A Spring Day of Wine Tasting and Pasta Making Makes the Perfect Gift for Your Valentine

East Greenwich, RI: The Savory Affair, Rhode Island’s premier event planning and design company, has created the perfect gift that will give the wine and food lover in your life something to look forward to all winter long.

On Sunday, April 12th, the Savory Affair will escort and host a limited number of patrons for a behind-the-scenes tour of the picturesque Jonathan Edwards Winery in North Stonington, CT. While on site, visitors will learn the art of pasta making and enjoy a 3-course lunch from award-winning restaurant Gracie’s and Ellie’s Bakery.

To accommodate those looking for unique gifts for their Valentine, The Savory Affair has made tickets available immediately for purchase.

“Give a gift that keeps giving,” stated Jessica Granatiero, owner of The Savory Affair and local wine shop favorite The Savory Grape. “Not only will they be excited to receive the tickets, they will appreciate knowing that there is an amazing, delicious light at the end of the snowy, winter tunnel. Not to mention, buying two tickets in order to spend the day together is a romantic gesture that will not be forgotten.”

The adventure includes:

· Round-trip transportation provided by Arrow Prestige. (The group will depart at 10 AM from a location in East Greenwich & return there by 4:30 PM.)

· You’ll then arrive at 11 AM at the winery where the group will be welcomed to this idyllic setting with a glass of wine. Then visit the barrel room with Chef Manny of Gracie’s where you’ll learn the art of making pasta, specifically Cavatelli, through a live demonstration.

· In the barrel room, enjoy a three course lunch from Gracie’s including a salad, Cavatelli dish and sweet treats from Gracie’s sister company, Ellie’s Bakery.
