Perched on the bluffs above the Missouri River, the A-Frame Winegarden at Les Bourgeois Vineyards has been one of mid-Missouri’s most beloved outdoor destinations for over three decades. The iconic A-frame structure anchors an open-air wine garden where guests gather to enjoy locally produced wines alongside a casual picnic-style menu — think charcuterie, snacks, and hearty baskets made to pair with a glass in hand.
The setting does a lot of the work here. Sweeping blufftop views stretch across the river valley, and on warm evenings the combination of live music, good wine, and that panorama makes for something genuinely hard to replicate. It draws everyone from cyclists finishing a Katy Trail ride to families celebrating milestones to couples looking for a low-key but memorable evening out.
The A-Frame is seasonal, generally open April through October daily starting at noon, with limited weekend hours in shoulder months and a winter closure. Covered areas are available for private events when you want to reserve a piece of the blufftop for your own group. For the most current hours — especially during unpredictable spring and fall weather — a quick check of their Facebook page before heading out is always a good idea.
