In the heart of Missouri Wine Country ...
Just 20 miles from Chesterfield
Missouri !
As you drive down scenic
Highway 94 in St. Charles County, you'll begin a trip on one of Missouri's greatest
treasures,
The Weinstrasse, (German for "road to the
wineries").
The first stop along the way will be 'Sugar Creek Winery' , just outside the town of Defiance. Ken and Becky Miller have
created a unique wine tasting experience with beautiful views of the Missouri
River Bottom area.
After your stop there, continue to drive on and the flat areas give way to
increasing elevations along the bluffs.
Next stop will be 'Montelle Winery'
with unparalleled views of the Missouri River Valley. Wonderful patios and
picnic benches invite you to linger and sip on one of Montelles' award winning
wines. Augusta is just a bit further down the road.
Check into Augusta Lindenhof Bed and Breakfast before you begin exploring the
town. Augusta has two additional wineries within walking distance.
The well-known 'Mount
Pleasant Winery" with fabulous views of the river bottom
valley is very popular. You will find a huge tasting room, a gourmet
cheese shop, and plenty of picnic areas.
'Augusta
Winery' is just down the
street from our bed and breakfast. Small in size but great in wine
producing, Augusta Winery has won many prestigious medals. It is a must for the
wine connoisseur.

heart of Missouri wine country. All through the year

Balducci's Winery and Vineyards is a few miles down
Highway 94 and is the newest winery in the area. Set back in a valley,
they offer great wines as well as pizza, pasta and salads from their well-known
St. Louis restaurants.
Blumenhof Winery waits 4 more
miles up ahead to round out your visit to the Weinstrasse. Very German in
style you'll feel as if you are in a Bavarian village as sounds of the
German Bands (seasonal) gather people to the dance floor for a polka.

Hill.

Plein Air Art Event. Artists gather daily, venturing out into the town and
surrounding countryside to paint in the natural light (plein air) with the
opportunity to enjoy one another's company while participating in workshops and
special events. The beauty of the hills, many landscaped by the rolling
vineyards, and the fruit they produce invite the palate to sample the award
winning wines.
The event culminates in an art show and auction, presenting an
opportunity to take home an original work of art.
