As the name says, it's just a small A-Frame that serves local wines and charcuterie plates. We chose our glass of wines and a charcuterie plate to share, found a table, and enjoyed the views. There were lots of other couples, groups of friends, and even parties - I think I saw a birthday party or a bridal shower! Many groups got bottles to share. And the views were incredible. Plenty of parking, so no worries there. And the staff was patient, kind and helpful in selecting your wine. It's been awhile since we were there so I don't remember which wine I had but I remember we liked both of the glasses we got.

However you're in the middle of Missouri where grapes don't generate like traditional regions, and palettes are different. So if you're familiar with wineries and good wine this will be quaint but not your place. This is more of an event space with wine as an afterthought as evidenced by the gaggle of sororities and moms funneling in all day. Frankly, I was appalled at the event I attended for my daughters sorority. Everyone bought a $25 bottle of sweet or semi-sweet wine (that's this wineries specialty), dropped in a straw, and suckled their sippy cups. Their sweet wines are like wine coolers - and what college student doesn't like those? That should give context to the quality of wine and positioning of this space). Their traditional varietals all have sweet or fruit forward notes - Cabs are more like Pinots but lacking the depth and notes of a true spicy, bold cab. Past this, parking is like a festival, down a dirt road about a quarter mile walk from the front door. While I wouldn't return, it's a great place for an event and provides something unique to the area. And obviously the Greek system utilizes as a more sophisticated approach to the bars in Columbia.

We ordered our dishes and they began coming out inna staggered fashion. This was articulated by the server to make sure the meals were being delivered as quickly as possible. Several of the dishes came out cold. One asked to be reheated, others just verbally acknowledged the food was cold. I ordered a ribeye steak, medium rare and a backed potato. It arrived less than a quarter of an inch thick and I could not identify the cut. This was NOT a ribeye. Go for the view ....and maybe the social atmosphere. Eat first or make a reservation somewhere else.

These people create wine from scratch they lovingly processed wine and bottled their own wine. This is not a rebottled facility. This facility is amazing from the ground up and the wine had that old-school flavor like I was craving. When the ownership asked what they could do to make themselves different and I said absolutely nothing. The winner is exactly what it should be perfect in every way. There's nothing you can do to improve perfection I left with my extra bottles of wine and I hope the ownership uses this review to let others know what an amazing place is and how individual they are in being self sustaining in what they are doing.

It makes the whole process come together. They also have live music on some weekends and are available as a rental space. My mother is from Marceline, MO (another small town on Hwy 36).
