"Every vine here tells a story of patience, terrain, and a stubborn refusal to rush."

Rooted in the Ozarks,
Built by Hand

Knotted Rope Winery began as a conviction: that the rolling hills and distinct microclimate of Hochatown could produce wine worth seeking out. What started with a single acre and a handful of cuttings has grown into a respected boutique vineyard — still small, still intentional, still entirely hands-on.

Our wines carry the character of this place: structured yet approachable, layered with the kind of depth that only comes from waiting. We farm sustainably, ferment slowly, and bottle sparingly. No shortcuts. No mass production. Just wine that reflects the land it comes from.

Sun-Drenched Vines

Southern exposure on south-facing slopes for optimal ripening.

Hand-Harvested

Every cluster picked at peak maturity by our team.

Small-Batch Only

~4,500 cases yearly — never rushed, always balanced.

Sustainable Farming

Organic practices that honor the Ozark ecosystem.

From Vine to Glass,
Nothing Rushed

Each varietal is a deliberate expression of place — fermented in small batches, aged in oak, and bottled only when it's ready.

What Our Guests Say

The best reviews come from people who've walked our rows and raised a glass.

"We drove down from Tulsa just for the tasting, and it was worth every mile. The Reserve is unlike anything I've had in the state. The setting is pure magic at sunset."
Sarah M.

"Hosted our anniversary dinner on the terrace and it was unforgettable. The staff made us feel like family, and the pairing menu was thoughtful and delicious."

"As a wine professional, I'm picky. Knotted Rope's attention to detail is remarkable — the Brut is genuinely competitive with much larger producers. A hidden gem."
