Evening at Seven Mile Winery, just off Somerville-Jacksonburg Road in Middletown, Ohio, feels like a small-town launch point into slow, deliberate craft. The Pour, Sip & Savor event hosted by Stillwater Fragrance Collective (formerly petals & wicks) brings candlemaking into a friendly winery setting at 3526 Somerville Jacksonburg Rd. Middletown, Ohio 45042. Over a guided two-hour session you’ll blend premium fragrance oils, select a mini pumpkin mold or vessel, and hand-pour a custom candle to take home.
The scene is a working winery: low rows of grapevines, weathered oak barrels, and a gravel courtyard where a pizza truck fires up while guests sip a glass of Seven Mile wine. Key features of the experience are tactile and visual—warm wax, polished pouring pitchers, the scent bar of fragrance blends, and the winery’s patio that frames the gently rolling limestone hills that define this pocket of Butler County. Native buckeye and maples line the drive; songbirds and the occasional white-tailed deer are part of the evening soundtrack during warmer months.
This event is ideal for couples, friends, and small groups up to 25, an easy distraction from screens and a creative way to connect. Stillwater Fragrance Collective supplies instruction and materials; your ticket includes one hand-poured candle. While wine and pizza are available for purchase, the workshop itself centers on learning basic candle-pouring technique—measuring wax, tempering temperature, and centering a wick—so even first-timers leave confident and with a glowing memento.
Practical details matter: reserve early—seats are limited—and arrive at the listed meeting point for check-in. The timing makes this an approachable after-work outing or a weekend evening activity when local light softens across the vines. The experience complements a visit to the wider outdoor area: short drives from Middletown lead to river trails and small conservation parks, making the night an easy add-on to a day of hiking or cycling.
Seven Mile Winery becomes more than a backdrop; it’s a gathering place where craft and community meet. The winery’s open-air vibe and the tactile rhythm of pouring wax create a relaxed learning environment that highlights the region’s agricultural roots. Whether you come for a low-key date night, a group celebration, or a hands-on pick-me-up, Pour, Sip & Savor offers a uniquely local evening—part craft class, part vineyard social—rooted in a place where land, flavor, and scent converge.
Expect a friendly, unhurried pace: instructors explain safety around hot wax, share scent-combination tips, and demonstrate simple decorative finishes. The workshop is approachable for teens and adults. Bring a jacket for the patio and an appetite for pizza and conversation. Book early in the season when evenings are drier, and pair the workshop with a winery tour or a sunset walk along the creekside.
