LET’S GO ON A WINE SAIL!

As part of our 15th Anniversary Celebration, we’re hosting a special series of events on the 15th of each month—all year long! Join us tonight for our 15th Anniversary Wine Sail, featuring a fantastic selection of wines from California’s Central Coast we’ve curated for this occasion. We can’t wait to pop the corks, sip, sail, and celebrate with you! Plus, it’s Father’s Day, making it an even more special occasion to celebrate.

You’re in for an unforgettable wine experience as you sail through the pristine waters of Casco Bay, with views of picturesque lighthouses, historic forts, islands, and waterways ... all while indulging in a high-quality wine with a sommelier as your guide. With comfortable seating for everyone, you can relax and fully immerse yourself in this highly-rated wine and sailing experience.

Join Sommelier Erica Archer, CWP, WSET Advanced, in beautiful Portland, Maine, for a gorgeous scenic wine sail aboard the immaculate 74’ Tall Ship Frances, expertly built by her captains and crew on Portland's waterfront. You'll explore a selection of five delicious quality wines from the diverse wine regions of California’s Central Coast that you'll love to have in your repertoire. It will be a highlight of your summer. It truly doesn’t get much better than this!

The Central Coast in California covers the long stretch of coastline from San Francisco Bay south to Santa Barbara and some of California's most famous wine regions outside Napa and Sonoma. The climate and topography vary enormously across this immense region, bringing a beautiful diversity of grapes grown and wines produced. We can’t think of a better way to showcase this than through a diverse line-up of wines poured while sailing in Casco Bay.

• Taste and learn about some delicious wines from the diverse regions of California’s Central Coast such as Edna Valley, Paso Robles, Monterrey, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Maria Valley, Santa Barbara, and Santa Cruz Mountains, etc.

• Find out what makes each Central Coast wine region unique in the styles of wine they produce.

• Discuss the Central Coast’s major grape varieties and styles worthy of your attention.

• Gain confidence in evaluating, selecting, and pairing wines and describing what you smell and taste.

• Learn what to expect from specific terms on a wine label when selecting your next bottle of wine.

• Walk away knowing a lot about wine and how regional influences impact wine styles and quality.

• Learn the basics of tasting or take your wine knowledge to the next level.

• Enjoy your delicious box of cheeses, cured meats, fruit, nuts, crackers, etc. Due to the nature of our events, we cannot accommodate food allergies, commissions, accommodations, or substitutions during these sails. You may bring your own snack if you have food allergies or hesitations of any kind.
