Deming Winery Tour

December 22, 2023 Editorial Team

Available Every Sunday

Each Sunday we host winery tours at our winery facility in Deming! No reservations will be necessary, you can arrive at our Deming tasting room and request a winery tour with one of our Tasting Room Associates between 1:00 – 3:00 PM.

A Guided Tour Experience

Learn about our family history and an overview of our winemaking as you explore our winery facility, including our wine cellars, bottling line, warehouse, new underground oak barrel aging cellar, and more! You’ll see what a 620,000-gallon capacity looks like up close as you explore our many stainless steel tanks and oak barrels.

Tasting is Believing

After your tour, enjoy a wine flight of your choice in our tasting room. Explore the variety of wines we offer while discovering a new favorite to suit your preferences. Our tasting room staff will help guide you based on your existing preferences. There’s something for everyone, whether it’s sweet, dry, light, bold, modern, or traditional. Our French heritage and traditional winemaking techniques meet modern American flavor profiles and hand-crafted limited releases. Mix that in with the unique terroir of our family-owned New Mexico vineyard and our expertise growing here for the past 40 years. The result is some of the finest wines offered in the Southwest, rivaling some well-known growing regions.

We hope to see you at D.H. Lescombes Winery & Tasting Room in Deming on Sunday!

*Interested in our upgraded, full-day Vineyard & Winery Tour? These tours are a full-day experience and available both regular season and harvest season. A guided tour through our vineyard about 45 miles west of Deming, our winery facility, VIP barrel tasting, and more! Generally scheduled twice per month (regular season starts in spring) and three or four times per month for our harvest season (July – September), these sell out quickly and are very limited, so keep an eye on tickets as they become available.

About the Artist, Brent Cooper

I was born and raised in Mobile, Alabama. I am the 6th son of 7 boys and a graduate of Eastern New Mexico University. I work in education and have been painting since the age of 13. I love the weather here in New Mexico. When it comes to the state question of “red or green,” I’m a Christmas guy. I’m a big fan of high school sports and I love to teach kids basketball skills. In my free time, I love to visit art galleries to appreciate the work of others.
