Somm Slam at Oak & Reel

On Saturday, July 18th, Oak & Reel invites you to their Milwaukee Junction eatery for a fun evening of delicious food, exemplary wine, witty banter, and friendly competition. Oak & Reel sommeliers, Melissa Wilson and Bruce Felts, will compete against SheWolf sommelier Dan Reinisch for entertainment and bragging rights. The winner will take home the coveted “Golden Bottle,” made special for Oak & Reel’s Somm Slams. Two-starred Michelin chef and Oak & Reel owner Jared Gadbaw has created a decadent five-course menu featuring ingredients that highlight the peak of the season. Guests will enjoy two wine pairings with each of the courses, and vote for who paired it better. The first Somm Slam, hosted at the beginning of the year, sold out and saw sommelier Bruce Felts take home the coveted Golden Bottle. Tickets can be purchased on exploretock.com/oakandreel for $225/person. 2921 East Grand Boulevard, Detroit oakandreel.com
