Kincaid’s St. Paul will host a seasonal wine dinner featuring Willamette Valley Vineyards wines for an upcoming event, according to Eventbrite.
The evening focuses on a multi-course, chef-driven menu specifically paired with selections from the Willamette Valley region. This pairing event is being held “back by popular demand,” Eventbrite reported.
The menu begins with an amuse-bouche of smoked salmon savory choux buns paired with Oregon Blossom Sparkling Rosé. This is followed by a phyllo-crusted triple cream brie with black truffle honey and fennel pollen, served alongside Willamette Valley Vineyards White Pinot Noir.
For the main courses, guests will receive fire-grilled mojo shrimp with aguachile, pickled onions, cucumber, and radish salad, accompanied by Willamette Valley Vineyards Founders’ Reserve Chardonnay. A second entree features tenderloin au poivre with merlot beurre rouge, mushroom and asparagus blend, and crispy smashed fingerling potatoes, paired with Willamette Valley Vineyards Whole Cluster Pinot Noir.
The meal concludes with warm chocolate cake featuring raspberry coulis and toasted pistachios, served with the Métis Red Blend, Eventbrite reported.
The event highlights a region defined by its specific viticultural identity. According to willamettewines.com, the Willamette Valley is composed of more than 230 member wineries and vineyards.
The region is noted for its cool-climate winemaking, a practice established by early visionaries in the area. willamettewines.com states that the valley’s character is shaped by collaboration, humility, and a deep respect for the land.
Visitors to the area can find various experiences ranging from elevated, sit-down food and wine pairings to casual tasting rooms and urban wine bars. The region offers diverse settings, including forest-framed estates and dog-friendly patios, as noted by willamettewines.com.
Attendees of the Kincaid’s St. Paul dinner must be 21 or older to participate. Eventbrite said that the price per guest includes tax and gratuity, though all sales are final and the event is non-refundable.
