Wine & Junk Food Pairing | Friday Night Tasting Series

Join us for Wine & Junk Food as part of our Friday Night Tasting Series—four Painted Horse wines paired with four snacks hand-selected by founder Pamela. Our wine steward, Mary, will guide you through this playful exploration, teaching you why these rule-breaking pairings actually work so you can recreate them at home—held in the privacy of our Cellar Room with just 14 guests for an intimate evening.

This evening is perfect for:

• Couples ready to shake up date night with something more fun than the usual dinner-and-a-movie

• Partners who want permission to pair good wine with the snacks they actually eat (without guilt or judgment)

• Anyone who secretly loves junk food but thinks wine pairing has to be serious and sophisticated

• Friends planning a night out that's both Instagram-worthy and one-of-a-kind.

Here's What Your Evening Will Look Like

Arrive early to browse the tasting room, wander the vineyard, meet Dandelion, our baby cow, Pedro the goat, and the horses.

At 6 pm, settle into our cozy Cellar Room where soft lighting and an intimate atmosphere set the tone. Mary, our wine steward, guides you through four Painted Horse wines paired with four junk foods.

You'll discover why these pairings actually work brilliantly (salt, fat, acid, sweet—it's all science), gaining the confidence and stories to pair your favorite wine with your go-to guilty pleasures. With just 14 people in the room, there's space to laugh and debate which pairings are your favorite.

What's Included

• 90-minute guided tasting with Wine Steward Mary (6-7:30 pm)

• 4 Painted Horse wines paired with 4 junk foods hand-selected by Pamela

• The permission to break wine rules

We're keeping this intimate at just 14 seats so everyone can savor each pairing without feeling rushed. Our Friday Night Tasting Series fills up fast—couples and friend groups claim these evenings as their go-to ritual, and Wine & Junk Food rotates every 3 weeks (just 4 times during the full series).

Never thought wine and junk food could go together? Perfect. Mary makes this approachable and genuinely fun—some of our favorite moments happen when guests discover why a pairing works (or passionately defend their unexpected favorites) and leave with easy stories to recreate at home for game nights, girls' nights, or lazy Fridays on the couch.
