Welcome to Peaceful Bend Vineyard Online!

Clyde and I would like to thank you for visiting our little patch of the internet.  Scroll down for our winery blog, or click on any of the links for more information about the winery, our events, our wines, or for more photos.  We invite you to visit us in person at our tasting room in Steelville, MO throughout the year.  Until then, grab a glass of wine and settle back for a few minutes with us.

Cheers,

Katie

WWWW #35

We are bottling wine like mad around here this week!  We finished 1300 gallons yesterday (thanks to Old Woolam Custom Bottling and the help of several friends!), and hope to do around 1000 gallons today.  Keep your fingers crossed that all goes well!

Since we are busy, I’m keeping the W4 descriptions short and sweet this week.  Grab a glass and sit back to relax with some reading today.  And relax for an extra few minutes for us if you could! :)

STLWineGirl has a nice video interview talking about MO wine varities here.

Pop(sickle) wine art thoughts here.

A list of wine-focused movies can be found here.

Finally, the SF Gate is calling for nominations for their wine blog awards.  If you have a favorite wine blog out there on the internets, go here to find out how to nominate it for an award.

That’s it for this week.  Now I’m off to get ready for 1000 gallons of bottling (that’s approximately 4600 bottles of wine!).

Wine, Music and Friends

This past Sunday we had the chance to visit with friends that were attending the Americana Festival.  Joy and Mark came by with their new friend Win.  Joy brought out her violin, Mark his guitar, and Win played her accordian on our porch.  They played a few favorites and taught each other new songs.  I sat back and enjoyed the music!

I also recorded a video of a lovely instrumental that Joy introduced to Win.  Here it is….hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Planning for the weekend?

Steelville is hopping this weekend!  In addition to our musician here on Saturday afternoon (Tim Bond plays from 2-5pm on Saturday in our wine garden), you can visit the Evans House Art Center in Steelville (303 West Main St.) between 10-6 to see intricate scrimshaw made by Missouri artist, Michelle ‘Mike’ Ochonicky.  An artist reception is planned for 4-6pm, and I hear tell there will be some tasty wine during the reception! :)

In the evenings you might want to venture over to the Rafting Company on Friday and Saturday at 8pm for more great music during the Americana Music Festival.

The Soda Fountain and Art and Joe’s will be open this weekend to help fill your belly.  We are all eagerly waiting for Missouri Hick BBQ South to open, but alas, it isn’t in the works for this weekend.

All this, plus of course the winery will be open from 11am-6pm throughout the weekend.  Hope you can venture down our way!
