"Share & Pair Sundays" is a campaign encouraging people to gather on Sundays to enjoy wine, food, and friends. At Portland Wine Company, we’re proud to participate in this initiative by pairing wine, food, and some of our favorite things to do in our beautiful city!
Come in Thursday-Sunday from March 23 - May 25 to enjoy a ½ glass of our featured wine and a snack for just $12. We’ll also have weekly food specials. In the spirit of “Share & Pair,” bring a friend or two (or three!).
Share & Pair for Thursday, March 27 - Sunday, March 30
The Wine: 2023 SuperGlou
SUPERGLOU, our newest “glou glou” (means chuggable in French). Made for ultimate sipping pleasure, this juicy and vibrant wine is a mix of Trousseau, Gamay Noir, Dolcetto, and Pinot Gris. Think bright, fresh, and totally irresistible—a party in a glass!
Paired Snack: Calabrese Salami
Rich, spice-infused salumi creates the perfect counterpoint to our bright, fruit-forward, eminently chuggable chilled red.
Winery Bar Food Special: Pão de Queijo (Brazilian Cheese Breads)
These small, puffy cheese breads perfectly complement the refreshing nature of our 2023 SuperGlou. Pão de Queijo offer a delightful contrast of textures—crisp exterior giving way to a chewy, elastic center—and the subtle saltiness of the cheese harmonizes beautifully with the fruit-forward character of the wine.
A Pairing to Share at Home: Meat and Veggie Skewers on the Grill
The char and caramelization from grilling creates magic when paired with our chilled red blend. The SuperGlou has enough structure to stand up to grilled meats without overwhelming more delicate vegetables.
Here are a few fun ideas for your next grilling adventure:
Coconut and lemongrass steak skewers – A little spice, a little tang, a ton of flavor!
Middle Eastern-style grilled chicken kabobs – The yogurt and paprika marinade ensure the chicken stays juicy, while the red onion provides extra caramelization and crunch.
Halloumi and vegetable skewers – Elevate your vegetable skewers with the cheesy crispy yumminess of halloumi.
Activity Pairing: Talk to the Ducks and Play Frisbee at Laurelhurst Park
In 1919, the 32-acre Laurelhurst Park was recognized by the Pacific Coast Parks Association as the most beautiful park on the west coast. We couldn’t agree more! It’s our favorite place for a picnic on a nice day…or just a stroll on any day.
The park has many different areas – paths, sports courts, an off-leash dog spot, not to mention so many types of trees – but what we love most is talking to the ducks in Laurelhurst Park Pond. So grab the fam, the dog, and a frisbee and head to this little piece of heaven in SE Portland!
