Samuel Berton Distillery

Samuel Berton Distillery combines craft spirits production with a wine tasting room in Labadie, Missouri, a rural community along the Missouri River in Franklin County. It holds a perfect 5.0-star rating from 15 reviewers, suggesting a tight-knit, high-quality operation with a loyal early following. Labadie sits in the Missouri Rhineland, a stretch of the Missouri River valley historically known for wine production dating back to German immigrant settlers in the 1800s. That historical context makes a distillery and tasting room here feel connected to the region's long tradition of craft beverage production.

The distillery side of the business produces small-batch spirits, which guests can sample alongside wines in the tasting room. This dual focus means a visit here covers more ground than a standard winery stop. Tasting room flights likely include both distilled products and wines, giving visitors a fuller picture of what the property produces. For enthusiasts who enjoy exploring American craft spirits alongside wine, the combination is genuinely rare and makes Samuel Berton a distinct destination within the Missouri Rhineland wine and spirits trail.

Samuel Berton Distillery serves visitors in Labadie and Franklin County, as well as day-trippers from St. Louis, about 40 miles to the east. It sits naturally along the Missouri Rhineland wine trail, making it a logical stop for anyone touring the Augusta or Hermann wine regions.
