Is Chicago a Wine City?

We’ve gifted it to someone, maybe gone to a tasting, or seen a vineyard before, but how much do we know about wine? Wine enthusiast and “Wine Convo Generator” author Chasity Cooper tells host Jacoby Cochran the best places for a tasting in the city and nearby wine trips to take. Plus, she teaches us some wine vocabulary to sound a little more like an expert the next time you go to a restaurant or your local bottle shop. 

Spots mentioned:

• Easy Does It
• Deep Red Wine Merchants
• Beautiful Rind
• Webster’s Wine Bar
• Pops for Champagne
• The Wine Goddess
• City Winery
• Chicago Winery
• Good Funk
• Figo Wine Bar
• Uvae 
• J9 Wine Bar
• Middle Brow
• Love Cork Screw
• Illinois Sparkling Company
• Plus, more in Cooper’s wine guide
