Shamrock Hills Vineyard & Winery is second up. Nestled in the beautiful Missouri River Valley, Shamrock Hills Vineyard and Winery is a hidden gem on a 323-acre farm. Mike & Denise Riley opened their doors in April 2023, creating a welcoming space for visitors to enjoy great Missouri wines, stunning views, and the warmth of camaraderie. In 2023, Shamrock planted 3,000 vines across 5 acres, adding an additional acre and 600 vines in 2024. While the estate vineyard grows and develops, Shamrock Hills has partnered with Mid-Missouri Vineyards to provide grapes and produce their first couple of vintages. We are excited for you to try our wines and savor the beauty of the land that surrounds the tasting room.
