Just north east of Carbondale is this gorgeous unique winery. Truly impressive in comparison to the wineries shown on the Southern Illinois wine trail. My guess is Walker’s Bluff isn’t on the list probably due to its location. I think their wine is on dry side but a nice Rose’ was suggested for me and it suited me as a semi sweet. They had music on the evening I went to have dinner. Service was good. Food was slow to come but delicious. I wasn’t expecting this to be a fast food place and enjoyed the atmosphere/music while I waited. BIG suggestion not to miss! Ask if you can walk in the back to see the wine cave they built. Weddings are held there and you’ll also discover an area with a circular table for private wine tasting. If you drive around back of the winery you’ll see the “Down the Rabbit Hole” entrance to the cave. Go and explore Walker’s Bluff for yourself!
