THE SAVORY AFFAIR OFFERS
 THE WINE-THEMED TRIP OF A LIFETIME

Personalized Tours Provide Exclusive Access to
the Best of Napa Valley


East Greenwich, RI:  The Savory Affair, New England’s premier event planning and design firm, just announced the availability of an extraordinary food and wine travel experience.  Combining the unparalleled service of The Savory Affair with the vineyard connections and wine knowledge of sister-company, The Savory Grape, this trip offers a personalized, behind-the-scenes look at the epicurean world of Napa Valley, California.
