Midwest Wine Country Weekend Getaways

Enjoy the Midwest's growing wine scene with a scenic drive or overnight stay in one of the region's thriving wine areas.

Midwest wineries: Take your pick

Hundreds of wineries dot the Midwest countryside, perfect destinations for an afternoon outing or quick weekend getaway. The next slides highlight some of our favorite wineries in seven Midwest states, plus suggestions for a great place to stay and another activity in the area.

Virtually all Midwest wineries offer tastings; some also can arrange tours of vineyards or winemaking operations. Check before you go for times and prices. Many wineries also host music festivals, wine dinners, harvest festivals and other special events.

Most of the state winery websites (see the links on the following slides) have wine trail maps so you can plot a scenic drive covering two or more vineyards.
