  This is the best winery in the region perhaps the state. Music every other sunday not sure about the winter months...the wine is top notch, fragrant, well crafted..the views are impeccable a.. whenever we have guest from out of state a visit to Rio Grande is a must. Gordon is simply the best!

  We visited on a weekend and enjoyed a relaxed, friendly and informative wine tasting with the owner. Great location, very nice space and the wine is good. The owner has a lot of knowledge to share about wine in a fun atmosphere. We'll definitely be coming back.

  Amazing scenery - perfect way to relax and enjoy an evening and a glass of vine!Wine selection was smaller than I prefer, but I enjoyed a glass out on the back patio with live music and a fantastic view of the mountains!

  rio grande winery is a wonderful venue for many activities. gordon steel will host weddings, reunions, or about any kind of gathering you might imagine. the covered gallery in back has a beautiful view of the organ mountains, and live music is provided a couple of weekends out of the month. gordon has a life-long interest in wine making, inherited from his father, and studied the art in europe. it is very evident in his product. my wife and I are fortunate to live in the area, so we're able to go any time. for someone visiting las cruces and mesilla for a weekend, this is a "must see", especially if you enjoy a glass of wine. if you're into history, the walls of the tasting room are lined with photos of early day wine making in the mesilla valley, as well as other old photos of the area. it's a beautiful location, excellent product, and genial host.

  In March, we drove from El Paso to Mesilla, and decided to stop and do the wine testing at the Rio-Grande Winery. My wife and I had a great time there. Conversation with an owner was a blast. Great wines, good selection. Very clean facility. Perfect.

  This was one of our last tastings of the day and well worth the wait. The owner took the time to educate us on the vineyard and his wine. He was quite knowledgeable and entertaining. Only problem is he doesn't ship to Louisiana. His wine is excellent as well. I'd stop again just to visit with the owner and learn some more, and of course, drink his wine.

  We had spent the early afternoon in the Mesilla village and had made our way down Hwy 28, in search of Pecan farms. But when we stumble upon a vineyard, we try to always go in for a tasting. Rio Grande is situated at the base of the mountains and the view from the tasting room really is spectacular. The price of a tasting is, in my opinion, very reasonable and the grapes are all locally grown. It is a true family affair. We brought 3 bottles home with us, but should have brought more as they did not last very long. If you are in the Mesilla village and enjoy wine, make sure to venture down the hwy just a bit. The staff is very friendly and the wine is simply amazing!

  Having moved to El Paso, TX, trying to explore Day Trip options...and this is wonderful! Enjoy mid morning in Old Mesilla, NM, then down the road is this winery. The owner is laid-back and very knowledgeable. Fun Fact, did you know New Mexico had wineries 140 years BEFORE California? During the wine tasing learned a lot, and the wines are good quality (I was surprised).If you're looking for food, this isn't the place. They have cheese and sausage, but that's it. Focus on the wine, then head back to Old Mesilla for food.I will be back!
