I think this place is been around since the Middle Ages – more or less. They have a tremendous deli and wine and cigars. And it smells so good. In the summer they have an outside eatery that sells brats, hamburgers, hotdogs, things like that.

You'll never see more wine bottles (from a buck to hundreds) from so many countries in your life. (Be careful--I've bumped into and broken a couple, but wasn't required to pay for them.)

If you are into Italian food this is the place to stop when you are in the Kenosha area. Walking in is like aromatherapy for cooks! The selection of cheeses, wine and pasta are great. Fun little place to explore!
Love love love Tenutas. Great beer selection, tons of wine, cheeses, fresh pasta, amazing grocery items from Europe. The tenutas brand is wonderful- we're sold on their marinara.
