July 1, 2025 (Stonewall, TX) — Beloved Texas Hill Country winery Kuhlman Estate has completed a highly anticipated renovation, just in time for summer. Nestled along the famed Wine Road 290 between Fredericksburg and Johnson City, the boutique winery now features refreshed indoor and outdoor spaces that elevate the guest experience while honoring the estate’s beautiful vineyards and gardens.
The renovations include a stunning new tasting room, open to all guests, featuring a modern farmhouse aesthetic and enhanced panoramic views of the vineyard. For Heath Family Brand Club Members, the estate now offers exclusive access to expansive shaded patios outfitted with fans, firepits, and ample seating. The surrounding grounds have been thoughtfully updated with sustainable landscaping, including vibrant Autumn Blaze Maples and fragrant roses, peaceful fountains, and lush garden areas that invite relaxation. A new entryway, widened driveway, and expanded parking area now provide a seamless and welcoming arrival experience for all visitors.
“Kuhlman Estate is a place that beckons guests to slow down and stay a while,” said Brian Heath, CEO and owner of Heath Family Brands, which acquired the property in 2024. “With these renovations, we’ve created even more inviting spaces to enjoy great wine, good company, and the natural beauty of the Hill Country.”
The final phase of renovation will include an expansion of Kuhlman’s charming Bistro, allowing for a broader food menu and more efficient service. The refreshed interior will feature a chic, modern farmhouse design and an exciting American bistro menu for members of any Heath Family Brands property. K Bistro is expected to open in September 2025.
Kuhlman Estate remains open during renovations, welcoming guests daily for tastings. For more information or to book a tasting, visit www.kuhlmanestate.com.
