Join us for an afternoon on the waterfront deck at Pal’s with Monument Wine Company, a small Portland winery making sincere, thoughtful wines with a clear point of view. Monument grew out of years spent in wine retail and in friends’ cellars, and that direct, personal approach still comes through in the bottles: honest wines, made carefully, without a lot of adornment.

For this event, the winemaker will be on hand pouring and spending time with guests throughout the afternoon, making it feel more like a conversation than a formal tasting. You’ll be seated on our covered patio overlooking the sailboats at Tomahawk Bay Marina, enjoying a light four-course midday meal from Pal’s designed to complement the wines and keep the afternoon moving easily. This is a good fit for people who like smaller producers, thoughtful bottles, and wines that feel grounded rather than showy.
