Ken and Becky Miller are kind and thoughtful people. Becky's son Chris Lorch is their vintner. A person need only to get Chris into a discussion of his vines and wines to get a taste of his passion for wine-making. His dedication translates to quality in Sugar Creek wines.
Sugar Creek, located on Hwy 94 in Defiance, MO, has a red blend named after their grandfather. In 1912 Michael Belmoynte from Italy inspired the tradition of wine-making. Michael's Signature Red is a medium bodied dry red that has fruit forward berry tones to a touch of smoke and a slight spiciness, ending with a flavorful finish.
If you head out toward Augusta, make time for a visit to Sugar Creek. Offering both good wines and a nice view, you will not be able to resist lingering on the patio with a bottle of Cynthiana and enjoying the live music and the Miller's hospitality.
