After nearly two decades in wine, Missick Cellars found its Texas home in Boerne in 2024. Our journey took us from France to California, then to New York’s Finger Lakes, and finally to the rugged Texas Hill Country—a path of pioneers seeking new frontiers.
In 2011, we purchased a Finger Lakes winery, transforming it into a beacon of excellence.
By 2020, we rebranded it as Missick Cellars, a family legacy. As Chris wrote to our wine club, “What we built was no longerwhat we bought. We earned a Wine & Spirits Magazine ‘Top 100 Wines’ honor, launched a stellar sparkling wine program, revived Chenin Blanc in the Finger Lakes after a trial planting 40 years ago, and elevated wine education.”
In 2023, inspired by Texas’s bold spirit, we moved to Boerne. Here, we grow food, tend chickens and bees, and craft authentic Texas wines on our homestead. Looking ahead, we plan to plant an estate vineyard for sparkling wines, continuing our legacy of innovation. Visit our Boerne tasting room to sip our story.

OUR PHILOSOPHY...
Family / Community / Texas
We make wines that are meant to enrich the meals and the life that we share with family and friends.
​
We are dedicated to supporting our Texas farmers. Wine should always be about place, and have a connection to the land, communities, and culture where it is grown. We share wines from the Finger Lakes because it is an important part of our legacy, but because we are Texans, we endeavor to grow, make, and share Texas wine.
