Our winery is named for our founder and winemaker, Antonio Polesel. Antonio takes pleasure in offering his wines here in Missouri for your enjoyment. Antonio learned the art of winemaking from his father while growing up in the Veneto region of Northern Italy. Since then, he has refined his skills in producing Italian style wines from the Native American and French-American hybrid grapes which thrive in New York and the Midwest.

Our co-founder and chef-in-charge, Fernanda 'Nanda' Polesel, uses only the freshest available produce and meats to prepare her wonderful Italian dishes that complement our wines. She has developed a vast array of delectable pastries and desserts to top off any meal.

Thomas Polesel joined the winery as General Manager in 2002. Tom enjoys working side by side with his father and mother, running the day to day operations of the winery.

Villa Antonio Winery was founded in 2000. With more than 10 acres of planted vineyards, we are growing every year. Varietals we grow and use include Norton (Cynthiana), Chambourcin, and Seyval, just to name a few.

Villa Antonio on KSDK

Villa Antonio Winery was recently featured on KSDK Channel 5's "Show Me St. Louis". The segment offers a lovely glimpse of the winery. We'd like to offer a big thanks to Channel 5 and to all of our friends and fans who came out for the taping. We'd also like to thank Matt Weyand for lending his musical talent for the day.
