With the weather turning colder and the holiday season drawing ever closer, pints on a patio are being replaced by pino in front of a roaring fire.
With that in mind, Savvy Company is hosting its fourth annual Sip, Swirl, Savour and Selebrate event this Thursday, Nov. 10 at the National Arts Centre. What is this alliteration-friendly evening, you ask? Well, it’s an opportunity for Ottawa’s wine lovers to join Savvy’s savvy sommeliers and 20 of Ontario’s own winemakers and wine owners in a mix-and-mingle-style event.
Here’s a peek at just some of the great wineries that will be featured:
- Angels Gate Winery
- Cave Springs Cellars
- Chateau du Charmes
- Fielding Estates Winery
- Sandbanks Estate Winery
Perhaps best of all, it’s your chance to taste and purchase some bottles that you can’t get at the LCBO. Perfect for holiday parties, gifts and or your own enjoyment on a cold winter’s night!
If you’re interested in attending Sip, Swirl, Savour and Selebrate, tickets are $65 each. (Buy four and the price drops to $50 each.) BUT … you can also win a pair of tickets right here on LTOttawa! Here’s what you need to do:
- Like LTOttawa on Facebook (or like our post of the day, if you already do.)
- Like Savvy Company on Facebook.
- You can also retweet us on Twitter to qualify.
Pretty straightforward. And we’ll let you know the winner on Tuesday evening. Happy drinking!

I had heard of this event, and it sounded amazing, but it was a tough splurge on a student budget. Just entered to win the pair of tickets.
As for a favourite Ontario wine… From the list of wineries that will be at the event, I fell in love with Generation Seven White from Château des Charmes this summer. It’s fresh and fun, and great to sip on its own or with food.
