My husband and I love the friendly and relaxed environment of Missouri wineries! Whether it be sitting under a tree at Noboleis Vineyards or by the fire at Hermannhof Winery, we receive wonderful service and great wines!”

Several years ago when my husband and I were the chase crew for a hot air balloon pilot in the New Haven Balloon Race, the pilot led us down a gravel road when he landed in one of Kuenzel Winery’s pasture. Now the vineyard is one of our favorites

Watching Missouri wines evolve for four decades has been head-spinning, but more’s the pleasure upon showing these wines to wine experts from other regions and countries. They’re shocked by the balance, the subtleties, the distinctive character now being coaxed from a variety of grapes. More than anything, people are wowed by our dry and off-dry wines.

Missouri definitely offers a wide variety of dry to sweet wines. The Norton wine stands out as one that is widely available across the state. As a person that enjoys a good steak, the quality of a Norton is a perfect pairing for bold and dry red wine lovers.

I love exploring MO wineries especially in the fall when the air is crisp and the leaves are changing and you can sit outside on a deck or patio and take in the aromas of the winery while sipping on my favorite wine. There are so many exciting wineries with their own distinct flavors to enjoy. I like getting wine flights so I can find my new favorite.

Each year my friends, self, and spouses spend a weekend in Hermann enjoying the local wineries and atmosphere. The trip is a blast composed of creating memories and sharing laughs. The first year one of the couples got engaged on the trip!

Spending time with friends while sharing our favorite Missouri wine is priceless. Truly the best wine is the wine we drink together.”

Vignoles is my go-to Missouri wine. It’s one of the most versatile varietals, vinified in a range of styles, from dry to sweet. The grape’s juicy, tropical aromas and pleasant acidity enhance the flavors of spicy dishes and briny seafood. Yet pairs perfectly with roasted chicken or a cheese platter.”
