Little Hills Winery and Restaurant
Cedric Sutton's Company Details
With over 20 years producing award-winning wines, Little Hills now ranks among the largest wineries in Missouri. Stop by and relax in the main dining area or upstairs in the loft, and savor the moment by tasting award-winning Little Hills Wines, produced from French hybrid and native wine grapes, all grown in Missouri. The first recorded deed of the Little Hills property dates back to 1805, one year after Lewis & Clark arrived. The land was purchased for $1,500 with consideration of $500 in animal skins. For approximately 10 years the restaurant building housed a pharmacy, and eventually became a meat locker and processing plant. During Prohibition, bootleg whiskey was sold out the back door. After Prohibition it became a tavern called The Golden Buffet and remained as such until Little Hills purchased it in 1986.In 1998, David and Tammy Campbell (pictured above) purchased the restaurant and have grown the establishment to include not only the restaurant and working winery utilizing local caverns where much of the bottling is done, but also a gift shop just a few blocks further south on Historic Main Street. Their vineyard is in Eiola, MO which is where they grow their Norton and Vignole grapes. Phil Graczyk (pictured below) is their Master Wine Maker.
