To keep current on all events, even weekday specials, please be sure to check our Calendar regularly!
Go directly to: Friday. Saturday. Sunday.
Saturday is December 13th. Why is that special? Because the date, when written numerically is 12-13-14. This won’t happen again for 89 years, until January 2nd, 2103 (1-2-3).
If that seems rare and special (or at least numerologically significant), that is not all that is rare and special this Saturday:
Riverhead is hosting their 15th annual Holiday Bonfire.
Harbes Vineyard is throwing their first annual Holiday Fair (on Sunday, too).
Sannino Bella Vita Vinyards is having an instructional-tasting-creation wine event. Participants will learn the art of blending wine before creating their own custom blend.
The Eat, Drink, Be Sparkling event continues at Sparkling Pointe with dessert. Stop by anytime in the afternoon for pie and sparkling wine.
Touch of Venice is having a 5-course wine dinner featuring the voices of Belle Voci: Kathryn Zukowski and Dana Kowalsick.
The North Fork may not be a hub of activities and events this weekend, but as you go about your holiday shopping remember to shop local. A bottle of Long Island wine, growler of Long Island beer, or restaurant gift certificate is an amazing gift to give or receive. It also isn’t a bad idea to stop into a winery, brewery, or restaurant while you’re out shopping to enjoy some much needed downtime. It’s certainly a better way to spend your afternoon than being on a checkout line!
There is still so much going on, fewer events, but they are much more exciting!
