Idalou Harvest Co.
Texas High Plains wines from locally grown grapes and orchard-grown apple ciders in Idalou, Texas
Best known for: Texas High Plains wines and orchard-grown apple ciders
Idalou Harvest Co. in Idalou, Texas, brings wine, orchard cider, and a local produce market together on East Highway 62. Its wines come from its own locally grown grapes in the Texas High Plains, while its ciders start with apples grown at the Idalou orchard. That connection to the surrounding farms is the reason to stop: wine shares space with fresh produce and goods from local growers and makers rather than standing apart from them.
The wine selection ranges from full-bodied, dark-fruited reds to dry, light-bodied styles and aromatic whites. A $15 wine flight offers four two-ounce pours, with bottles priced from $30 to $50. Cider gets equal attention, with apple, mulberry, peach, and a dry, hopped version that offers an alternative for IPA drinkers. A $15 cider flight provides four four-ounce pours; growlers and refills are also available.
Weekend lunch gives the visit a practical anchor. Service runs Friday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., with flatbread pizza on Friday and Saturday and beef enchiladas with beans and rice on Sunday. Those meals include tea and dessert of the day.
