Portofino’s 55th Anniversary

The acclaimed experiential dinner series, returns for the fifth year. The series celebrates local food, spirits and community with collaborative multi-course dinner. Between courses, diners will hear interesting stories on heirloom history and botanical trivia (with prizes!) interwoven with tasting notes on lush wines and tomato-inspired dishes.

Created and curated by David and Barbara Hunsaker of Village Garden RVA, Summer Supper Somm is a roving celebration of flavor, fun and fellowship. Events feature pairings from many of Virginia's finest wineries and beautiful specimen heirlooms from the Hunsaker's more than 400 varieties. Noted local artist Molly Reeder was commissioned to create the artwork to promote this year's series, which will be sold to raise funds for the series' adopted charity, RVA SCAN (Stop Child Abuse Now). Since inception, the series has raised over $10,000 in support of SCAN's mission to aid children in need. Village Garden RVA and the Ashland Feed Store also collaborate to plant and tend the gardens at SCAN's Circle Pre-School.

The price of the dinner is $85 including tax and gratuity
The wine pairing option is $55 including tax and gratuity
