We are going to be staying at the little white house at the Tonkawaya Ranch. We are looking at the wine tours and possibly the cellar rat wine tours on the 3rd and the 290 wine shuttle on the 4th. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Becker is really nice and I believe that weekend they are having their "grape stomp". Right by Becker is Fat arse Ranch and Winery. I've heard it was a pretty cool place to go. Also, if you're into bourbon, Garrison Brothers is in that area also.

We just came back from there. We did 290 Wine Tours, you pay $25 a person and they bring you to as many wineries as you want. It's just a shuttle really but I found it to be a better value and I got to choose where to go. As for wineries, I liked fat arse.

Don't do wine tastings. It is a rip off. Look for a bottle you think you will like and buy it, it will be a better deal.

Bring a cooler with sandwhich meats, summer sausage, cheese and other snacks. (crackers, waters, etc.) You will thank me later. Places like Becker have outdoor seating where you can drink a bottle and eat a picnic lunch.

We always enjoy dinner at Hill Top Café outside of town on Highway 87. Always worth the drive.

You probably wont have time, but I love hiking Enchanted Rock when I'm in Fredericksburg. It's really beautiful and not a hard climb at all.
