Fine wine, spirits, chocolate and live music

The Miami Fine Wine & Spirits Festival is coming this weekend, November 22 and 23, the event will take place in Peacock Park.

The festival allows consumers an opportunity to sample, buy, learn about and be entertained by all things related to fine wine and spirits. The event offers seven shows within the show: VIP Pavilion, fine wine & spirits pavilion, culinary, chocolate and dessert pavilions, live cooking demonstrations sponsored by Florida Builders Appliances, live music stage sponsored by Prohibition Restaurant Miami, pairing and tasting seminars. Beer, wine and spirits venders will offer free samples, culinary/chocolate/dessert venders offer samples at the vender discretion. There will be almost 100 booths and 80 companies at the 2 day-long event.

A unique feature of this event is the focus on fine wine and spirits with hundreds of brands to sample. In South Florida from November to April over 300 mostly culinary events take place, no other event “dials into” fine wines and spirits like the Miami Fine Wine and Spirits Festival. This is done in part with a full schedule of live cooking demonstrations and seminars featuring both cooking with wine and spirits as well as pairing wines and spirits with certain foods or chocolates. 

Another unique feature of the Miami Fine Wine & Spirits Festival is CHOCOLATE! Chocolate and dessert companies will be on hand in their own tented pavilion.

For those looking for an “all inclusive” experience the VIP Pavilion is the place. Open both days Saturday and Sunday, from 2:00 to 6:00 pm only. This area offers the VIP: 
• Free Valet Parking

“My goal is to offer consumers a great time, the opportunity to learn about wine and spirits and to do this at a great value” says show founder Mario Pi. “I am excited to be able to offer the South Florida consumer an upscale event that is not at an outrageous price.
