And for the wines, we’ll be hosting AMIGONI URBAN WINERY, the only Missouri winery to exclusively grow Vitis Vinifera grapes. Their wines are made from grapes grown at their estate vineyard in Centerview, Missouri, about 45 miles east of Kansas City and bottles here in the West Bottoms. They also bring in grapes from Lodi, California to supplement fruit from their vineyard. Of their wines, we’ll be sampling:

amigoni wineryCABERNET – Winner of the Medal of Excellence at the 2015 Jefferson Cup, this medium-bodied wine is aged 12 months in Missouri oak barrels to give a subtle warmth to its bright flavors of cherry and raspberry and its medium tannin structure.

SAUVIGNON BLANC – Aromas of lemon peel and hints of grapefruit and pineapple.

URBAN DROVER – this blend of 50% Cabernet Franc and 50% Petit Verdot is aged 18 months in Missouri oak barrels to give complexity and depth to its nice, mature flavors of dark cherry and spice.

VIOGNIER – Aromas of violet and flavors of stone fruit and honey. A nice balance of crisp acidity with a rich mid-palate mouth feel.

CABERNET FRANC – Their signature grape and best seller! Flavors of fresh cherry preserves, vanilla and tobacco with a lingering oak finish. Aged 18 months in Missouri oak barrels.
