It is with great sadness that I just found out that winery owner Frank Cassara passed away back in March. I met Frank last winter at the Illinois Grape Growers and Vintners Association winter conference that was held in Springfield. I was looking forward to seeing him again this year so that I could continue to tap into his Concord grape growing and wine making expertise.
