Delicious wine. Reasonable prices. Beautiful location. Had a nice tasting of wines. They also had wine slush, beer, cheese and crackers. Indoor and outdoor seating. On weekends they have live music. Their staff is quite knowledgeable. We had a great time and will definitely be back!

We really enjoyed the variety of wines offered. Each one we tried was really good. We shared some swiss almond cheese and Ritz crackers which paired well with the wines. Seating was provided indoors or out. It was the perfect fall day to sit outside and chat with friends.

Alto Vineyards is a beautiful setting with fantastic wine... add CU Comedy to that, and you have a winning combination every time!

We visited today and were practically ignored. This is the 2nd time we tried to visit with similar results. There are a lot of wineries in the central Illinois area to try that are super friendly. This was a bad experience both time. We wont try for a 3rd.

Nice, quiet setting, musical entertainment was nice and the folk/soft rock singer was perfect for a Sunday afternoon date.

Is a pretty good wine bar. No vineyard. They have all there wine transferred from the Alto Vinyard in Alto Pass. However, the staff was very helpful. Knew there stuff when it came to the wine. However, we have been to the one in Alto Pass many times so knew what wine we liked. The atmosphere was also very good... The only negative thing I have to say about it is there were no signs on the road to help with location. We used gps and it took us the long way apparently. All around a good experience tho.

There was a Faternity Party on the grounds the day we visited. It was not relaxing or enjoyable. They needed there own tasting area. It was just constant running in and out and long lines, no slushies because they couldnt keep up.But the wines we liked. But what was to be a relaxing time with my friends was not relaxing at all.

Dueling BanosThe restroom in this tasting house has dual sinks and dual toilets so you can race your friends in a good ol pee contest.Aside that this place is as normal as can be and even a great place for entertainment. The boys from CU Comedy put on an amazing show. Wine, cheese, popcorn and puppies on this trip were the highlights.

Great wine! Service mediocre....not warm...not very friendly! No welcoming greeting when entering...seemed we were an inconvenience. Why no tastings? Been to others that have tastings.

Great deal on sampling wine, you get to keep the glass and Tara was very attentive. Fun place to hang and sip some

Nice homely vibes and a good way to get out of town for a little while. This place is far enough out of town that it feels like youre in the middle of nowhere. They had a good selection of wines; some were not very good, but taste is subjective, so I cant take any stars off for that. This is a great place to go with friends to have a relaxing afternoon around a bottle of local wine.

Alto has excellent wines. Much better than most regional wineries/vineyards. They also have events and music on a regular basis making it a nice experience overall.

Review №29

A nice little winery with a charming feel. They have live music during the summer months and all kinds of events through the the year. The wines are great and the staff friendly and knowledgeable. Theres a wine for everyone at Alto! The 3 free samples never hurt either. I like to know what Im buying and this makes it possible. The nice country feel is great too.

My wife and I each sampled 6 wines for $5 so thats twelve oz to share among 2. we narrowed it down to top 2 for getting bottles and took home a nice bottle chiller too. we enjoyed the wine and cheese and fun conversation. perfect time of year to sit out on the porch and watch the sunset. hope to be back again soon.

We had our wedding there in October of 2012 and the staff was awesome! They were so accomodating in every way and just great people to deal with. The venue was very personal and romantic, and even with the weather we had to deal with because of all the people involved it turned out great.After the ceremony we had a couple of cases for everyone to enjoy of our favorite wine and everyone loved the Port!!! The wine is very well priced and the selection provides something everyone will enjoy.
