Missouri is a historical and current center of winemaking in the United States, but the state also played a crucial role in preserving European grapevines during a nineteenth-century phylloxera outbreak, when pioneering Missouri scientists helped save French wine from extinction. The fascinating past, present and future of Missouri grape species are the subjects of a special Science Cafe presentation by Wendy L. Applequist, Ph.D., Associate Curator at the Garden’s William L. Brown Center. Learn more
