A Wine Lover’s Chicago – where to find holiday quaffs

Holidays, 2012  ____________________________________________________________

Love warm spiced wines over the holiday season. These wines are mulled with sweet spices, or that have spices added. They also might include touches of citrus fruits.

Warm these holiday wines to a cozy temperature, not to a boil, and serve! Here are a couple Chicagoland wineries that offer scrumptious holiday quaffs, plus places to find them around Chicago.
