Independence Uncorked will be one of the largest Missouri wine festivals in the state featuring 25 Missouri wineries sampling several of their wines, a guest spirits distiller and 2400 attendees. The day will also feature art, music, beer, food booths and wine classes. The event is sponsored by the Rotary Club of Eastern Independence and presented by Cornell Roofing and Sheet Metal. The cost will be $30 in advance and $40 at the door and will include a wine glass and wine bag (bag for the first 2000 people) and the tastings. The Bingham-Waggoner Estate is an 1852 mansion and estate once owned by George Caleb Bingham, the famous Missouri artist.
