Stone Pillar Winery

Stone Pillar Vineyard & Winery, Johnson County’s original farm winery, is located 20 minutes southwest of Kansas City in Olathe, Kansas and is owned and operated by the Hoff Family who has farmed this land since before the Civil War. George and Brandi Hoff were inspired to begin a vineyard and winery of their own while on vacation in 2004. The luscious grain fields that surrounded the beautiful family owned vineyards and wineries that they saw while on a winery tour at Niagara on the Lake reminded them of the family farm in Kansas and the seed was planted.
Once home, George, along with his brother Frank and cousin Thomas Jr. (fifth generation Hoff men), convinced farm owners Tom Sr. and his wife Marcie that a winery would be a great way to keep the small acreage farm productive as the city swallowed up nearby pastures and fields. The first vines were planted in 2007 and the winery opened for sales May 1, 2010. The family works closely with their own vines and their local growers to ensure a high quality hand-picked Kansas wine. The Hoff’s welcome you to visit during regular hours and to attend some of their many after-hours special events. Cheers!
