DETAILS: Join us for Portland Wine Week's Grand Opening Women in Wine Dinner: Who Paired it Better? This dinner features 10 Women Sommeliers paired up with 5 outstanding Maine Chefs. 5 courses + 10 wines. Two Sommeliers are paired with each Chef to present their best wine pairing with their dish to each guest. Two wines per dish. The only criteria is that all wines chosen/poured will be made by women winemakers.
Who paired it better? You’ll thoroughly enjoy figuring that out and voting for your favorites … one beautiful wine and food pairing after another. Join us for this incredible show of wine and food talent for one epic dinner outside on the Falmouth Country Club’s lush green golf course.

COST: $175 per person - Includes food, wine, tax and gratuity.
RESERVE: Tickets
You can purchase your table for two through six guests right away. ***Please purchase all tickets in one transaction for the people you’d like to sit with, as we will be unable to make changes to tables and seating charts at the event as tables will be sized and set according to party and we need to begin on time.
