History

Viticulture in Nebraska dates back to the 19th century. German, Bohemian and other European immigrants planted vines along the Missouri River, mainly American varieties. With national prohibition (1920-1933), viticulture came to an almost complete standstill. It was not until the 1990s that a revival began, mainly through the cultivation of frost-hardy hybrids that are better adapted to the climatic conditions.
