About this Event
Set sail for an unforgettable evening on the water as we bring the flavors, stories, and spirit of Italy to life—Vichino’s style.
Join us for our Tour of Italy Wine Tasting Sunset Cruise, led by Italian native and wine import rep Dino, who will guide you through a hand-selected lineup of wines from some of Italy’s most celebrated regions. From north to south, coast to countryside, each pour tells a story—of tradition, terroir, and passion.
As we cruise through the beautiful waters of Estero Bay, you’ll enjoy a curated tasting experience featuring a variety of Italian wines (5 pours), thoughtfully chosen to showcase the diversity of Italy’s wine culture. Dino will share insider knowledge, regional insights, and a few personal stories that make this journey even more special.
Your experience also includes one of Vichino’s signature charcuterie pairings, featuring our famous pretzel nuggets alongside meats, cheeses, and fruit—perfectly matched to complement the wines.
And of course, the grand finale: a breathtaking Southwest Florida sunset. As the sky lights up and the music turns up, the vibe shifts from educational to celebratory—sip, laugh, and maybe even dance your way back to shore.
Whether you're a seasoned wine lover or just looking for a fun and unique night out, this is more than a tasting—it’s an experience.
Limited seating. These cruises sell out fast—reserve your spot and come aboard for a night you won’t forget. 🍷🌅
