About Flint Hills

The Flint Hills region, stretching across east-central Kansas from Manhattan down toward Wichita, is one of the last expanses of tallgrass prairie in North America. Wineries here pair scenic grassland views with estate-grown and regionally sourced wines, drawing on the limestone-rich soils that give the region its name.
