A winery near San Antonio—without the road trip
A working Texas vineyard, scratch-made Italian kitchen, and live music on the north side of San Antonio.
The Hill Country experience, closer to home
Make the vineyard part of your week
Most wine-country plans begin with a long drive toward Fredericksburg. In Contrada offers a different kind of visit: wine, an Italian kitchen, and music among the vines at 27490 Smithson Valley Road in San Antonio.
The name In Contrada means “in your neighborhood.” For guests coming from Stone Oak, Bulverde, Spring Branch, and San Antonio's north side, that means a vineyard can be an afternoon tasting, a Thursday dinner, or a Friday night out—not only a once-a-year excursion.
