Wine on the deck at Pal’s
Our summer series about great wine and an easy evening by the water.
Each week we welcome a different winery or importer to pour and talk through their bottles, paired with a simple seasonal menu from our kitchen and a relaxed seat on the deck overlooking the marina.

August 25, 2026 — Ridgecrest Wines
Wynne Peterson-Nedry grew up in the vineyard, went off to learn a few things in Burgundy, New Zealand, and at UC Davis, then came home to make wine with her dad. Forty-one harvests in, Ridgecrest has plenty to talk about, and Wynne will be here to do the pouring.September 1, 2026 — Fossil & Fawn Wines
Jim and Jenny started Fossil & Fawn with 50 cases of experimental Pinot Noir and have spent the years since keeping Oregon wine from getting too serious. Jim will be here pouring the good stuff while we make one last convincing argument that summer is not over.
