Set sail into summer with an evening of effortless elegance, curated flavors, and lakeside inspiration. Join us for Sails & Sips, a guided wine tasting experience designed to transport you to the deck of your favorite boat, the edge of a dock at sunset, or a breezy al fresco dinner under the stars.

This special event features a selection of clean, refreshing wines handpicked to complement everything we love about boating season. From crisp whites and vibrant rosés to chillable reds and festive bubbles, you’ll discover the perfect pours for long afternoons on the water, light summer meals, and relaxed gatherings with friends.

As you sip, you’ll enjoy insights from Oakwood Vines, Lake Forest’s local source for thoughtfully curated, sustainably crafted wines.

To round out the evening, light bites will be served, specially chosen to complement the wines and elevate your tasting experience.

Whether you’re a seasoned wine lover or simply looking for a relaxed night out with friends, this event is the perfect way to celebrate summer in style. Bring your curiosity, your tastebuds, and your love for lakeside living.
