Durso Hills - Marquand

Durso Hills Winery is no longer opened because the owners built opened a new place outside of town. Victoria Vineyards. So this afternoon my husband I along with another couple decided to take the hour drive check out the New Establishment. Upon arrival we saw that it was packed. Which is usually a sign of good food. The hostess said it would b awhile because a group of 30 just came in they only had one waitress. Which was fine with us cause we were going to spend the afternoon there. We sat for 30 minutes NO one even came by with menus or to take drink order. So my friend went up to the bar asked if we could order from there because we saw people up there placing orders. But the Gal said No they would get to us soon. Then about 15 minutes later we saw a table that just came in get waited on. My friend again goes up to the bar asked if we could order drinks on a tab while we waited. She was again told NO we had to wait our turn. So she asked why that table just got waited on they told her ...they are our friends. So after wasting almost an hr of our time we decided we should take our business elsewhere. We were really excited about checking this new place out but after this experience I don 't believe we will be returning.

My wife 's family (hello Haislars) owns a farm right next door to the new Durso Hills. While I liked the old place, this new place seems like it is going to be incredible. They have a large, very beautiful, front bar and restaurant area, and they 're building a large reception space in the back. Inside it feels like a really fancy, really clean converted barn (except it 's brand new and never has housed an animal other than my brothers in law). Very spacious, what feels like 30 ' ceilings, and a enough wood shiplap to make Chip and Joanna Gaines jealous. As of October '19, the new location is open while still in the process of finishing internal construction. It looks like they have a month or so of work left to go. So, if you want the full menu and bar, you 'll have to wait a little longer. However, if you 're okay with light appetizer limited menu meal, they have some good things available. Lovely owners, good food, good atmosphere. I 'd say to check it out if you 're ever nearby!

After driving out of our way from SC for a return trip to Durso Winery, we were elated to meet the new owner and sales site. We had previously visited in 2008 when we were impressed with the operations, but today even more is in store for those wandering the back roads of Southeast Missouri for a unique collection of locally produced wines. The Norton and Chambourcin dry red wines compete with the best produced in the state of Missouri. How do we know, we've now visited 50 of Missouri's 95 Norton producing wineries! Unlike so many other Norton wine producers from Missouri and other states (317 Norton Wineries in 25 states), Durso does not release its Norton wines until they are matured for proper tasting which can take five or more years resting in bottle.

Excellent choice of wine and beer! I usually don't like Missouri wine but I do like Durso Wine. The food is very good. You wouldn't except this standard of food in such a small town. The service is outstanding and very friendly. Love the patio area too

The only show in town, but fortunately it's also good... Great selection of beer, wine, even mead and sour beers ! Though there is no cell service in the town of Marquand, the Bistro has wifi so you can stay connected.
