Visit Mount Pleasant Winery's 9,200 square-foot tasting and bottling facility. It is a wine shop, art gallery and hands-on bottling experience all rolled into one. In addition to touring the facility and tasting award-winning wines, visitors have the opportunity to bottle their own dessert wine from a specially designed 600-gallon French oak barrel. Mount Pleasant was founded in 1859. The main winery in Augusta, Missouri, is within the first federally designated viniculture district in the United States. (See separate listing.) Wine 101 Classes are held Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. See our website for full details and class schedules. Groups and bus tours are welcome. No outside food or beverages may be brought onto the winery grounds.
