    Italian salad
    Amanda M.

    Very peaceful location. Loved the patio spot under the tree for a shady afternoon. Lunch special with a big Italian salad and a sausage pizza was a good deal at $13. Pizza was saucyyy (which is my favorite kind of pizza) so I really enjoyed it. I opted for a glass of the dry rosé which was good for a glass but I wouldn't necessarily want a whole bottle. Would definitely revisit in the future!

    Great winery with beautiful scenery! My fiancé and I came here on a random Saturday and it was perfect. They have two outdoor patios and one had an area that looked like a play area for kids. We started with a wine tasting. We got 4 wines and it was perfect. We got to sample a few of their wines to pick which one we wanted a bottle of. The staff doing the tasting was attentive to us and were knowledgeable about the various wines and grapes. There were two bands there in the time we were at the winery. I'm a sucker for live bands so I loved it! Very chill winery vibes

    When we stay in Washington, Missouri, our winery hopping itinerary goes: (1) Montelle Winery, (2) Augusta Winery Tasting Room, (3) Noboleis Vineyards, (4) Balducci Vineyards and (5) Blumenhof Winery. With Balducci being our second to last stop of the day. What we love about Balducci is its spread out campus feel and dance floor! By this time in the day, you can imagine we are feeling good. And the vibes at Balducci do NOT disappoint. They usually have live music and by 3pm on a good weather day everyone is up and dancing. They have a more limited selection than some of the other wineries so it might make sense for your group to split a bottle or two (versus the tastings or glasses).

    I have been coming to Balducci Vineyards since they opened. This was my first visit since the Hoffman Group has taken over. We know the Balducci Family personally so I was a bit worried I would not like the changes. I have to say it is more corporate than before but still mostly feels the same. The Hoffman Properties do not allow any outside food or drinks on site. However, bottles of water are only $2.00 so that is helpful. There are now two areas for wine tastings which makes wine much more of a focus. There is a fee for wine tastings. The private party spaces have been upgraded and you can see groups gathered in many places across the grounds. The food is the same Balducci recipes, so we were happy to see that. We had a group of 14 and everyone had a wonderful time. Live music, good food, and a day outside made for happy memories. We will be back.

    Family Owned and Operated this little gem Provides an amazing experience and of course great wine! Being new to the winery scene they were very helpful in showing and sampling to find just what we wanted! The food was a pleasant surprise. The spinach artichoke dip was fantastic! The Pizzas were both fresh and yummy! For us the meatlovers was definitely the favorit

    Sounds like Balducci had a bit of a face-lift recently. I love it. I don't know if this is normal for them, but they did have a tasting area, then you had to walk to a completely different building to purchase. The poor tasting people probably have to say that 100 times a day, because it's a little odd. Aside from that, the bathrooms were a super fancy trailer, also much cleaner than expected. They had live music in one of the buildings and SO much seating! They had 2 different patios and 2 different buildings of places to sit. Everyone we encountered was phenomenal my favorites were the cashiers though. The wine is great. But the wine slushie is where it's at! You can't not try it!

    Guys you have 2-3 weeks to get over here and enjoy the fall colors at this winery. The staff is really laid back, willing to answer questions and tell you all about their local winery and the delicious product they create. They were out of a couple of their own wines at the moment but recommended a delicious blend from their sister winery. The vibe was very lively this Saturday we visited with music and a live band. If you feel like playing corn hole or dancing, they can keep you busy. Or you can sit inside out of the elements and enjoy your time.

    We were able to order inside and get a bottle of wine. Waited in our vehicle for the order to be ready. Due to the restrictions and the rain we opted to sit in the car and enjoy the view while having our pizza and wine. They had covered outdoor seating available, but not allowing any inside dining at the moment. I was happy to see the staff was gloved and masked throughout our visit.

    If you need a little weekend getaway or just a little day trip, this vineyard is a great place to stop by. Great deep dish pizza with homemade crust and tomato sauce. And the wine is delicious. Plus they have live music!

    The food wasn't anything to right home about. The live band tried... it was just two old men that thought they could sing. The wine was good. They have a frozen wine that was really good. It was a rainy day. We will try it again this summer.

    Great little day trip. The winery was refreshing; close enough to feel like home yet far enough for picturesque green pastures & tranquility. Balducci Vineyards offered plenty of seating options: plastic round tables & chairs, picnic benches, industrial fan equipped tents, A/C flowing interior or your own blanket to toss over a shaded grassy area. There was free wine tasting (Port tasting $2). I actually bought a bottle of the Port it was so delicious. If you're hungry their food options are pretty delectable as well, specifically the pizza. Buffalo wings, buffalo ravioli & fried shrimp are also tasty. Live music was decent; nothing encore worthy but OK. The staff was nice, personable and welcoming. Balducci branded wine glasses are available for $3 inside along with cigars, snacks, and other souvenirs. There are 2 spacious and clean indoor restrooms located around the side of the building. I didn't peak inside but 3 Port-A-Potties were lined up for the impatient. This was a great winery experience and I'm sure to return.

I had the grilled chicken sandwich and house salad with vinaigrette house dressing. She had the French dip and same salad. Chicken sandwich was charbroiled to perfection and topped with the perfect bacon and garnishes. I enjoyed every bite. Her French dip looked to be the perfect medium rare and came on a fresh French bread. My buddy and his wife both ordered the pork chops. 2 chops smothered in peppers, onions and the most rich gravy that could be a meal in itself. I had the bread pudding for dessert which was amazing....i can't believe I ate the whole thing!! Greta place, great service!!

Hmm, I found it interesting. it reminded me of air popped spinach that was very light and crunchy without a lot of taste. I believe I burned calories of the spinach just by chewing it! I encourage people to try it, just because it is so different. It makes a beautiful presentation. The steak was pretty good and the vegetable medley was delicious along with the salad. The next time I go, I will order the vegetables and the salad and try the toasted raviolis as an appetizer. The drive to Hawthorne Inn is beautiful from Eureka. Drive slowly and enjoy the serenity of the farms and beautiful homes along the way.

Exactly the experience I was looking for on a pretty fall day.
