Oregon is pretty far away (on the other side of the country, in fact) so if you weren’t planning a trip to the West Coast this fall, that’s okay — winemakers from Willamette Valley are coming to Boston instead. The peeps at Patton Valley Vineyard produce sustainably-made, low-impact-on-the-land vino with a focus on Pinot Noir. They’ll be showcasing their collection throughout a five-course dinner at Meritage on Friday, October 4th with Sommelier Benjamin Oram orchestrating the evening. Executive Chef Daniel Bruce has put together a special menu of game meats (crispy quail, sumac-glazed duck breast) and favorite fall ingredients (roasted leeks, fennel confit, hen of the woods mushrooms) to pair with the pours. Dinner is $125 per person, including tax and gratuity, plus a processing fee — get your ticket here.
