Shimmery White Struts it Stuff!

Some great things are happening at Illinois River Winery located in the Illinois River Valley near Utica in north central Illinois.  Their wines have very unique labels designed by artists, many participating in the Artist is residency program they offer.

We had the opportunity to try their Riesling, a semi-sweet white wine in the German wine style.   Illinois River Winery calls it, “our most versatile white for food paring.”  It was crisp with a complexity of fruit flavors, yet subtle in its sweetness. We found it quite yummy and refreshing to experience.  At around $16.00 a bottle, it is a good buy for a nice Midwest Riesling.
