What

Descend into the underground wine cave at Slate Theory Winery for Texas Wine Auction Foundation’s Barrel Auction — an intimate, purpose-driven afternoon where exceptional wine meets a powerful cause.

Hosted by the Texas Wine Auction Foundation, this exclusive event benefits the Fredericksburg ISD Education Foundation, helping fund a critical three-year grant to place Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselors in both the local middle school and high school. Your support directly impacts the well-being of Fredericksburg’s youth by fostering access to mental health resources and reducing stigma within the school system.

Guests will experience barrel tastings from leading Texas wineries and the opportunity to bid on rare and exclusive lots, all while connecting with winemakers and fellow philanthropists in one of the Hill Country’s most striking settings.

Ticket includes complimentary wine glass, sampling of over 25 Texas premium wineries, bites to fuel you along the way and access to exclusive wine lots.

The Fredericksburg Food & Wine Festival is a non-profit organization that celebrates, showcases and nurtures our region’s rich agricultural heritage, outstanding culinary experiences and award winning wineries. Through our programs and events, we support charitable organizations in the Texas Hill Country, ensuring prosperity and innovation within our community.
