Oz Winery: Bringing the magic of Oz in every bottle

September 9, 2024

Oz Winery, located in the heart of Wamego, Kansas, is a fun tribute to the Wizard of Oz and Kansas wine. Since the Oz Museum opened its doors in 2003, it quickly became a popular destination, drawing visitors eager to experience the world of Oz. With the natural association between the iconic movie and the state of Kansas, Oz Winery was opened to add another layer of magic to Wamego, offering a unique experience for fans of the classic tale.

The team at Oz Winery is passionate about their craft, and this dedication shines through in every bottle. Oz offers an approachable, food-friendly experience for all palates. Among their popular selections are Fraidy Cat, a sweet Vignoles with tropical notes of pineapple and mango, and Emerald City Lights, a semi-dry smooth white wine. For those seeking something bold, Drunken Munchkin, a robust Cabernet Sauvignon featured on Broadway with The Wiz, offers a rich palate of black fruits and a peppery finish.

The magic of Oz extends beyond the wine itself, with the tasting room at Oz Winery offering an immersive experience for visitors. Guests can explore the world of Oz while enjoying some of Kansas' finest wines. Store manager Maria remarks, “Highlighting Kansas is one of the best parts of the job.” Many visitors are pleasantly surprised to learn about Kansas' wine industry, and it’s a delight for the team to share their creations. Other sellers include Squished Witch, a deep red, and Witch Gone Good, a popular Moscato known for its sweet and refreshing taste.

Looking ahead, Oz Winery is gearing up for their upcoming Octoberfest on October 5. Maria, says, “Everywhere has a fall festival, but not everywhere has a Wizard of Oz fall festival.” This unique event will blend the magic of Oz with the harvest season, inviting guests to enjoy festive activities and celebrate both the iconic tale and the beauty of the season. For those who wish to bring a bit of Oz magic into their homes, Oz Winery offers a variety of wines available for purchase online and in their Wamego tasting room. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Oz Winery welcomes you to join them on a journey through the magical world of Oz — one glass at a time.
