Region:

Missouri

Missouri stands as a historically rich and geographically varied winegrowing region in the heart of the United States. Stretching across rolling hills and along the banks of mighty rivers, Missouri's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) present a dynamic array of terroir. Influenced by the confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, these water bodies play a critical role in moderating the climate of nearby vineyards, providing a buffer that helps to cool the air during hot summers. This climate regulation is essential for a gradual and full ripening of grapes. Vineyards situated in cooler microclimates near the rivers excel in producing delicate, aromatic wines, while those in the more temperate inland areas are known for their robust, flavorful vintages.
