Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant
This winery and restaurant is located at 4850 Big Island Drive. During my visit, the servers were fantastic, wine great and the food fantastic.
I think this may be a chain, but I’m not sure because this is the only one I have visited. Definitely worth the trip!
Vine + Craft
Next on the list is Vine + Craft, located Southside at 4320 Deerwood Lake Pkwy. Really fun place for a wine tasting. My visit was part of an event that included food as well as the out of this world wine tasting.
San Sebastian Winery
Nestled in the historic city of St. Augustine, which is roughly 30 minutes or so south of Jacksonville off I-95, is the San Sebastian Winery.
This winery has been producing remarkable wines for over 20 years and is one of my must-visit stops every time I am in St. Augustine.
The best part? Complimentary wine tastings at the rooftop bar, where you can savor the panoramic views of St. Augustine from the rooftop restaurant while sipping on their finest wines.
Flagler Beachfront Winery
A bit farther south from St. Augustine, and you will arrive in Flagler Beach. My favorite thing to do? Get a wine slushie and sit on the patio looking at the waves as they hit the shore.
Ahhhh. So relaxing! This winery is located at 611 North Oceanshore Boulevard. Seriously how can you go wrong with a wine slushie?
Island Grove Winery
This winery is actually more inland but still about an hour and 15 minutes from Jacksonville. Located east of Gainesville, they offer delicious fruit wines.
I always enjoy a small bite while there, but the wines are what bring me in. So good! Check the website for open days and hours.
There you have it. From scenic vineyards to intimate tasting rooms, Jacksonville and its surrounding areas offer a delightful wine-tasting experience for all.
Whether you’re a wine connoisseur or just looking for a relaxing weekend adventure, these wineries are the perfect way to toast to the beauty of Florida.
Uncork your next Jacksonville adventure at one of these fantastic wineries – where every sip tells a story of local flavors and Southern charm. Cheers to discovering the wine culture of the Sunshine State!
