The Midwest Wine and Grape Summit is brought to you by:
Illinois Grape Growers & Vintners Alliance
The Illinois Grape Growers and Vintners Alliance (IGGVA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to developing the viticulture and enology interests of Illinois through information exchange and cooperation among Illinois grape producers and vintners.
Missouri Wines
The Missouri Wine Marketing and Research Council was developed in 1999. At its core, the Council is a check-off program with the purpose of helping promote and improve the grape and wine industries in the state. The Council’s objectives are to promote the consumption of grape and wine products; increase the efficiency of grape and wine production through marketing; provide research and education programs for the benefit of grape growers and wineries; and cooperate with the Missouri Wine and Grape Board and other state, regional and national organizations in promoting the general welfare of Missouri’s grape and wine industry.
Missouri VINTNER’s Assocation
The Missouri Vintners Association membership is made up of winery owners from throughout the state of Missouri. MVA works with professional lobbyists in Jefferson City to stay abreast and quickly address legislative issues facing commercial Missouri wineries. MVA communicates the needs of commercial Missouri wineries to the Missouri Wine and Grape Board and is a state association member of Wine America.
