*Update from 5 stars to 3* The most recent pairing I went to with my husband was a far different experience than last time. I booked a chocolate and wine tasting for Valentine’s Day. The table was set up beautifully as usual and this time we were greeted with a glass of bubbly which was very nice. However sitting through 10-15 minutes of promotional information about the winery I’ve already booked an event with and am currently sitting in on left me with a very odd mixed feeling of annoyance, boredom and impatience. It felt like being sold on a time share while renting the actual time share. Drone videos of the ranch? Not even the winery itself or where the wine is manufactured but just the exterior ranch buildings & some deer running… If I wanted to sit through an advertising video of the winery, I could have simply visited the Instagram. It was all just a bit much and very uncomfortable way to start what was supposed to be a romantic evening. Now to the tasting itself, the wine selection was nice enough but the pairings? It was juvenile at best. Every single chocolate was a lindor truffle and the majority of the ones chosen were white chocolate which if you don’t know, is extremely sweet and far too sugary. In some instances the chocolate over powered the wine itself or did not really balance well at all. They even mentioned in the class as a little joke that they just googled what chocolate went well with what kind of wine… seriously? Not even going to play it off that the tasting was curated specifically off of knowledge & experience? What I loved about the cheese and wine class was the unique cheeses they picked and the little bits of interesting information that were given throughout. This chocolate class could have had far more variety - chili infused chocolate, dark chocolate, fruit filled truffles, French truffles, commercial candy bar chocolates, or even a mousse? The chocolate world is as vast as the wine world and it was a total miss on their part. The host was reading directly from the slide show & even had us clap like a class of 4th graders when she wanted to address the group. If it were not for the wonderfully friendly and fun couple we were seated with, the evening would’ve been a complete bust. — I booked a cheese & wine tasting for a date night with my husband & we absolutely had the best time! This is a family owned winery & the hospitality shown during our event was top notch. Our host Bianca did such a fabulous job setting up a beautiful table for the tasting - I tried to take as many photos as I could before wanting to dig into the feast. All together there were 5 pairings with generous pours and unique cheeses. She did an incredible job educating about the pairings without making the evening seem like a lecture but we still walked away feeling like we’ve learned something new. It’s a delicate balance and she guided the group with such passion and care. I’ve been to quite a few tasting events & this one definitely is right to the top of my favorites. The atmosphere of the room was perfectly cozy - I didn’t feel like it was a stuff as many people in as you fit kind of place - gave more of the visiting friend’s you’ve known forever kind of vibe. The event flowed well, wasn’t rushed at all, the host was open to all questions and opinions on the pairings. Definitely highly recommend for all date nights, friendly outings, girls night, and all things in between!

This tasting room is super cozy, and the staff treat you like family! We tried all different types of wine; rosé, sauvignon blanc, merlot, symphony, red blend, and my favorite the Reminisence (sparkling blanc de noirs)! The food was phenomenal, too. 😊😄🫶
Always a great time to mix and mingle in the community and others that come to visit. Love hearing all the laughter and genuine good time. Great way to determine what you like in wines and from who and feeling tye holiday spirit. As a matter of fact finiahed most of my chrostmas shopping from the locals. BOOM! Downtown Mckinney gets better every year. All sponsored are quality wines. I had 2 issues this year. First, there were more wine stops (24) than check boxes on the map (16) you are given. The only place that gave me a bit of a stink eye was Landons. Maybe I missed the Rule that you can only visit 16 or 24 stops. We simply did a counter clockwise rotation on stops around the square. This leads me to my 2nd issue.... Parking sucks, so get there before noon on this event. We'll done McKinney. Merry Christmas.

I came here Wednesday evening with a couple of friends and had such a great time! I don’t recall the lady’s name who initially waited on our table, but her & Elizabeth were so much fun and personable. They were very helpful with recommendations and just great service overall. The establishment has a very nice & quaint ambience. The other patrons were pleasant and it just made for a great experience. I opted for the “Trust Us” Wine Tasting Flights & received a customized selection of wines. I think this is great because you can really hone in on what you like or don’t like in a wine. The recommendations were good. I also paired it with a slice of cheesecake drizzled I’m caramel. It was absolutely delicious ! I learned from staff & patrons :) about the entertainment that comes here. I’m really excited my friend recommended this. I definitely recommend & would return for the experience.
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Lone Star Wine Cellars, and it was an absolute delight! My husband and I were on a mission to find exceptional wines, and our experience at this winery exceeded all expectations. From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the vibrant atmosphere. Live music filled the air, and the lively crowd created an infectious energy. The staff was incredibly attentive, providing prompt and friendly service throughout our visit. We opted for the wine tasting and were treated to a fantastic selection from California, Texas, and even New Zealand! Each sip was a journey of flavors, and we couldn't help but appreciate the craftsmanship behind every glass. Although we didn't have a chance to try their food, it's worth mentioning that Lone Star Wine Cellars offers a full menu with tempting options to complement the wines. It's a perfect choice for those seeking a complete dining experience. The location itself is conveniently situated in downtown McKinney, making it easily accessible. The address is 103 E Virginia St, McKinney, TX 75069. Overall, our time at Lone Star Wine Cellars was nothing short of exceptional. We eagerly look forward to our next visit, knowing that we'll be welcomed with great wine, live music, and warm hospitality. If you're a wine lover seeking a remarkable tasting experience, don't miss out on Lone Star Wine Cellars in McKinney! #WineLoversParadise #LiveMusicVibes
