From the listing
Blue Ostrich Winery and Vineyard is family owned and operated in the northwest portion of Cooke County. We opened our winery to the public in September 2011; however, for many years our facility was one of the foremost ostrich breeding and ranching facilities in the southwest. The structure that houses our winery, tasting room, and corporate offices was once filled with ostrich eggs, chicks, and fledglings. The acreage to the west that nurtures our Viognier and Cabernet grapevines was the same hillside where hundreds of 7 foot tall ostrich roamed during the 1990's.As our ostrich ranching adventure drew to a close and we relinquished our herd, the future of the remaining birds was uncertain... until we needed a name for our winery and vineyard. Today our feathered friends not only adorn the Blue Ostrich label, they also function as our official winery mascots.Come and visit Blue Ostrich Winery and Vineyard to enjoy award winning wines in our tasting room, or in our indoor/outdoor pavilion overlooking the bucolic pastureland and rolling hills of the Red River Valley.Reservations are highly recommended.
