Our Story

Located just north of Kansas City near historic Weston, Riverwood Winery is a family-owned destination where handcrafted wines, one of northern Missouri's largest whiskey selections, artisan food, and live music come together in a setting unlike any other.

Riverwood opened in 2007 inside a beautifully restored elementary school, but its story began years earlier when David and Ginah discovered an abandoned vineyard on their Weston property—a moment that inspired the dream of creating a winery built on craftsmanship, hospitality, and community.

Today, we're proud to welcome guests for wine tastings, gourmet food, live entertainment, and memorable experiences while remaining committed to sustainable winemaking and exceptional hospitality.

    October is one of our favorite times of year at Riverwood Winery.


    As the leaves begin to change and the cooler fall weather settles in, there’s something especially beautiful about spending an afternoon or evening at the winery. Whether you’re joining us for a glass of wine, live music, or simply a relaxing fall day in the country, there’s plenty happening all month long.


    October Events and Specials:


    -International Wine Tasting: Bold Reds and Rich Whites from Around the World!

    -Hot Spiced Wine will be back starting 10/1!

    -New Fall inspired Cocktails and Wine Slushies!

    -Live Reading of Edgar Alan Poe (date to be determined. Watch for updates)

    -Four Live Music performers every Friday-Sunday

    -Oktoberfest Beer Tasting and Food Specials (available through 10/6)

    -Halloween Weekend at Riverwood (Spooky details to come)


    Come take in the fall colors, enjoy a glass of wine, listen to some great music, and spend a little time with us this October. We look forward to welcoming you to Riverwood!
