Sundays in Fort Worth: Wine-derful or Wine-drought?
Ah, Fort Worth, the land of rodeos, ranchers, and... apparently, tricky Sunday wine laws? If you're a Texan oenophile (fancy word for wine lover), you might've stumbled upon this question: can you snag a bottle of vino on the Sabbath? Buckle up, because we're about to uncork the truth (and maybe share a cheese pairing suggestion along the way).

The Great Grape Debate: Sundays and Wine in Fort Worth
The answer, my friend, depends on where you shop. Here's the lowdown:
Grocery Stores and Convenience Stores: Hallelujah! As of 2021, you can snag a bottle of Merlot or Chardonnay at your friendly neighborhood grocer between 10 am and midnight on Sundays. Now that's something to celebrate (responsibly, of course).
Liquor Stores: Hold your horses (or should we say, your broncos?). Texas law dictates that liquor stores gotta stay closed on Sundays, along with Thanksgiving and some other holidays. So no firewater fix on those days, folks. Stock up on Saturday or plan a "Monday Merlot" night instead.
But wait, there's more! Texas alcohol laws can be a bit of a labyrinth, so here's a handy cheat sheet:
- Weekdays (Monday-Friday): Grocery and convenience stores can sell beer and wine from 7 am to midnight. Liquor stores are open from 10 am to 9 pm.
- Saturdays: Same hours for grocery and convenience stores (7 am to 1 am), but liquor stores get an extra hour of operation, closing at 9 pm.
Important Note: Always check ID, even if you look like Methuselah himself (the world's oldest man according to legend, and probably a huge wine fan).
QuickTip: Ask yourself what the author is trying to say.
Pro Tip: Planning a Sunday picnic? Grab your wine from the grocery store in the morning, then head to one of Fort Worth's beautiful parks for a relaxing afternoon. Just remember to designate a driver (or use a ride-sharing service) – safety first!
