This Night Is Sparkling

Nov. 11, 2023

MAWBY Vineyards of Suttons Bay has been celebrating its 50th anniversary this year, culminating in a special event at the historic Bay Theatre on Thursday, Nov. 16. A Sparkling Evening with MAWBY dives into the history of the winery, from the early days of planting vines, to how the iconic Sex got its name, to where the bubbles will be flowing for the next 50 years. Founder Larry Mawby and current owners Mike and Peter Laing (also of big LITTLE Wines) will talk with Interlochen Public Radio’s news director, Peter Payette, about the past, present, and future of the winery. Event tickets are $29, which includes a glass of wine and popcorn. (Can all movies come with that combo?) A social hour starts at 6pm at the theater, with the event to follow at 7pm. Tickets can be purchased on MAWBY’s website: mawby.wine. Cheers!
