In the heart of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where the city’s rich brewing history meets a burgeoning culinary scene, "Deliciously Paired" offers a unique gateway to global flavors without leaving town. Hosted at Charles E. Fromage, a respected local wine shop known for its curated selections and passionate staff, this 90-minute tasting event is far more than a simple sip-and-savor affair. It's an immersive journey through taste and culture, previewing Travel Deliciously’s scheduled trips to extraordinary destinations in 2025 and 2026.
During this carefully crafted experience, participants enjoy a selection of four internationally inspired small bites, each paired expertly with wines from Italy’s Amalfi Coast, Northern Portugal, the diverse “Old Europe” region (inclusive of Croatia, Slovenia, Slovakia, and Austria), and tropical Costa Rica. This culinary tour transports guests through vibrant flavor profiles and rich storytelling, connecting each bite and sip to the landscapes and traditions of their origins.
What sets "Deliciously Paired" apart is its intimate and engaging environment. With a group size capped at 14, the team at Charles E. Fromage guides attendees through a knowledgeable narrative on both the wines and the upcoming trip destinations. Their stories reveal cultural insights and lesser-known travel highlights, making this event a feast for both palate and imagination.
