Live music

First come, first served — we do not take reservations. This is the schedule as the winery published it on 21 August 2026; their page states no year against these dates, so none is shown here. Check with the winery before travelling.

In our guests' words
Such a beautiful place. No details were missed in creating a warm, comfortable, friendly environment. Such a blessing to have this winery right in our own backyard. Thank you for your vision, knowledge and hard work.
See the original →What a great experience! From the wine to the people working there, everything and everyone was great! Great place to sample some great-tasting wine and take in the beautiful views inside and out. Definitely a place to visit more than once!
See the original →I just wanted to thank you all for allowing us to invade your space Sunday evening for our good friends baby shower. You were so accommodating, kind and helpful. We certainly look forward to coming there again.
See the original →Found you by chance and it was a wonderful discovery. We will be back. Some of the best wine in the area. Wonderful, beautiful grounds.
See the original →Thank you for having us! We continue to recommend Ladoga to all our friends. Great wine and great people make for a winning combination!
See the original →The staff is very friendly and helpful. They have the typical sweet wines found at most Missouri wineries but also have some unique selections including a strawberry wine and a very nice Norton. We enjoyed a glass of wine out on their back terrace with a beautiful view of their vineyards from atop a bluff.
See the original →Good questions
Yes. Outside food may be brought in. The winery's kitchen is not available for food preparation or cleanup, and insurance does not allow staff to reheat food.
No. Missouri state law allows only alcohol purchased from Ladoga Ridge Winery to be on the premises. Bringing your own is a breach of the rental contract.
Ladoga Ridge is now a family-friendly winery. Those under 21 must be in the company of an adult at all times. One exception: all guests in the Large Gazebo must be 21 and older.
No. Concerts and events are first come, first served.
Tastings run during normal business hours throughout the year, first come, first served at the bar. Check in at the bar and let a server know how many are in your party. Tastings stop fifteen minutes before closing, and may vary during special events.
Yes. You may hire a licensed caterer of your choice, or the winery can recommend one. Linens, plates, cups, serving tools and condiments are the renter's responsibility, and you or your caterer clear up by the end of the rental.
