Presented by our Portland Sommelier Matthew Carter and Salty's on the
Columbia, we invite you to come celebrate our luck in geography! Situated
on the banks of the Mighty Columbia, we will present local and amazing
Pinot Gris producers, fresh local Northwest seafood and other local
backyard ingredients. We bring them together on Thursday, April 22 at
6 p.m. for our first ever Panoramic Pinot Gris celebration. If you were
here in September for our Panoramic Pinot Noir celebration, you'll know
this event is not to be missed.
Poured by the winery themselves are wine tastings from ten Oregon
producers including:
The producers will provide Salty's guests with remarkable wine purchase
discounts (for one night only). They'll be ready to chat you up about
the process, passion and perfection of Oregon Pinot Gris. Last, but
not least, you'll be able to nosh on appetizers that pair perfectly
with Pinot Gris, like Dungeness crab, smoked duck, trout, cheese and
more, courtesy of Salty's Executive Chef Dana Cress.
So come sip and savor Pinot Gris for only $29 per person while soaking
in the magnificent sights of the mighty Columbia River (we're hoping
for a sunset like the one pictured here). Door prizes include Salty's
gift cards, Salty's T-shirts, shot glasses, Salty's Blackening Spice,
bottles of wine and more. The cost is only $29 per person (you must

Winter brewer’s dinner in Portland is with BridgePort Brewing
Co.
PORTLAND - The specialty beer movement in the Pacific Northwest began
in 1984 when Richard and Nancy Ponzi, a local wine-making family, teamed
up with brewer Karl Ockert, graduate of the University of California
at Davis’ Malting and Brewing Sciences program, to establish the
600-barrel Columbia River Brewery. Setting up shop in a three-story,
century-old former rope factory (the historic Portland Cordage Company
Building), in Portland’s industrial NW neighborhood, they founded
what is better known today as BridgePort Brewing Company, Oregon’s
Oldest Craft Brewery™, and a pioneer of Oregon State’s craft
brewing revolution.Today, BridgePort Brewing Company is one of the top
specialty brewers in Oregon, crafting over 100,000 barrels per year.
BridgePort’s emphasis on producing quality and innovative ales
has provided it with an international following and numerous awards.
Please join us Thursday, January 28 at 6:30 p.m. for our winter brewer’s
dinner with Salty’s Chef Dana Cress, Sommelier Matthew Carter
and Head Brewmaster Karl Ockert. They will talk about how our dishes
for each course are a divine match with each carefully crafted beer.
