About Roselle / Chicago Suburbs Wine Country
Roselle is the anchor of Chicago's suburban wine country — a 30-minute drive from the city that puts visitors at Lynfred Winery, one of Illinois's oldest and most established producers. Lynfred's sprawling production facility and retail space in downtown Roselle has been welcoming visitors since 1975, producing more than 50 wines across every imaginable style.
The northern Illinois wine trail extends beyond Lynfred into Kane, McHenry, and Lake counties — farm wineries and tasting rooms serving the Chicago metro's 10 million residents who represent the Midwest's largest wine market. For Chicago-based wine travelers who want a quick wine country fix without a multi-hour drive, this corridor is the answer.
