A Working Vineyard Pours Its Summer Collection This Weekend
While much of Celina’s late-June attention lands on Old Celina Park, there is a quieter, sharper way to spend that same weekend on the north side of town. Eden Hill Estate is running its Summer Wine Club tasting on both Saturday, June 27, and Sunday, June 28, from 2 to 5 p.m. at 4910 Eden Hill Lane — a 10-acre estate that produces estate-grown wine in a city better known right now for rooftops and retail permits.
The format is straightforward: $15 gets you eight pours drawn from the winery’s summer collection, plus a charcuterie board and tapas served alongside. That is a deliberate sit-down experience, not a quick sample-and-move-on setup, which makes it a practical option for anyone who wants a low-key afternoon that does not require driving to Grapevine or Fredericksburg.
What the Estate Offers Beyond the Tasting
The Summer Wine Club weekend does not exist in isolation. Eden Hill’s tasting room and vineyard tours run Thursday through Sunday, 1 to 6 p.m., on a walk-in basis — no reservation required. Visitors can tour the Tempranillo vineyard, go behind the scenes at the winery itself, and spend time on the property without committing to a ticketed event. The tasting this weekend is the structured, ticketed layer on top of that standing schedule.
Tempranillo is the estate’s signature planting, a Spanish red grape variety that performs well in the clay-heavy soils common to Collin County. Whether those specific vines show up among the eight summer pours has not been confirmed in the event listing, but the vineyard tour gives context to whatever ends up in the glass.
Logistics for the Weekend
The $15 price point covers the full tasting flight, the charcuterie board, and the tapas — there is no separate food charge listed. The event runs both days at the same time, 2 to 5 p.m., so residents who cannot make Saturday have a same-weekend second option on Sunday.
4910 Eden Hill Lane sits outside the downtown core, so plan to drive rather than walk from the Square. The property is accessible Thursday through Sunday during normal tasting room hours, and the Summer Wine Club tasting fits within that same window on both June 27 and June 28.
Why It Fits the Moment
Celina’s civic and commercial growth tends to dominate the conversation — the downtown library under construction, the Preston Road corridor filling in, the development trackers logging new permits weekly. Eden Hill represents a different kind of land use: agricultural, slow-moving, and built around a product that takes years to develop. A $15 tasting on a Saturday afternoon is one of the more affordable ways for a longtime or newly arrived Celina resident to spend time on a working farm without leaving city limits.
For residents who find June 27 already claimed by Splash and Blast at Old Celina Park, Sunday the 28th offers the same lineup at the same price with considerably less foot traffic.
