Along with certain weekly and month events happening throughout Oregon and Washington State, there are numerous special happenings to take note of if you like to combine wine with other activities such as socializing, eating and listening to music. You can even help out a good cause, thanks to your favorite drink, and wineries get pretty specific.
At least one does, anyway. Saturday July 31st from 12-4 in Portland, stop in at Irving Street Kitchen for Pinot Noir tasting. Twelve wineries including Anam Cara, Argyle and Elk Cove will have their offerings on hand, so save space on your wine rack. Tickets cost $35 to include a pig roast dinner along with tastings, plus live Blues music. Proceeds will benefit the Greater New Orleans Foundation. Call 503-343 9440 for information or to reserve your seat.
That same day at 6pm, Duck Pond Cellars hosts a five course tasting meal prepared by Sub Terra Restaurant. This Dundee event costs $85 ($65 for club members). Call 800-437-3213×21.
Maryhill Winery is hosting a Summer Concert Series, this July 31st (busy day, lots of choices) featuring Jackson Browne and David Lindly.
Dipping into August just a smidge, consider booking space at the Square Meal Wine and Dinenr at Arbor Brook Vineyard August 7th, 6 pm. Adam Sappington will prepare food carefully paired with wines and served in the riding arena. Your view takes in the vineyard. Watch square dancing demos then get up and try yourself, no matter what level you are at. Tickets cost $100 for club members, $125 for non-members.
