Open: Year-round

Windy Wine Company started many years ago.  Kraig Keesaman was enjoying the art of homebrewing, and Becky Keesaman (wife) was feeling a little wanting.  She asked Kraig to make a wine for her to enjoy while he was already engrossed, bucket deep, in a Belgium Triple.  He agreed and made a lovely Burgandy style wine.  After many compliments and encouragement to make more wines, Kraig delved into an adventure in brewing of another kind: Wine Making

Kraig worked a number of years at a local winery, assisting with vinology, vineyard maintenance, management of the sales floor, and many other aspects.  Becky also worked assisting on the sales floor.Kraig further continued his advancements while studying at the University of Missouri in their courses for vinology.  Kraig has also attended other courses offered by wine professionals.

Since the Burgandy wine kit, Kraig and Becky have planted nearly 6 acres of grapevines on their Missouri Century Farm.  With Vignoles, Delaware, Concord, and Chambourcin to start, they plan on adding more varieties in the future.
