Portlandia Vintners

Come join us on February 10, 2018 at Taylor’s Shellfish Farm in Bow, WA on Samish Bay. We’ll be pairing several wine offerings from Portlandia Pinot with simple offerings from the Puget Sound – oysters, pink sea scallops, geoduck and Dungeness crab. You might not think so, but February is the beginning of Rosé season. We will have plenty! Come for the wines, stay for the sunset and shellfish. Tickets are $75 per person (includes food, wine, and service.) Get tickets here: https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3210685

If you’ve ever had a Momtazi wine, you know that there is a strong earthy aspect to the flavors that sets the vineyard apart from most others. In the scents and tastes here you’ll find composted earth, chalk, dried leaves and black tea ahead of black cherry fruit, but those funk-soaked flavors add up to a complex and intriguing wine. – Wine Enthusiast
