Texas Winery Tops National Wine List | San Antonio News

Duchman Family Winery in Driftwood, Texas, just claimed the 3 spot for best wine tasting room in the nation—thanks to USA TODAY’s 2026 10Best Awards. Founded in 2004 by Stan and Lisa Duchman, this Hill Country gem uses only Texas-grown grapes, especially Italian varietals, proving Texas wine can compete with the world’s best. With a top-ten finish back in 2021 and wines scoring 90+ at global competitions like Decanter, Duchman isn’t just serving great wine—they’re building a destination where guests gather, linger, and celebrate. And with the Texas Hill Country ranking 3 as a wine region overall, it’s clear: the Lone Star State is officially on the global wine map.
