Reviews for Cache River Basin Vineyard & Winery in Belknap, IL

Soooo good. The Swamp Water wine is excellent and the food was so very tasty. Owner provides a wine tasting with order of an... entrée. Right off the Tunnel Hill Bike Trail! Amazing wildlife viewing from anywhere in the winery or restaurant. Highlyrecommended if visiting Heron Pond or Cache River. Read more

We stopped in after a hike on the earlier side of the day & at first didn't find anyone. But the owner called us in as we were... getting back into the car & glad we did. Had some excellent conversation with the owner about local history & thoroughlyenjoyed the wines. We've been to a number of the local vineyards and while the tasting room wasn't the fanciest, this one hassome of the best wines (at least when it comes to dry, which is what we tasted). Highly recommend. Read more

Really good restaurant that no one seems to know about. Kind of in the middle of nowhere but worth the drive. Good food and a... wonderful waitress. Good wine made on the premises. Will be back. Read more

Great wines, nice people, and awesome food at Wineaux's. Stop by for a tasting and say hello to Jack! A very laid back spot on... the wine trail. Read more

We had a really nice time at the winery and restaurant. Jack, the owner, is a lot of fun to talk with and the wines are great... (we really liked Code Red and Cynthiana Norton)! The food at Wineaux Restaurant, on property, was also great and thelandscaping out back is really well maintained. We recognized and appreciated the thought that went into making each of thefeatures easily accessible (e.g., a number of ramps leading to lower decks and the gazebo). We stayed as part of the HarvestHost program and had plenty of room in the gravel lot for our 33 ft. motorhome. We will certainly be back next time we are inthe area. Read more

Jack is a real nice host for our stay as a Harvest Host member. He is hard of hearing so speak up. The restaurant serves up... really large, good tasting portions. Read more

A good stop if you?re in the area! The owner, Jack, is a funny and knowledgeable old man who would love to tell you the history... of the grape varietals he grows, how he chose the names for the bottles you?ll sampling, and all about his vineyard. His cat,Whine-O is such a cutie too! We sampled 4 or 5 wines and liked about half of them, and bought a bottle. Explore the grounds, ifyou have time! Read more

After a long day Scouting the trails at Jackson Falls we were looking forward to recharging our batteries and silencing the... growling hunger noises additionally experiencing the winery. Walking our tired bones up to the door, we were greeted by a signexplaining that the restaurant had experienced a good fire and was closed until the issue could be rectified. Well we slid overto the winery in hopes of there being some substance to consume. It was nice to experience the wines that were offered but wereally need to get some food. Back on the road to resolve the hunger. Read more
