Messina Hof Estate Winery - Winery in Bryan - 4545 Old Reliance Rd, USA

Gabe and Peyton in the wine bar were outstanding hosts. They were happy to share their knowledge and pick some great wines for us to taste. We had a great time.

The wife and I wanted to try something new so we did our first wine tour and if this is what they’re all like damn we’ve been missing out! Jacob was our tour guide and did a wonderful job explaining everything to us novice guests. Good wine, good times! I highly recommend taking a tour of this lovely location.

Excellent dining experience at the Vintage House restaurant. We joined the VIP club and went back the next day for lunch at the wine bar. Our new favorite place! We love the wine, the food, and the amazing staff!

This was our first time and the waiter Gabriel Poole was phenomenal! He took his time with us and explained everything! We will 100% be returning. Great wine and Great service!

I'm a little spoiled with California and North Carolina wines, and Texas grapes certainly aren't on par. However, that said, these guys get it right. An awesome set up and very appealing vineyard/tasting room with nice food offerings. Service was pretty slow, but they were jam packed with visitors there for the concert that night. We liked it well enough to sign up as a member so we could get some offerings in our wine cellar at home in Texoma. One little side note. They have a quaint little Bed and Breakfast where you can stay overnight at the vineyard. We plan on doing that during a trip through the area in the future.

My wife and I had a wonderful experience with Gabriel Poole today. The wines were delicious and Gabriel’s expertise definitely added to the experience. We will be back!

My friends and I went here for our first time today full of excitement as it has been a place we have been wanting to go for forever. It was a rainy and disgusting day, but we also knew it was one of out last free weekends of the semester. We initially accidentally went to "The Vintage House" but the host was super helpful and steered us in the right direction to the tasting room. However, when we got to the tasting room, the vibes were automatically different. The hostess treated us in a condescending manner and was very unclear about the process. We explained it was our first time here but still feel like we were left in the dark. We put our name down for a table while she told us to go wait outside, since we weren't allowed to be in the tasting room. We asked how we should know when our table is ready and she responds, "Well look at your phone in 45 minutes and then come back in". Okay... We're finally seated and the first thing our waiter says when she comes up to us is "the hostess said y'all would just tell me what you want" after not having received a menu or having made that statement. The hostess and our waitress would point at us and then whisper to one another which made us all uncomfortable. We proceeded to have terrible experience. There was no consistency between how much wine was poured in our glasses. We ordered food and items in the meal would be mentioned would be missing until we asked for them. Everyone in the restaurant had glasses of water, which were not given them to us until we asked and by then the check had come. We finally asked our waitress how long she had been working, hoping to give her the benefit of the doubt, but she had been there 6 months already. The wine was amazing and the food was great, but the service ultimately destroyed our experience. After having multiple friends have been here and our sorority hosing events here in the past, we were excited, but ended up disappointed. We will not be returning.
