Les Bourgeois Vineyards



Located west of Columbia along the banks of the Missouri River, going south at the Rocheport exit, is Les Bourgeois Vineyard.








Straight ahead you can just see the top of the bistro.



Approaching the A-Frame








A nice evening is to go to the A-frame an hour before sunset, order some wine or whatever else you might want to drink, and just set.  We are bad in this culture about just setting.


In the next few pictures in the background is the Missouri River.









Sunset - the effect is highlighted because I am shooting into the sun.

Time to go.


Worth the trip.  Especially nice when the students are not in town just to cut down a bit on the crowding.  But, if the weather is nice, no matter when, go.
