Portugal: it’s more than Port

Located in the heart of downtown Detroit, The Statler French American Bistro promises a stroll through the vineyards of Europe with its monthly Passport to Wine Series. Attendees will experience some of the world’s most iconic winemaking regions via glass and plate. The tasting event features three courses prepared by Executive Chef Vince Brady and wine pairings selected by Joe Vicari Restaurant Group sommelier, Lisa Ribaudo. June’s stop, focusing on Portugal, is themed “It’s More Than Port,” and takes place on Wednesday, June 19, at 6:30 p.m. The table wines and diverse diets of Portugal take center stage at this three-course pairing dinner. The country’s strong Mediterranean influences add diverse favor profiles to each dish. The three-course dinner includes:  Serra Da Estrela – Chef’s cheese and meat board; Grilled Octopus Portuguese-style featuring lemon, garlic, parsley, shallots, fresh herbs; and Arroz de Pato – Portuguese rice, duck breast, garlic, saffron, fresh herbs. Tickets are $99 per person, tax and gratuity not included. To learn more, visit statlerdetroit.com. Wines and menu items are subject to change. 313 Park Avenue, Detroit  statlerdetroit.com
