Somerset Ridge Vineyard and Winery (written Feb 25, 2012)
Wine: Winery: Ambiance:
One of the more successful wineries commercially in Kansas. Good selection and a cozy, albeit remote, location. Eleven wines to chose from, and all were available for tasting. Good mix of dries and semi-sweets and sweets, with a nice selection of fortified wines. The Citron was a unique fortified wine with a lemony twist. A little out of the way, but recommended. The anchor point of the Somerset Wine Trail, along with Middle Creek (Graue) and Night Hawk wineries.

Belvoir Winery (written Jan 22, 2012)

Missouri's only haunted winery(at least as far as I know). The winery and tasting room are set up in a couple of buildings in the century old Odd Fellows Home estate. The rumors of the building being haunted pre-date the winery by decades, but the building are still under renovation, which takes away from the ambiance just a little. Only six wines are offered for tasting, but they represent a good range. The dry wines are subtle and not at all "oaky". The Sorelle Dolci is an excellent sweet white.

Great place to buy wine accessories as well as some good wines. Great environment and ambiance. Check out the Valvin Muscat.
