5 star meal

We stopped at the Herman Vineyards to have lunch at the Peach Barn Cafe in Alto Pass IL. It is a little out of the way place with the best food I have ever had!

Good European-Style Wine

Stopped in for a wine tasting. The tasting room is built in a beautifully restored old barn set in rural Southern Illinois. I thoroughly enjoyed their wine - not the over-sweet adult KoolAid that I associate with some Southern Illinois wine.
