Our History
Willow Ridge Vineyards & Winery is located on a 150-year-old family farm in Westervelt, Illinois, where it has become a beloved part of the community. On August 7th, 2024, Sydney and Bill Linville, a father/daughter duo, became the proud new owners of this beautiful winery. We are deeply grateful to Scott and Dodie for their exceptional work over the years and for their ongoing support during this transition. As they carry on the tradition of winemaking, we are excited to continue building upon the legacy of Willow Ridge, while also introducing new experiences for visitors. Today, Willow Ridge stands as a picturesque destination, offering award-winning wines, a Tuscan-inspired tasting room, breathtaking vineyard views, and private event rentals.
