Missouri’s Newest Wine Trail Hosts First Event

The Mississippi River Hills Wine Trail, has its first event this weekend. The food and wine pairing celebration, ‘A Taste of the Holidays,” is taking place from 12 to 5 p.m. today and Sunday.

The six wineries hosting the occasion form the state’s newest wine trail, located in the south-east corner of the state. One of the wineries, Apple Creek Vineyard & Winery, in Friedheim, North Cape County, is opening to the public for tastings for the first time.

The Missouri Wine and Grape Board announced the formation of the trail in its November newsletter. Missouri now has eight wine trails. For more information on the event and the new trail click here.
