Hilmy Cellars

Open: Year Round

The story of Hilmy Cellars starts with Erik Hilmy and his curiosity for fermenting anything that would.  As a youngster reared in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas - Mission, TX, to be exact -, Erik would deplete the home of all fruit in the name of fermentation, much to his parents suprise.  Through the years, Erik made the supply of wine needed for family and friends while he pursued a number of careers, none of which could hold his interest the way winemaking could.    

Today, he makes wine on a larger scale to share with the world.  And, together with his wife, Neldie, has worked to bring the Hilmy Wine brand to life.
