It all goes by so fast, and it’s hard to believe, but it really is time to start planning for the 2017 Newport Mansions Wine & Food Festival. It’s our favorite wine related event of the year, and we certainly expect this year to be no different. The sequence of events is very similar to last year, although there will undoubtedly be some wrinkles here and there. The wine and food selections will change up a bit as well. At the Vintner’s Dinner this year you will be taken ‘around the world’ with food and wine. The Grand Cru Dinner takes on a Burgundian flavor, as opposed to last year’s Bordeaux focus. As for the seminars, they have yet to publish the exact list, but last year’s
were the best this event has ever held. This really is a first class wine and food weekend.
It will all unfold in September, stretching from Thursday, September 21st through Sunday, September 24th. There is so much to do, and you can learn about all of it at their website: http://www.newportmansions.org/events/wine-and-food-festival.
We’ll do a more in depth preview as it gets closer. We’re certainly not suggesting you look past your summer fun, and there are almost four months between now and then. Still, it’s time to at least put it on the calendar. It’s on ours.
See you there.
A votre santé!
