Pizza Tonight at Van Till Family Farm Winery

It might sound odd, but the best thing about this winery might just be the pizza. Owners Cliff and Debbie Van Till have found their niche somewhat by accident. Several years ago, the Van Tills put out a sign announcing pizza at the winery that night. Thanks to very low over night temperatures, the sign was stuck in the ground. “Pizza Tonight” lived another day. Several years later, Friday and Saturday pizza in the wine garden continues to flourish.

The Van Tills planted their vineyards in 2006 and started making wine three years later. While new to both Missouri and wine making, the couple had spent their lives bringing wholesome food to their community. In California, they raised organic vegetables and almonds and sold baked goods made with organic flour at a farm market in San Francisco. When they migrated to Missouri, they brought with them the entire bakery setup and founded Rayville Baking Co. Now they have a proprietary pizza crust made with organic grain, they grow many of the vegetables used for their pizzas, and they make all of their own salad dressings using non-GMO ingredients.

Enjoy it all in their exquisite wine garden. And, save room for the carrot cake.
