Orlandini Vineyard began its roots in 1988 when their first vines were planted. Over two decades later the grapes are still flourishing. Orlandini Vineyard is located on one of southern Illinois' highest ridge tops, deep in the heart of the Shawnee Hills A.V.A. After years of practice and experimentation in wine making, Orlandini Vineyard began releasing wines to the the public in 2001. Novices and connoisseurs have been enjoying our hand tended vintages ever since.

Orlandini Vineyard offers seven equally wonderful and irresistible tastes:

2005 Chambourcin - This estate wine is lightly oaked, creating a silky, medium-bodied red. The earthy savor is enhanced by vanilla and berry.

2005 Chambourcin & Cabernet Franc - A European style dry red blend that provides a full, long finish. The aroma of smoky, toasted oak swirls around flavors of dark chocolate.

2007 Traminette - A perfectly balanced crisp and spicy semi-sweet white wine that captures the signature floral nose of a German varietal.

2007 Vidal-Full of bright grapefruit and lemon flavors, this dry white wine is a limited edition to Orlandini Vineyard.
$12.00 per bottle (tax included)  $4.00 per glass

2007 White Chambourcin - Quickly removing the skins from the grapes early in the wine making process turns regular red grapes into an exciting blush. This semi-sweet wine has notes of cherry and other spring berries.

2007 Rosso Gustoso- This estate grown semi-sweet Chambourcin is one of Orlandini Vineyard's newest releases. Fermenting the grapes on their skins produces the rich purple color.
$12.00 per bottle (includes tax)  $4.00 per glass

2005 Vignoles - This grown sweet Vignoles has a bouquet that bursts with rich, exotic fruit aromas. The tastes of pineapple and apricot are complimented with a hint of honey.

Concord- This native American grape contains the classic taste of Grandma's grape jelly. Always a summer crowd pleaser.
$10.00 per bottle (includes tax)  $3.00 per glass
