This is a list of wineries in Missouri.[1] German immigrants in the early-to-mid-19th century founded the wine industry in Missouri, resulting in its wine corridor being called the Missouri "Rhineland". Later Italian immigrants also entered wine production. In the mid-1880s, more wine was produced by volume in Missouri than in any other state. Before prohibition, Missouri was the second-largest wine-producing state in the nation. Missouri had the first area recognized as a federally designated American Viticultural Area with the Augusta AVA acknowledged on June 20, 1980.[2] There are now four AVAs in Missouri. In 2021 there were over 130 wineries operating in the state of Missouri, up from 92 in 2009.[3][4][5]
