The Missouri Wine and Grape Board (MWGB) is funded by a twelve cents-per-gallon tax on wine sales.
We coordinate our marketing and public relations activities with
wholesalers, restaurant operators, retailers, and the public. Our
goals are to strengthen 
interest in, and patronage of, our state's
grape, grape juice, and wine industry. We also underwrite the Institute
for Continental Climate Viticulture & Enology (ICCVE) in its work with winemakers and grape growers developing grape
varieties suitable for Missouri.
