Your local Venice winos are never more excited than when there’s a wine-related event in Venice or its surrounding areas! And this time of year, they really start to add up. 🍷 Here are a few worth noting right now!
🍷 Event: Rumours Wine Bar Wine Tasting
Date(s): Saturday, November 8, at 2pm OR 4:30pm
Location: Rumours Wine Bar, Englewood
The Deets:
Join the Rumours tasting to enjoy 4 Italian wines in this tasting event! They offer two seatings (at 2 or 4:30pm) which is great if you want to hit the beach in the early afternoon and THEN head to the tasting. You do have to call for a reservation, so be sure to do so to save your seat!
What We Love About It:
We love Rumours! It’s such a cozy spot (and there is plenty of parking)! Leann and Patrick are fabulous, and their tastings are always fun.
Tickets / Access:
See this and all of the happenings at Rumours here. (Expert Tip: Be sure to check out their SINGO event coming up on the 20th!)
🍽️ Event: Côté France Wine Pairing Dinner
Date(s): Wednesday, November 12, at 5:30pm
Location: Downtown Venice — Côté France Restaurant
The Deets:
This is one of Venice’s favorite recurring wine dinners at an incredible French restaurant right in downtown Venice. Enjoy a four-course meal, each paired perfectly with a complementary wine. It’s elegant, intimate, and oh-so-French.
What We Love About It:
The food and the wine — obviously! The staff is wonderfully accommodating, and they’ll happily adjust for food preferences if you call ahead. Plus, the location is perfect for a post-dinner stroll through our awesome downtown.

🍇 Event: Wellen Park Wine Festival
Date(s): Saturday, November 15
Location: Downtown Wellen Park
The Deets:
The second annual Wellen Park Wine Festival is back and bigger than ever! Sample wines from dozens of vintners, enjoy small bites from local restaurants, and sway to live music under the beautiful Florida sky. And if you’re new to wine (or just love learning), there’s even a morning Wine 101 session.
What We Love About It:
The festival vibe! Great wine, great weather, and a fun, social crowd. Plus, we love that they offer a Designated Driver ticket option so everyone can enjoy safely.
Tickets / Access:
Tickets go fast — grab yours here before they sell out!
And if you know of an upcoming event, let us know! We do our best to keep our eyes out, but we may absolutely miss something worth sharing (and attending, of course! 😂).
