Kansas Wineries

This past Saturday a group of us toured some wineries in the Kansas City area. It definitely wasn't Napa Valley, but we all had a great time learning about Kansas wines. The wines were quite tasty and we all took bottles home to enjoy later.
Our first stop (and probably our favorite) was Bluejacket winery in Eudora. The people were great!

Their grapes were so pretty!

They use black flags to scare the birds away!

Our next stop in Eudora was Davenport winery (probably our least favorite). There's really not much to say about this one. I didn't find their wines tasty at all.

From there we headed up north of the Legends to the Wine Barn. This was a great winery to visit also. They are new, but had lots of wines to try and great snacks!



Our final stop was Holy-Field winery in Basehor.
My favorite things about this stop was their big huge dog on the floor!

I would definitely do this again! It was such a fun day and not many people think about wineries in Kansas!
