Only downside was that the band playing was a bit loud, hide to kind of hide away. I can't wait to return when they are able to do tastings again, though - maybe at an off time when there isn't a band playing and less crowded. During pandemic time, they are keeping the indoors closed, having folks order at the door - wine by the bottle only plus the wine-a-ritas. We got a bottle of the blackberry and it was great.

The service could not have been any better. Tanya really really gave us a lot of education about their wines and about their beliefs and how to do business. We really appreciated that. The music wasn't live but it was perfect. They had a little bit of food in the market typical winery Fair like sausage salami cheese etc. But you can bring your own food in and they don't mind. If you have a beer drinker in the family they do have a good selection of beers they don't Brew but they have a good selection of canned beers. We're definitely going to be going back this is our winery of choice. We've been back in Missouri for a year and this is the best one we've been to. Their prices are absolutely phenomenal. And the bulk pricing is even better. Tasting is free so go find out for yourself. Have fun

We had a lovely afternoon at Chateau Sainte Genevieve. It was a new-to-us winery (they have been…read moreopen just shy of a year). Boy were we happy we stopped by! The grounds are lovely, with vineyards surrounding the modern buildings and wrap-around patio area. We were able to try all of their wines at no charge prior to buying our wine for the patio. The wine was excellent, mostly French-style dry whites. Some of the grapes are grown elsewhere, which as in California, as their vineyards are still maturing. They do produce all of their wines. The service was excellent, both friendly and knowledgeable. Other details: Plenty of on-site parking. It is a smoke-free facility. No pets allowed. You can bring your own food.

I've only ever been here in winter so I can't say much about the outdoor area but it looks like it'd be a great place to sit outside and have a drink. The staff is really wonderful. It's become a tradition to come here whenever I'm in town over the holidays and even when the place is busy the staff is very accommodating and attentive. I'm just also really impressed by the food. Definitely the best place I've been to in Southern MO.

Everyone talks about their garlic parm fries for a reason. Order them! We also ordered the crispy chicken sandwich with sesame cucumber salad and sriracha mayo, which was so good (we ordered the food to split and both agreed we should have gotten our own chx sandwich). The flatbread was also good, but the fries and chx sandwich were just so much better that the bread was left in their shadow. I can't comment much on the wine as we both ordered mimosas . The grounds were well maintained and the waitress what friendly. Will return.

At first glance the front exterior is very underwhelming. But, upon entering, the hospitality was so welcoming that I was instantly at ease. Watertower Winery offered us a $5 sampling of 6 wines that included a signature glass (these were perfect 2 oz pours & well worth sampling). We chose a Riesling and headed to the back deck. The deck is quaint and offered a pastoral view. A 60 degree day, sun shining, a nice little winery..made for a perfect day. We will definitely be back!!

I feel so bad that it is September and this is the first time that I made it down to Liberty…read moreCourtyard. Every time I go Michelle and Kathy have added something new. This place started out as a house that they bought at an auction to get away from the city and fish on the weekends. Poor Michelle and Kathy can't even tell you the last time they got to go fishing. This place evolved more out of necessity. Two sisters bought the place and slowly turned it into a tasting room. At first they only focused on Illinois wines, and they still only have Illinois wines. Next they added micro brews. Yesterday they had 8 different beers on tap, plus bottles of domestic beers. The food menu is limited, because they don't really have an industrial sized kitchen. They offer a cheese plate, which is very tasty. Yesterday I had the bruschetta, OMG delicious and bonus the tomatoes were grown in their own garden at the Courtyard. They have expanded the courtyard and added a room (which was originally an old barn) Next season they are going to start making their own wines. This place is nestled right on the Kaskaskia River. They are only open on the weekends Friday night through Sunday night. This time of the year, they have a fire pit going, and this is free of charge. The locals bring then wood. You will enter as a stranger but leave as a friend. This is must see place.

Appreciate the venue allowed us to bring our own cake without restrictions in place. Only concern is parking which worked out for all but maybe a sign on the venue instructing how guests can park so guests are not concerned about towing / ticketing. Until next time.
