South Walton Wine Festival 2017
Apr 27, 2017, to Apr 30, 2017
Wine Isn’t Just a Thing – it’s Everything
Chan Cox and his impeccably knowledgeable team at Wine World in Northwest Florida have spent decades cultivating relationships with the best winemakers in the world, such as the renowned Peter Mondavi, Jr., who assisted Chan with the launch of Sandestin Wine Festival in the 1980s and helped kick off the new festival in 2013. Today, the South Walton Beaches Wine & Food Festival features more than 800 bottles of wine to taste due to the relationships with the Mondavi family and many other prestigious vintners from around the world.
South Walton Beaches Wine & Food Festival presents great wines, fine foods, world-class tasting seminars, live music from national artists, culinary celebrities, and more. It’s a weekend to escape into a lifestyle where you can be yourself, dress up look as you are, be seen, or simply lay low. Our only requirement is that you enjoy a convivial gathering at your pace and lose yourself for the weekend. Please join us!
