Visit all nine Indiana Uplands Wine Trail members for a delicious wine and cheese pairing. At Turtle Run, we'll be sampling Kenny's Country Cheese, made just a few hours away in Kentucky. Why does cheese go so well with wine? Simple! Tasting wine strips proteins off the tongue, thereby deadening the sensory effect. Cheese replaces those proteins.
