Maine Points: Portland Wine Week

Portland is a genuine foodie mecca. Bon Appetit magazine named Portland its “Restaurant City of the Year 2018” . Fine food and fine wine go hand in hand, so it’s no surprise that Portland has a vibrant community of wine enthusiasts. Among those is Sommelier Erica Archer. Erica’s company, “Wine Wise” specializes in providing wine-based experiences both here in Maine and around the world. Wine Wise recently celebrated its 13th anniversary.

The 6th Annual Portland Wine Week 2023 kicks off on June 12th, and we are talking to Erica about it on this week’s Maine Points.
