Details of All Day Package -

Your Fun Begins at 8:00am…
After a brief orientation, you and your group are sent off to our 42-acre estate vineyard to pick the grapes that will be placed into service! You may even break into a Sicilian song with the winemaker himself, Messina Hof Co-Founder, Paul Bonarrigo. These are the very grapes that will go into the making of Messina Hof’s award-winning port.

The Big Kahuna Competition – While in the field, make sure to look for the most interesting and unique cluster to enter the Big Kahuna We award the person with the best looking grape cluster and talent; this person is the Kahuna for the day!

Once your finished picking, enjoy a little grape stomping – complete with your very own souvenir t-shirt, “signed” with your purple feet! And when the Messina Hof Ports hit the shelves in your favorite store or wine shop, you get to say that you were a part of something special!

Next… Dine at our Harvest Luncheon
Our Chefs from The Vintage House Restaurant use on the freshest ingredients for our trademark “Texas Vineyard Cuisine”. Perfect after a historical day of Harvest. Enjoy hand-selected and hand-cut meats, herbs and vegetables from our vineyard garden, and, of course, our award-winning wines that are part of every recipe.

Then…Our Food & Wine Pairing Party
You’ll learn how to match the right foods with the right wines, like a pro! That’s because a pro will be guiding you through every step. These interactive seminars are conducted by Messina Hof Co-Founder and Cookbook Author, Merrill Bonarrigo.
