Backyard Vine & Wine

Backyard is a small, family owned vineyard and winery located in Maryville, Missouri.

It began as a retirement project by our father — it started off as some fun cleaning up the land, or as he calls it, “playing in the dirt.” His love of the outdoors and his green thumb inspired him to dive in further and start this journey that pulled us all together to create this beautiful vineyard and some terrific Missouri wines.

With the help of family and friends, he transformed the land from a mess of tangled trees and a growing pile of junk into a very serene acreage with approximately five acres of grapevines intertwining three ponds. The first vines were planted in 2008 with additional plots added in subsequent years. Currently, we have seven varieties totaling around 2,600 plants.
