Off the Beaten Path: Florida Vineyards and Wineries

Let’s be honest: Tallahassee is no Napa Valley. Due to the climate, the sweet muscadine grape is featured at most vineyards in Florida. But, if you are looking for a quick excursion for a little wine tasting and grape stomping, there are a few options within driving distance of the Capital City:

Chautauqua Vineyards and Winery in DeFuniak Springs

Monticello Vineyards and Winery in Monticello

San Sebastian Winery in St. Augustine

If you’d rather grab a great bottle in town, The Wine House on Market Street carries hand-selected, low-production wines, and maintains a record of purchases and preferences.
