I hope you went to the GHWBush Pacific War Museum and the Nimitz museum. Both are must see places in Fredericksburg.

Texas Hill Country wine is not good.

Tell your wine snob friends this..there was a study where wine snobs did a blind taste test. They were asked to discuss the flavor, what fruits they could taste, how dry it was, the country of origin..etc. they couldn’t tell the difference between a $5 screw top bottle from the grocery store and a $5,000 bottle of wine. Those people are nothing but pretentious phonies. That crap all tastes very similar and people who bloviate like your friends are just putting on airs and looking like idiots. I fricking hate wine snobs.

Narrow path sparkling (though that is made in California)
Would concede this. But if you want a weekend getaway it’s fine
Gotten so commercial now every shop has the same crap and is just junk. Comparatively the shops on Royal/magazine are a lot better but you can snag a few trinkits

I’ve been through there a dozen times, for work and vacationing to all the areas.
There is zero about it appealing above mediocre that you can’t just go do at a more appealing location

I haven’t been in a few (3-4) years, but every red wine had sour cherry notes. They were fine, but the wife and I didn’t buy a single bottle from any winery we went to, which is extremely unusual for us.
