The Siboney Experience – Wine, Culinary, and Special Events

Welcome to new guests and familiar faces! Spring has returned to the Hill Country, with all its splendor and promise. We thought we would take a moment to share our Event Calendar to help you plan your next visit. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram, and check our Event and Visit pages on this website for the latest tickets and availability of new experiences at Siboney!

Siboney wine experiences include our seated, story-filled classic tasting of Barbara Lecuona’s line-up of Texas wine; our guided premium tour-and-tasting into the vineyard & barrel cellar, complete with our famous Culinary Board; and sunset bottle service on Thursday Twilight. You can book any of these on the Home or Visit Page on the main website.

Our pairing menu includes our house-cut Culinary Board (offered daily); authentic Cuban Sandwiches (pressed to order every Thursday evening, Friday and Monday lunch); and oven-baked Empanadas (Saturday and occasionally Sunday). Each of these bring their own originality to the wine pairing experience.

And, we make time for special events and experiences, including truly special live music, monthly Pig Roasts with Cuban dominos (jump to May and June for tickets), Dinner-and-a-show concerts, Cigar appreciation, and holiday events like our Mother’s Day Brunch. And on June 1, absolutely do not miss the 3rd edition of the Siboney International Car Show and Fajita Grill. We have save-the-date and Ticketed links on our Events page.

We can’t honestly say “which is the best” of these experiences. We do believe the best way to get to know one another is through the Classic Tasting. But one thing is certain — we love putting this energetic calendar forward, and sincerely enjoy the energy you bring to Siboney. And importantly, the guests, families and friends you introduce to us. Nothing can top that.

Event reservations and tickets are posted on our updated Website www.SiboneyCellars.com Bookmark the site, and stay posted to our Event page and social media flows here and on Instagram.

As we continue the work in the vineyard and across the winery, we take this moment to thank you for your support and patronage… not only of Siboney, but of all wineries that are pushing forward with an authentic Texas Wine Experience. That’s what you seek, and that’s what we love to do. Just You Wait!

Out of this world.  #artemis #nasa
Just got this new gadget. It’s called a “radio”. Once you plug it in, you have to master a rotary dial to “tune in” stations already broadcasting content. It’s easy don’t worry. Just rotate the dial and the needle points to different numbers on two different sources. They call those AM and FM so you do have that as a learning curve. 

Background:  Turns out there are “radio waves” all around us and this Victrola has a little wire coming out the back that can magically intercept them and direct the passing signal to speakers.  It When you find something interesting it has another feature — you can make it louder by turning a different rotary switch. I just got up from my chair and tried it, in true FAFO spirit. Works great!

This is just fantastic and I felt compelled to bring it to your attention. 

No streaming required. No WiFi or subscriptions needed. No service outages from local internet providers. 

Amazing. Hope it catches on. 

Oh there’s also something called a “Bluetooth” switch that somehow manages to receive and play music you might have on your phone. 

Will wonders ever cease. 

Go Victrola!!
Our Premium Brand for this Release #11:  Micallef Cigars - Esteli, Nicaragua

We are thrilled to announce the return of Micallef Cigars to Siboney for our Premium feature.  The Micallef Cigar company is, perhaps, new to many.  We featured one Micallef in August 2024, and it was so highly regarded we knew we would have them back for the full featured premium spotlight in a future release.  With the introduction of their new “color” series, the timing is perfect for the return and presentation of this fantastic boutique cigar producer. ��The founder, Mr. Al Micallef of Weatherford Texas, has entrepreneurial DNA in his roots.  In 2016, as an avid Cigar Lover, he took the next step and partnered with a venerable family in the tobacco business dating back to 1934 in Cuba.  The Gomez-Sanchez family has roots in Pinar del Rio.  With a history including Partagas and H. Upmann, and a fully operational factory in Esteli, Nicaragua, the family heritage of growing tobacco, hand-crafting vitolas, and creating an authentic brand are all essential attributes of Micallef Cigars. 

We have a fantastic day on tap.

This is Cigar Club Release #11. The club only Siboney could create.
First steps of Spring are emerging at @siboneycellars!  Texas Mountain Laurel and Redbud lead the way, and the overseed grass - dormant for the winter - was finally activated by recent rains. 

Won’t be long for the vineyard to emerge.  Just you wait!
Wine brought us everything we love.  And nothing we don’t. #siboney #WineIsLove
Cigar Talk:
We get questions about Cuba. Whats happening in Cuba.  When can we travel to Cuba. When can we organize a trip to Cuba…. 

We are not going to Cuba.  You are not going to Cuba.  Not for a while yet… 

Update: “In late January, the Financial Times reported that Cuba had less than a single month’s worth of oil in reserve. Already, the country’s energy stockpiles appear to be dwindling. Havana informed international air carriers this week, for example, that it will no longer be able to refuel commercial jets on Cuban tarmacs.”

Whatever is happening is going to take time. Whether the Cuban government can twist out of this submission hold, or tap out, remains to be seen.  They never have tapped out in 66 years. 

Even though humanitarian aid continues, be certain that the situation is quite seriously deteriorating.  Obviously it has already been, and will continue to be very hard on the Cuban people.  A very severe test. They are marching in Havana.  The prospect of Freedom brings forth courage like nothing else.  Abrazos to all
