Sandy Road Vineyards is the realization of a lifelong dream on the Dixon Ranch, by Lonnie J. Dixon who started farming the land in 1924 and a century later passed it down to his great granddaughters, two sisters Adrienne and Kristina. The land gave us our roots, and a shared love of wine brought the Sivadon and Chagoly families together to plant vines and begin a new chapter here. Our intention was simple: farm carefully, make wines of character, and build something worth passing on.

A century of coming home
Family land, carried forward
Kristina and Adrienne grew up traveling Sandy Road to visit their grandmother on the farm. The wild land that once held cows and childhood adventures now carries 22 acres of vines, along with a commitment to pass this place forward stronger than we found it.
Sandy Road is named for the quiet road that has always led the family home.
Vigneron and winemaker
A friendship became a craft
Reagan Sivadon entered the cellar through a lifelong friendship with Ron Yates and learned the work from the ground up at Spicewood Vineyards. At Sandy Road, that experience closes the loop: he farms the vines, makes the wines, and shares them at the same family table.
The windmill
The first sign of coming home.
For Adrienne and Kristina, the windmill was always the first thing they saw when they arrived at the ranch to visit their grandparents. It meant they were home, surrounded by family and ready to share the kind of time together that becomes a lifelong memory.
When it came time to choose a symbol for Sandy Road, the windmill was the natural choice. We made it our logo because this winery is an extension of our family and this land. Every time you visit the estate or open one of our wines, we hope we are sharing a small piece of our family with yours and helping create new memories together.
“For us, Sandy Road is about coming home and passing a piece of this special land on to the next generation.”

Family owned · Family run
Small enough to pay attention. Ambitious enough to change minds.
We want Sandy Road to stand for more than our own label. Every bottle and every visit should deepen confidence in Texas wine. Small production lets the family put attention ahead of scale, make honest wines from this place, and welcome guests into the story without pretense.
