    Drink KC Wine: Stonehaus Farms Winery

    Did you know Missouri grapes basically saved the French wine industry? That's just one of the cool things we learned when we visited Stonehaus Farms Winery, a family-owned winery and vineyard in Lee's Summit, MO. We got to try their Apple Cranberry, Vignoles, and the Cynthiana, a dry red that we immediately knew we needed a bottle of to take home.
