Last November 14, 2014, the Marriott Hotel in Newport City opened its doors to over 1,500 passionate epicureans and bon vivants as The Grand Wine Experience celebrated its 14th record-breaking year.
Highlights of Marriott head chef Meik Bremmer’s palate playground included smoked spare ribs cooked in a John Lee Bourbon barbecue sauce and a giant paella, among many others. Making a triumphant return to the Grand Wine was fan favorite Sabor Latino, who had all the guests frolicking on the dance floor and frothing for more.
