Indulging the Senses at the Tallahassee Wine and Food Festival

Growth is an indicator that an event is still growing strong. And even though a number of craft shows had less attendance last year, the annual Tallahassee Wine and Food Festival had around 750 attendees. It has become Tallahassee's premier event, presented by the First Commercial Insurance Company. It continues to go on, and this year, we expect the events to be sold out once more.

The festival begins with a Wine Dinner on the first night. It features an elegant cocktail reception, a live auction, and of course, the wine dinner itself. Get to enjoy a full course accentuated by an array of Italian wines. We will also have celebrity auctioneers (to be revealed at a later date!) that will rally the bids on the wide array of auction items.

One of the events featured is a cooking class that is hosted by an internationally recognized chef. Guests who sign up to join will have the opportunity to choose one class from a list of different courses that relate to French cuisine. You'll be able to enhance your skills in cooking by learning a few new tricks from the masters themselves. Afterwards, you can enjoy a fabulous brunch and a cooking presentation by the celebrity chefs. Cookbooks are also available for purchase around the event.

Do you have an interest in wine? You can learn from the best in the business, and attend wine classes wherein you can learn how to cook with it, taste it, and make your own from the most advanced connoisseur. You'll sample selected wines from "Down Under", including 200 assorted wines from all around the world.

Lastly, you'll be inspired by fine dining and wine tasting, and you'll get to complement these sensations by feeding your other senses. Have a look at the craft shows, and see unique and marvelous works screened by jurors.
