    Rosati
    is an unincorporated community in northeast
    Phelps County
    ,
    Missouri
    , United States. The community is adjacent to the Phelps-
    Crawford
    county line on
    Missouri Route KK
    four miles (6 km) east of
    St. James
    . This road is also the former
    U.S. Highway 66
    . The
    St. Louis–San Francisco Railway
    passes through the community.  Variant names were "Knobview" and "Spading".
    The present namesake is the first bishop of the
    Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Saint Louis
    , the Italian-born
    Joseph Rosati
    .
    The area is part of Missouri's grape-growing region and Rosati is well known for its wines.
    The first Italian immigrants attempted to plant grape varieties from
    Italy
    , with no success, and instead grew
    Concord grapes
    , used for making juice.
