We reopened on June 1st for wine tastings. However, things look a little different around here. Here’s what to expect:
Wine Tasting – just a bit different
We’ve reimagined the tasting room experience to limit contact. In addition to all mandated limits and cleaning operations, we’ve also converted our banquet room into a tasting room for added space and we’ve switched to pre-poured carafes. White wines are poured just in advance of your arrival and red wines are poured upon your arrival at Elk Cove.
Our flight changes monthly and we’ve designed a new tasting mat featuring an informative Elk Cove timeline to guide you through your flight.
Some New Faces
It’s all hands on deck at Elk Cove these days! Come by for a wine tasting and you might be served by a member of our sales team who in normal years would be on the road or hosting events for our partners in the wine trade. With sales visits to restaurants and wine distributors unlikely in the foreseeable future, these road-warriors are doing their part to keep Elk Cove running.
What are people saying about our new tasting experience?
“Making a reservation was easy and everything was taken care of as soon as we got there.” – Katie
“Social distancing measures were great and in no way affected the excellent service and hospitality that we have come to expect at Elk Cove.” – Brenna
“Such a special getaway from Portland!” – Jordan
“The charcuterie board was also excellent and went perfectly with the wines we tasted.” – Daniel
A big thanks to Katie, Jordan, Daniel & Brenna for taking a minute to write us a review and help others discover our wines.
