Distillery on Campus

 

On the campus of Missouri State University and the Missouri State Fruit Experiment Station, one can find a distillery.  It is called the Missouri State Winery and Distillery.  

Mountain Grove Missouri
















Many years ago when I visited the winery, I bought a bottle of port that had received an award.  I still have that bottle.  They say that port is best aged and this one has been aging close to 20 years now.
