Missouri is home to so many lovely wineries and vineyards that it’s sometimes hard to choose where to spend the day on a wine weekend. However, we want to tell you about a special spot that is a restaurant, shop, and winery all in one! This all-in-one attraction was once an old farm, but now it’s a must-visit for all Missourians. Check it out this weekend!
Sitting high on the hill in Missouri Wine Country is Defiance Ridge Vineyards. Breathtaking views of the Missouri River valley can be seen from the terrace of this historic farmhouse. This vineyard has so much to offer, you may never want to leave.
Come out and enjoy the sun shine while you snack and sip wine. Their menu features many shareable items and snacks to go with their locally grown and produced wines.
Bring your sweetheart for a romantic dinner. You know you're in for great food and great wines. They also serve craft beers and cocktails, so even if you don't enjoy wine you can enjoy a trip to Defiance Ridge.
This amazing vineyard is one-of-a-kind. They're open daily at 11 a.m. and close at 5 p.m. everyday except Thursday. On Thursdays you can drink and dine until 9 p.m.
