Wine & Food pairing / Midsummer Picnic Pairings
Fri, Aug 07 – Sat, Aug 08, 2026 12:00pm - 6:00pm
3150 S Rocky Comfort Rd, Makanda, IL 62958
Wineries of the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail have paired up to create wonderful weekend of wine and food pairings. Join us for a progressive tasting along the trail and enhance your appreciation and enjoyment of our wines paired with delicious samples.
By featuring pairings at select locations for each event, we’ve created a collaborative approach that allows guests more time to relax, linger, and fully enjoy each tasting. The goal is to create a more comfortable and immersive experience while still celebrating the spirit of the Wine Trail as a whole.
With summer in full force, a relaxing outdoor picnic is just what the doctor ordered. Grab a few friends and enjoy fresh, local foods of the season with award-winning reds, whites and rose's from your favorite wineries.
