These 18 Missouri wineries make pairing wine and pizza easy

Recently, I found myself home alone.  The kids were at camp and my wife took off early for New Orleans where I would meet her for our summer break.  I used to do well on my own, but now I don’t think I do. I used to go out and do stuff, now when I’m home alone, I just stay and binge watch TV and order pizza.

The pizza is good.  I have no problem with delivery, but something made we wish for more. So I did some research about where one can find really good, homemade, wood-fired pizza and good beer and wine.
