made us feel like we were visiting in their living room. So knowledgeable, friendly and fun !! Of course we joined the wine club and looking forward to pickup Parties and wine dinners
