Creekside Vineyards, Coal Valley IL |
We look forward to sharing our passion of wine, the outdoors, family, and creativity with anyone interested in learning about us and following us in the growth of our business and development of our lives.
The picture you see is a view of our vineyard in spring; our vines daily remind me of the cyclic nature of time, the importance of commitment and patience, the delicate yet resilient nature of our world, and provide me with a sense of place I only feel when close to nature. My husband John and I have spent countless hours tending the vineyard over the years. It provides us a good crop for wine making but also, maybe more importantly, an incredibly place to share with family, friends, each other.
From the hawk's screech to the owl's hoot, to the sounds of conversation at the Inn or Wine Terrace, to the lull of the green tractor in the vineyard, Creekside Vineyards is not just our place of business, it is our home. We look forward to sharing stories about both with you....
Cheers!
