If you’re a lover of seafood and wine (who isn’t?), you’ll want to save a day this weekend for the 4th Annual Wine & Seafood Festival at the Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards. Every year the winery celebrates spring with live music, arts & crafts and tasty seafood specialties during this festival.
For a $2 donation which benefits The Autism Society of Greater Orlando, you can enjoy complimentary Winery tours and a tasting. Tours usually run every 15-20 minutes and begin with a 12 minute video presentation which shows the entire process of making wine – growing of the Florida grapes, the wine making process and the bottling and labeling. You’ll then tour the production area and view the spectacular vineyards where the grapes are grown and harvested. The Wine Tasting is held at the end of the tour where a selection of award winning wines ranging from dry to sweet with sparkling are usually offered. The winery tour and wine tasting lasts approximately 45 minutes.
The seafood tasting will cost an additional amount, and is sure to be wonderfully paired with some great wine. This festival is also paired with some great music! Each day live performances are held outdoors for your enjoyment. Here is the entertainment lineup for the festival:
