Chateau Sainte Genevieve – Grape-Growing Passion on the Missouri Terroir Just outside Ste. Genevieve, where rolling hills meet fertile bottomlands and the tradition of viticulture stretches back to the town’s French colonial roots, Chateau Sainte Genevieve stands as a testament to what happens when genuine passion for winemaking combines with relentless pursuit of quality.

The Ste. Geneviève Grape During the 1800s, Ste. Geneviève had its own type of grape. It went by various names, Ste. Geneviève, Amoureux, Red Elben, and American Rulander.
