This is a small quiet winery a few miles off of Interstate 70. I have been visiting for a decade, and appreciate the quiet atmosphere. They have flights, so you can sample before you buy a bottle. There are snacks like cheese, nuts and meat, to purchase in a cooler if you are hungry. There are also plenty of beverage choices if you do not wish to have wine, and milk and juice for kiddos if you are visiting with your family. I have always felt comfortable walking in with my kids. We often stopped here on our way from Indianapolis to St. Louis and stretched our legs. It is also close to a beautiful covered bridge, so i t makes pulling off the interstate a nice experience to pair the winery and bridge together. I feel like the wines are a combination of excellent flavor and yet affordable for yourself or as a gift. This year they has a wine called "Let it Snow" with edible glitter that made a beautiful swirl. read more

Cameo Vineyards - Wine flight - Wineries Near Me - Greenup, Illinois

Lovely vineyard nestled in Cumberland County close to the interstate. We really enjoyed the ambiance sitting on the porch overlooking flowers, grapevines, and nature. The owners were very friendly and helpful. I tried a flight of wine and a slushy, my husband had the Canoe. We left. with a bottle of Canoe and cherry wine. If you want food you can bring your own or they had cheese and crackers for sale. read more

This little locally owned small vineyard and winery is a wonderful place to visit. It was recommended by our friends as a must stop during our visit to Greenup, IL. Located just down the road from the Cumberland County Covered Bridge they over a very nice selection of locally made wines. you can sample five different ones for $10 and if you purchase wine it's only $5. We sampled 5 different ones and chose 3 white and 2 red. They were all delicious, but we only bought a bottle of Let it Snow, Country Concord and Day Drinkin. It is not that far off the I-70 so if you are nearby I highly recommend you stop and give them a try. read more

We tried a lot of different wineries in the area and this one had the best wines by far. They are the oldest and most established as well. Very nice tasting room. The tastings were in plastic cups, so that was a bit of a turn off. The wine probably would seem better if served in glass like most other places. read more

Great wine, atmosphere is great. Service was horrible. The server was more interested in visiting outside with a group on the porch than waiting on his customers inside. We bought cheese, meat and crackers with the idea of spending time there. We were told we could not buy bottles of wine but by the glass only. Between the flies diving into our drinks ( we were told there was nothing they could do about them), Pouring out 2 drinks with dead flies before we were given coasters to cover our glasses and then waiting to get drinks from the server visiting outside, we were less than impressed with our afternoon there. read more

What an amazing hidden gem. Best place ever for a quiet Sunday lunch and a glass of wine. Pack a picnic and enjoy a lazy afternoon. The kissingbridge Reising is superb. read more

Cameo Vineyards - bottles of wine on shelves in a wine cellar - Wineries Near Me - Greenup, Illinois

I found a new favorite!! I love this winery and the wines. The front porch is beautiful and the view is fantastic. I wish I had the time to sit on the porch and drink a glass of wine. It was the perfect day for it. I tried several of the wines and liked most of them but my favorite was the Powder Hill White which is make form Vignoles. The owner was super friendly and took the time to explain each wine to us. Walking into the winery felt warm and inviting. I will certainly be back when I am in the area next time. read more

What a delight! We just stopped at this winery on our way through road-tripping from MN to FL! The character was so beautiful and unique. Sonja, the gal working was super sweet, friendly, & welcoming! Wines were super tasty and reasonably-priced. This winery has a fun story of its past historical start. We can't wait to return one day for another visit! read more

Nice little local winery. The owners are hard workers and make all the wine and do the service. It's not a place to sit and get trashed drinking bottles with friends. Wine is by the glass and bottles can be purchased carry out due to their liquor license. It's a nice place to go on a date and have a glass of wine. I enjoy the fireplace inside during the colder months or sit enjoy sitting outside spring-fall. read more

A little disappointed. Couldn't buy a bottle and drink it there. Had to buy by the glass. $3 charge for a sampling , we only sampled one kind, the wine bottled today, and then paid $6.50 for a half a glass of wine. read more

Wines good service is crap. Order online instead

We travel across I-70 between Oklahoma and Ohio in the fall for every Ohio State Home Football Game. Highlight of the trip is our stop each time at Cameo Vineyards - We have several favorites and always look forward to what is new. The owners are friendly and their place is beautiful. read more

Cameo has a good selection of wines at a reasonable price. Their facility is very comfortable setting. The only resevations I have with them is that they will not sell you wine by the bottle to drink on the premises, only by the glass. Any of the other wineries that I have visited in Illinois lets you buy by the bottle to drink. read more

I would never visit this place again. I bought a party bus for my wife's 40th birthday and called ahead to make sure they could accommodate us. When we got there the owner ran out and said we were not welcome. When we told him we had called ahead he called us liars and told us to leave. Then he said if we wanted to pay $10 a head we could stay. Excuse me but I don't do business with people like that. Keep your crappy wine to yourself and may your business be as good as your attitude. read more

The wine here is great, as is the atmosphere. Beats the wine in Door County and in Michigan, hands-down. The proprietors are friendly and knowledgeable. They don't allow party buses, so the setting remains tranquil and perfect for an afternoon of relaxation with friends. If you go during the summer, take a picnic basket, buy a bottle of wine, and either sit on the porch or have lunch in the vineyard. During the winter, relax in front of the fire. Can't beat it. read more

Service is crap? Not at all, Kevin. They were extremely friendly. The wines are distinctive and the River's Edge is especially nice.
