The story

About this festival.

Pair Perfectly: A Food & Wine Pairing Workshop is a hands-on food and wine event held in Richland, Washington on June 4, 2026. General admission tickets are $106. This workshop focuses on learning wine through flavor pairing rather than large-scale tasting, with attendees building a custom charcuterie box to take home. The event takes place in Columbia Valley, a region known for Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Chardonnay. The intimate format emphasizes direct engagement with pairing principles rather than sampling across multiple wineries. Attendees should bring an appetite and plan to spend the afternoon learning how food and wine interact on the palate. VIP and designated driver pricing are pending confirmation on the organizer's website.
