A new label created here at Becker Vineyards dedicated to the artistic expression of our masterful winemaker Jon Leahy! This masterpiece takes in consideration the passion that the Becker Family has with the expression of French wines, in particular the Bordeaux region of which this wine emulates.

Great vineyards - the best wines we tasted in Texas! I wouldn't think you could say these were from Texas in a blind tasting. Really good oaky whites and reds!

Daniel F.

Becker’s is one of the top three wineries in Texas. Premium excellent Texas wines at a fair price. Events at the winery near Fredericksburg are not to be missed!

Love visiting Becker. This is TEXAS wine! Even if they hadn't been served multiple times at the White House or won multiple double gold medals at the San Francisco International wine competition, I would still enjoy the wine because it is fabulous!
