Reserve Cellars of Hermann, Missouri, is steeped in a rich history of winemaking that dates back to the mid-19th century. Housed in a two-story press house and wine cellar built alongside the main 1847 residence, Reserve Cellars stands as a testament to the enduring importance of viticulture in the region. The cellar was historically used by George Husmann, a pioneering figure in Missouri winemaking and a key contributor to the development of the American wine industry. Every stone and timber of our facility reflects this legacy, connecting modern visitors to a time when winemaking was at the heart of community and innovation.

Throughout its history, Reserve Cellars has been more than just a place to craft exceptional wines. During the Kallmeyer family era, farmhands lived above the cellar, dedicating their days to tending the fields and their nights to rest in this historic space, nourished by the hearty meals of Mrs. Kallmeyer. Today, Reserve Cellars honors this tradition of craftsmanship, care, and community, welcoming guests to experience not only our fine wines but also the stories and heritage that make Hermann a cornerstone of American viticulture.
