Illinois Vintage Wine Fest

Rain or shine, Matthiessen State Park is the place to be this Saturday and Sunday. For $20/person, individuals can take part in the Illinois Vintage Wine Fest. Pricing includes a souvenir glass, a wristband, and 5 wine tasting tickets. (And for $5, your designated driver gets a couple non-alcoholic drink vouchers.)

The event also includes musical entertainment and runs from 11 am to 6 pm Saturday and 12 noon to 5 pm Sunday. Local wineries, as well as some not-so-local, will be in attendance.

So make a day, or a weekend of it. Just make sure you come out and see us afterward. You can try out the wine pairing selections on our digital menus to discover what will go well with your meal choice. And once you have an idea what you've got a taste for, we'll be happy to pour you a glass!
