The public and trade professionals alike welcomed Smith-Madrone’s Stu Smith for a wine dinner at Gracie’s in Providence, in collaboration with The Savory Grape presented by Sage Cellars. The estate-vineyard wines of Smith-Madrone Vineyards and Winery joined the Sage Cellars collection in March. Brothers Stu and Charles Smith founded the winery, located in St. Helena, California, in the Napa Valley region, in 1971. “These are wines from one of the greatest terroirs in California,” said Jesse Sgro, Owner, Sage Cellars. The intimate dinner, held on June 23, allowed guests to learn more about Smith’s winemaking process and award-winning wines while enjoying a four-course pairing dinner.
