Welcome to Arkansas's Wine Country

Arkansas, home to seven commercial wineries, is the oldest and largest grape and wine producing state in the southern U.S.  

Arkansas’s wine country is primarily in the Northwest and Western parts of the state. Wine country stretches from Eureka Springs to Altus and Paris and on to Hot Springs.  Visitors to Arkansas Wine Country also can enjoy historic sites, outdoor recreation, and, of course, some of the most beautiful scenery in the country.     

 This website was developed as a service to the Wine Industry of Arkansas by the University of Arkansas, Division of Agriculture Enology and Viticulture Program. Funding for the development efforts was provided through the USDA/CSREES National Research Intitative (NRI) project entitled "Enhancement of Family Farms Through Value-added Grape Products."
