Services
All of our wines are hand-crafted in the Northern Italian tradition from different varieties of grapes grown in our property. We carefully control our wine producing process. Our goal is to produce a high-quality, great value, and enjoyable wine. Over the years, our premium wines have consistently scored high in many regional and national wine tasting competitions, winning many awards.
Sandy Valley Brewery is our new small batch, experimental brewery, specializing in subtle twists on traditional styles as well as Wine Barrel fermented Mixed Culture and Wild Ales. We are a collective of farmers, foragers, wine-makers, and artists, so it's no surprise that our base beers often take sudden turns and shifts as the seasons change, and new resources and inspirations emerge.
Spend your afternoon nestled around a cozy fire pit! Your reservation includes a fire pit, one rack of wood, seating for 8, a bottle of wine and a smores kit. Your fire pit will be located on the 2 tier patio just behind our main cabin and deck and must remain in that location. Live music location varies daily.
Imagine your wedding, one of the most memorable events in your life, hosted in a beautiful Italian inspired private vineyard at Villa Antonio Winery. It is the ideal place for a wedding, reception or rehearsal dinner that you and your guests will never forget. Be inspired by our sweeping vineyard views, stone patios with lakeviews and the majestic rolling hills of our Italian inspired winery and vineyards.
For over 50 years Fernanda Polesel has prepared traditional Italian cuisine for friends and family alike. When we opened Villa Antonio Winery, we knew that Fernanda would be the heart and soul of our kitchen and she still is to this day. Fernanda prides herself in our scratch kitchen where she oversees the staff preparing almost everything that our guests experience.

On 9/11/2021 my daughter had her wedding at Villa Antonio Winery. It all began in February 2021 meeting with Brooke. Between then and the wedding date Brooke kept in contact providing all updates we needed. Closer to the date we met with Ashley and Jeff the days coordinators. These were the most accommodating folks making sure there wasn’t anything else needed. I highly recommend the winery for anyone’s needs for an event.

By far Villa Antonio exceeded our expectations! Brooke from day one treated us like family and covered everything in detail. Ashley came on board shortly before the wedding and she did an amazing job! Thank you all for an unforgettable beautiful wedding! Angela and Charlie were beyond pleased!
Thank you thank you thank you!

We visited the winery this past weekend as a vendor for a wedding. My husband was the DJ and we arrived early to get ready for the event. Jeff was there and very friendly, helpful, and professional. Hard working and many times watched him diving in to help staff and other vendors. When Jeff left Madi arrived and was the event go to person event coordinator for the wedding and reception . The winery was beautiful, relaxing. We ordered food and that was great too. Would highly recommend this venue for event and or weekend visit.

Great place! Easy drive from the city and some decent wines and food. No Chambercine grapes that observed and glad to report. Nice atmosphere, music, and fire pits are abundant for the cool about to be spring day of Feb 27. Lots of wine and beer selections. Pretty good menu of snacks and foods too. Recommended

We went to this winery for the first time today for a wedding party and were sadly disappointed. The winery itself is gorgeous, just not so much those who work there. We were sitting inside where the party had space rented (which after chatting with the person who put together this party ..she will also be leaving a review because she had a tough time with the staff too) It was a hotter day and SO hot inside..so when we went to buy another bottle we simply asked the blonde woman working in the wine kiosk area outside, if they could open the garage doors...I told her my mom had MS and was really

I highly recommend Villa Antonio! Had our daughters wedding their this morning. We had to cancel our plans for a destination wedding. 3 weeks ago set this up with Brooke. She was so easy to work with. Was very impressed with everything from the table linens, bride & groom rooms, food and the grounds. Excellent!! Jeff took care of us when we got there and went above our expectations for service. Could not be happier. Great job guys. We will be back. The food was delicious!!

I have been to Villa Antonio Winery many different times. Every time I have gone there the staff is friendly and amazing, very accommodating. This winery is only 15 minutes from my house and every time I go I feel like I'm in my happy place. We decided to spend the Total Eclipse of 2017 at Villa Antonio and it was NOT a let down! The staff again did an AMAZING job and should be acknowledged for their great customer service especially on a day when the winery was sold out and there were many more people than usual. There were several places that we could go and see this amazing event but

What a gem! While the drive off 55 highway and thru the rural area can be a bit exhausting (it seems like it's more than 5 miles away), it's completely worth it once you arrive. Along with their $5 tasting of 5 wines, you get a glass with your purchase. The venue is beautiful and clean, and the staff is very welcoming.
Additionally, during the summer, they stay open until 10p on Friday, have live music, and half-off pizzas (yup, they have food)! Everyone wins!

This is our go-to for a day at the winery. I'm NOT a fan of the typical, overly sweet Missouri wines, and Villa Antonio is one of the few places that has wine I like to drink. I absolutely adore their Chambourcin and often bring a bottle home. I understand from others in our party that the sweeter offerings are also very good.
The setting is absolutely beautiful, with lots of seating and shade under the pavilion and tent. The live music has always been lovely but not so loud that you can't enjoy conversation.
You can bring your own nibbles, which is what we always do, but there are

Villa Antonio is an absolutely beautiful place. There are many spots to sit and sip wine. There is a gazebo, several large patios both covered and not covered and lots of green space near ponds and small lakes. The grounds are gorgeous.
However, there are some big drawbacks. As noted by others, the roads are narrow and curvy. It is easy to miss turn offs and the signage is not very easy to see. The wine is ok. Some of it is better than others but in general we like it. But, what I see as the major concern and reason I'm giving this 2 stars is the service.

The best thing that Villa Antonio has going for it is that it's closer to the metro area than most wineries. Just an exit or two past Kimmswick and you are there. Also, the grounds are very pretty with a large hill and a lake. Finally, they do sell buckets of beer if you have non-wine drinkers in your party, which some would consider a plus. I'm surrounded by winos, so that's not a big sell point for me.
Now for the not so good. Unfortunately, the wine isn't great. We tried two bottles of the Norton and it just tasted sour. I haven't met too many dry reds that I don&apos

I booked my husband's 65th surprise party here. First off ... their website is somewhat deceiving.. I you book a third of a tent you only get 1/3 of 1/2 of a tent. You could be, as we were, sandwiched between two other parties. Each group of 50 people were expected to be in this small area!!! 8 long table set in two skinny rows. All the while the other half of the tent was open seating for anyone coming to the winery. They had comfortable round tables and lots of room. The person that took our reservation was very rude, not friendly or helpful at all. Acted like there was NO WAY we

I got married here and this place is great. The patio is gorgeous with the vines above your head. The rows and rows of vines. The whole property is beautiful. And the food is wonderful. Great toasted ravs and cheese bread. Like, addicting cheese bread. Like you will eat all of it no matter what you tell yourself. Wedding coordinator, Donna brought me some the day we booked the place and the day we chatted a week before my wedding when I was crying because it was supposed to rain. They do a really really great job. It's a fabulous place for a wedding and just to eat or drink. Anyone getting

My second visit to Villa Antonio was today and I had a nice time. $5 gets you a wine glass that you can keep and five wines to taste. Tastings took place outside and the tasting attendant offered to guide us through a tasting unless we knew what we wanted. We knew we wanted sweet wines and tried three. I left without buying a bottle, but I did enjoy a nice stroll around the large patio, and am looking forward to coming back soon.

Therefore I LOVE going to places that I can...
a) drink wine

c) drink wine and eat my own snacks from my picnic basket
d) drink wine and listen to live music

f) drink wine while trying to fly a kite
