The Fourth of July, AKA Independence Day, holiday is right around the corner, and we’ve got some great ideas for how you can add award-winning Missouri wines to your celebration. 

1. Go to a winery – This is maybe the simplest way. There are 130+ wineries in the “Show Me” State and many will host special events throughout the holiday weekend. Visit your favorite local winery or discover a new one. 
2. Host a 4th of July soiree like a pro – We’ve made a survival guide to help you host the best Independence Day get-together your friends and family have ever seen. 
3. Become the true grill master – To many grilling is and art-form. Take your grill skills to the next level by pairing your charbroiled favorites with the perfect local wine. The MO Wine Grill-out Guide is all you need to make the best matches. 
4. Whip up a batch of sangria – Sangria is fruity, delicious, and best of all… completely customizable. Whether you follow a recipe like this one for Red, White and Blue Sangria, or build your own, consider making a double batch. Everyone loves sangria! 

Happy Independence Day from Missouri Wines. Cheers!
