Pheasant Hollow Winery & Monthly Dinner Mystery

Favorite Wine: Gun Creek Red and Orange & Blue

This winery was very beautiful... Their wines were ok...they have a broad variety, so am sure most people would find one they like. Typically I have liked sweet wines, but am finding myself going more "semi-sweet" or "off-dry" now. I really liked the Gun Creek White, which is an off-dry and the "Orange & Blue" was very unique, as it is made from the orange muscat grape and some blueberry added in.

Favorite Wine: Norton

Another nice Illinois winery located right off the highway. I laud these wineries who must know that I travel their roads frequently and am always looking for wineries to try. Maybe 5 miles off the highway down a short gravel road in a little wooded tract, Pheasant Hollow has a darling log cabin with a fireplace, a long tasting bar. Their Norton isn't as bold as most Missouri Nortons, but distinctive. Big oak, nice buttery finish, I picked up a bottle and enjoyed it last week. I only try the dry reds, so no opinion of the sweet stuff they offer...
