You may soon have to pony up a bit more cash for your wine -- especially if you purchase it by the gallon.
Downstate Rep. Mike Bost (R) is sponsoring a proposal that would tax Illinois wine sales two cents per gallon.

More than 100 wineries are located in Illinois, most in the southern part of the state.
