Did wine tasting with the owner "Grower’s / Winemaker’s Seated Private Tasting" and what a treat. We learned so much about the wines, growing grapes in Texas and making wine. Even though we have been to a lot of vineyards in the USA and Europe this was a great learning experience and high recommend it.

My boyfriend and I visited Kalasi for the first time and it was amazing! We tried the Wine and chocolate pairings, which did not disappoint. Dana took care of us, she was attentive and very personable. We’ll be back soon! Thank you, Dana!

The wines at Kalasi are excellent, especially if you love reds. We came to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. Our favorite was the Re d'Italia, but the best part of the tasting was Laura! She was an amazing host and an incredible storyteller. I highly recommend coming here for a tasting and walking away with a bottle to not only get great wine but to also support an Indian woman owned viticulturist and seller. Nikhila honors so much of her family, culture, and heritage in her business and she deserves your business.

My financee and I visited Kalasi over the weekend and enjoyed every second of it. Our tasting guide Dana was very personable and knowledgeable. We had great conversation about all different things in life while learning so much about the wines. We really enjoyed majority of the wines we tried in the standard and premium wine tasting and picked up a bottle to take home with us. Highly recommend!

Phenomenally wine tasting experience. Our wine tasting supervisor Dana was incredibly knowledgeable, and passionate about the wine she was serving. This made for great conversation and made the wine tasting feel more intimate, which should be expected for a boutique winery in my opinion.On top of that, the wine was incredible - so much so that I became a member of the wine club which would be the first time ever out of several years of visiting wineries from the west coast to the south. My favorite by far was the Sagratino optically sorted variation (which is a neat concept)5/5 would recommend to anyone who enjoys wine from white to red!

For my girlfriend and I, this was our first tasting ever. Laura gave us the best service we could’ve asked for. Her excitement for our first time, made us even more excited. We will visit again!

My boyfriend surprised me with this wine tasting for our one year anniversary. A first time experience for both of us, and we have such an amazing experience! Laura was our hostess and she was full of stories and valuable knowledge! She made our first time wine tasting experience so fun and light and there was no judgement on any of our newbie questions! She really loves what she does and is such a sweet soul! We did the chocolate and wine pairing and loved it! Will definitely be going back! 🙂

Amazing wine tasting, one of the first I’ve been too where every wine was unique and rich in flavors. The service was beyond exceptional, full of great information about the vineyard and each wine! Highly recommend!

This turned into an unexpectedly wonderful part of my and my partner's trip to Fredericksburg. We'd planned to go hike Enchanted Rock and then grab lunch, plus, just for fun, do a wine tasting. After hiking a few hours, I felt grubby and a little foxed, but we decided to go anyways.I can't say I'm an expert on wine, but I do know what I like. In looking for places to visit, I stumbled across Kalasi Cellars and the tag on their website drew me in: "Where Tradition Meets Innovation with a Touch of India". Why wouldn't I give that a try?There's plenty of parking on site, and the tasting rooms are a short drive from the Old Downtown of Fredericksburg. I was a little hesitant going in because we were the only people there on a grayish Tuesday afternoon... might it feel awkward? How wrong I was!We were given a great greeting from Dana, who was working tastings that day, and sat and enjoyed and learned about Kalasi's wine. The different wines we enjoyed were all great, and Dana's expertise and accessibility helped us to understand not just what we were drinking but why it made sense. She was the best salesperson ever: because she was zero pressure, I absolutely wanted to buy some wine, and I did. It's good enough that when time permits, I think I'll join their membership program.My partner and I felt very welcome indeed - more like old friends than a customer, and I can't recommend this highly enough.

Love this winery. Paul led us through our first tasting and was amazing. We became members and will continue to visit as long as they are around

Our experience at Kalasi was nothing short of amazing. Paul was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and patient as we talked through the variety of tasting options. He answered all of our questions with ease; you can tell he truly loves the wines himself and enjoys helping others navigate their perfect Kalasi palate. We ultimately ended up joining their wine club and have been so pleased with our collection so far!

This was my first wine testing, so I didn’t know what to expect. Right away, Dana made us feel at home! We were celebrating my 35th birthday and this was definitely part of a memorable day. I learned so much and purchased an amazing bottle of Merlot. I would absolutely visit again.

Best wine tasting in Fredericksburg! The wine was great and so was the staff. Laura walked us through the tasting and was so knowledgeable. She really made it so enjoyable. I would definitely recommend a visit if you are in the area.

First visit to this winery and loved it. The wine was delicious (shoutout to the Teroldego!) and the staff was wonderful and so knowledgeable. We had the cheese and crackers with our tasting and it was great. Highly recommend stopping by and trying the wine!

Absolutely incredible winery and service from top to bottom! Dana went above and beyond in describing the wines and wine making in detail. Laura was so engaging when discussing some of the more rare wines we had questions on. As for the wines themselves, there was not one single wine that we didn’t like. Each wine seemed to be better than the one before and the flavor profiles on the wines were some of the best I’ve ever experienced from Texas grapes! I’m so excited to be a new member at this winery and cannot wait to come back!

My husband and I took delight in being introduced to Kalasi wines, with an outstanding tutorial given by Paul Garcia. He presented such an interesting history of Kalasi vineyards and their owners who indeed show intense passion towards the making of grapes into delicious wines. It was a wonderful visit and Paul was a great asset to our experience, thank you so much .

We just visited and had a lovely time! Dana was our wine guide for the time we were there. It wasn’t very busy so she took extra steps to make it even more personal which we loved and appreciated! We definitely recommend this as a stop along your Texas wine country excursion!!! Thank you all!!!

My favorite winery in the hill country! We went during the 4 year anniversary and were served a complimentary Indian inspired ice cream which was amazing. For the tasting, we opted for the wine and chocolate pairing. Totally recommend.

I was so excited to visit Kalasi Cellars as I've been a fan of wines made with grapes from Narra Vineyard for many, many years. But, I was even more excited to try the wines crafted by Nikhila Narra Davis for I knew they would be great. I was NOT disappointed!I also thoroughly enjoyed having Kalasi staff member, Laura, walk us through the Kalasi story and share her vast knowledge and history of the wines we tasted. Her joy was contagious and it made the experience all the better.My friend and I did the wine/chocolate pairing and it was so surprising to see how the two complimented each other. It was special to get the Indian spices in the chocolate and then discover how they worked so well with the pairings. We were pleasantly surprised how their white wine - Malvasia Bianca pair so beautifully with the milk chocolate/saffron. (By the way - their Tikka Masala Naan Pizza was super tasty!)Finally, I am glad to see another female winemaker, who is also a well-known grape grower, in the Texas Hill Country! So glad I went to Kalasi and I will be going back. If you are interested in serious Texas wine - you need to schedule a tasting and just try it for yourself.

We stopped here with Majesty Wine Tours. We hadn’t been to any cellars/tastings before so Kalasi really set the bar high. Right when we pulled in, Nikhila was outside working on her grapes. She called us over and let us try some straight from the bin. She talked to us so passionately about the whole process and answered any and all questions we had. Little did we know that being able to see the whole process was NOT part of the tour and she was actually the owner we were talking to. She made our experience unforgettable. We love how she carries on her family’s tradition and she is proud of the quality products they are making; down to the design on the bottles that was the same stitching on her wedding dress. Kalasi truly puts their heart and soul into their work.

Extremely knowledgeable staff and amazing wines. Wasn’t a fan of red wines at all before coming here, but I definitely am now. Thank you!
