Update: The tasting room in Lampasas has closed.
Alamosa Wine Cellars located in Bend is owned by Jim and Karen Johnson. To make their Texas wine more accessible to people not wanting to make the drive to the outskirts of Bend, they opened a tasting room in 2011 in Lampasas.
While we were in Lampasas, we had to make a stop to see the new tasting room. For some reason our GPS directed us out of town and we knew something was wrong. I called the tasting room and after getting some directions, we headed back into Lampasas and eventually found the tasting room.
There were people already in the tasting room and more came as we were there, so the Johnson’s idea of making their wine more accessible was definitely a good one.
All wine which is available at the winery is also available at the tasting room. Tastings can be done while standing at the dual tasting bar.
A nice gift shop is available with wine accessories and other gifts.
If you do not want to make the drive to visit the Alamosa Wine Cellars winery (which is definitely worth the drive), be sure to stop by the tasting room in Lampasas to taste and buy their Texas wine there.
