Agawam Hunt - Paired with Portugal Members Only Wine Dinner

Set on 130 wooded, riverside acres in Rumford, Agawam Hunt is one of Rhode Island's most storied private clubs, with a fireside clubhouse dining room full of historic charm.

Leading the kitchen is Executive Chef Mitch Mauricio. Though his background is in French cuisine, his heart has always been with his heritage and Portugal, and his specialty is taking traditional Portuguese cuisine and "Mitchifying" it. Together with his team, he turns the classic dishes of Portugal and the Azores into something entirely his own.

For this evening, Chef Mauricio and his team have created a menu that travels across Portugal, from the islands of Flores and Terceira to the Alentejo and Setúbal. Courses include nori fritters with ossetra caviar inspired by the tortas de erva-patinha of Flores, a warm fava custard with pan-roasted chouriço, charcoal-grilled Atlantic mackerel with molho de escabeche, and Alcatra da Terceira with clay-roasted beef cheek, finished with an orange malassada and limão galego curd. Each course is paired with wines from our Brands of Portugal portfolio.

This private dinner is for Agawam Hunt members. Join Chef Mauricio, his team, and Brands of Portugal for an evening of thoughtful pairings and Portuguese hospitality.
