It is only 35 more days until this magnificent festival opens, featuring twenty-three Illinois wineries. The event is only open to 23 participants and spaces fill up immediately! This years’ event runs Saturday, September 15 – Sunday, September 16.

The two day festival includes live music, wine instruction by Bradley Beam, the state enologist, and of course, wine tasting! For more information and ticket details visit www.vintageillinois.com
