Because Chicago rarely gathers around just one bottle.
2023 Windy City Red
Urban Coast wines are made exclusively for Chicago. Clean, cool-climate wines that are vibrant and full of character just like the city they're made for.
Our 2023 Windy City Red is a versatile, easy-drinking blend of Malbec, Merlot, and Marquette, made for everyday moments—from backyard barbecues to game-night takeout.

This laid-back red delivers plenty of character without trying too hard.
