It's a fall afternoon or evening of wine in a small Lincoln Park park, with food vendors alongside, and this year is the festival's 10th. Sessions are short and capped, so it works as a start to a night out in the neighborhood, with the bars and restaurants on Lincoln and Sheffield a few blocks away.

What to expect

A fenced tasting area in Jonquil Park with wine tents and food vendors. You arrive at the start of your session and have two hours to work through your tastings. General admission sessions are capped at 600 people.
