We are happy to bring back the Pasta & Wine Weekend this year, with the help of Barilla, who will provide the pasta for the wineries. From its founding 130 years ago to the present day, Barilla has been led by four generations of the same family. Today, three Barilla brothers – Guido, Luca and Paolo – carry on the family’s tradition and values. At the heart of Barilla is a deep belief that food is a joyful, convivial experience and a form of sharing and caring, and in everything they make, they express their commitment to bringing that experience to families around the world. Families have invited Barilla into their homes for generations, and now they are inviting them to connect at dinnertime and Share the Table. Join Barilla in making a promise to Share the Table today – it’s a great way to connect with your family and friends. For every promise made, Barilla will donate $1, up to $150,000, to Meals on Wheels Association of America. For more information, tips, and great recipes, please visit ShareTheTable.com . We'll email when updates are available so be sure to sign up to receive our eblasts.
Here is a list of wineries and a sample of some of the 2010 dishes that are being offered.
Of course we, the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, believes this is a terrific event... But don't take just our word for it! Below are some testimonials from past attendees of this annual event: "One of our favorite events is Deck the halls. Our favorite memory was at Glenora when a group of young Mrs. Clauses got out of there limo and started dancing. They even got the driver involved. We also enjoyed the Pasta and Wine weekend. Lots of food and great wine and met many new friends. Jerry"
"My wife, Dani and I participated in our first Seneca Lake Wine Trail event this past January, Pasta & Wine. We were joined by friends Kevin and Carolyn from Rochester. I left work early Friday so we could hit the trail by 1:00 p.m. We enjoyed the fact that the wineries weren't crowded, and visited 11 wineries that afternoon. We thought the pasta dishes were awesome, and gladly collected recipes from each winery. Dani has actually prepared a couple of them since then, and they are delicious. We enjoyed the fact that most of the wineries invited us to taste wines in addition to the designated pairings with the pasta. This led to our purchasing about a case and a half of wine during our afternoon adventure. One of our unique memories from this event was getting stuck in the snow at one of the wineries. It was nothing 3 people pushing and one driving couldn't handle, but makes a great topic of conversation. |
