Welcome to Whistling Duck Vineyards & Winery
A “UNIQUELY TEXAS” COUNTRY WINERY
We invite you to visit our quaint, Texas country winery and tasting room nestled at the edge of our 4 acre vineyard. We are located a little “off-the-beaten-path”, but once you arrive, we hope you’ll sit back, relax and enjoy the laid-back and fun atmosphere of our little piece of the Texas countryside.
Belly up to our tasting bar or our custom-made wine barrel tables and enjoy a glass of one of our handcrafted Texas wines. Or, relax in the country breeze on one of our covered “wine sippin’” porches. If the mood strikes you, grab one of our delicious cheese trays and make your own picnic under one of the many large oak trees dotting the property. If you get tired of sitting, amble down to the pond for a glimpse of some wildlife or wild flowers, or take a stroll through the vineyard to witness where your wine started. We want you to feel right at home here.
OUR VISION
Our vision for Whistling Duck Vineyards & Winery is the careful blending of nature, fine wine, friendly Texas hospitality, and a tranquil country setting where the most sophisticated wine drinkers and those who have never even tasted wine can come to sample our wines, relax, have fun, and feel like they’re part of our family.
Our slogan at Whistling Duck Vineyards & Winery is “Porch Sittin’, Wine Sippin’, Country Trippin’ – FUN!”

They played with just about everyone who was big in Country music at the time and racked up 13 Billboard chart singles as well.
Frank Martin Gilligan can be seen and heard all over the state of Texas and beyond these days. Frank's "Silver Dollar" CD his first solo effort, released in 2015 was very favorably received by independent radio. The title song "Silver Dollar" spent 4 weeks at #1 on the Roots Americana Chart and was rated #13 overall for the year! Aside from touring the U.S., Frank makes a yearly visIt to his ancestral homeland of Ireland.

Join us as we welcome back to our musical stage, the APRIL HALL TRIO! Making her way from Victoria, Texas to Austin, APRIL was inspired by the many different styles from country, blues, jazz, and the singer/songwriters that put their own mark on these Americana styles. She soon put these influences to use and began writing and performing in the Austin area. April released her first EP in 2008 of five acoustic songs produced by Tommy Detamore at Cherry Ridge Studio. After many years of performing in the central Texas area she went back in the studio with Tommy to help produce her first full-length album. The album titled “Nothing’s Perfect In Life” released in May of 2015 is a soulful country inspired collection of 14 songs with 11 written by April.
