About this event
Mark your calendars for a milestone celebration: the 40th Annual Sandestin Wine Festival arrives at the Village of Baytowne Wharf, April 9-11, 2027. For four decades, this beloved Emerald Coast tradition has paired world-class wines with the irresistible backdrop of Florida's Gulf Coast — and the 40th anniversary promises to be the most memorable yet.
The festival spans a long weekend of distinct events: the Grand Wine Tasting (open to all attendees) features curated selections from acclaimed producers, while intimate celebrity chef dinners, the signature "Seas the Day" experience, a collaboration dinner with The Prisoner Wine Company, and a leisurely Farewell Brunch round out the programming. Whether you're a devoted oenophile or simply love exceptional food, great wine, and a stunning coastal setting, this weekend delivers on every level.
Baytowne Wharf is the perfect host — its charming lagoon-side village, boutique shops, restaurants, live entertainment, and world-class golf make for an immersive resort experience that extends well beyond the wine tastings. Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort offers accommodation packages that include Grand Wine Tasting tickets with a two-night minimum stay, making it easy to arrive, unwind, and savor every moment of this Gulf Coast milestone.
