Take a peek behind the scenes with VIE at this year’s Wine, Women, & Shoes Vintner Dinners. Guests purchased tickets to attend the Vintner dinner of their choice, with all proceeds supporting our region’s only fully professional symphony orchestra, Sinfonia Gulf Coast. An exclusive dinner was prepared in a luxury home in South Walton or in a private dining room of one of the area’s award-winning restaurants.

Guests sipped on wines from some of the country’s preeminent vineyards, including Aloft by Mondavi, Arbios, Blackbird, Ferrari Sparkling, Gabrielle Collection, Justin, Charles Krug, Peju, and Praxis, while also enjoying delicious meals prepared by A-list chefs, all in support of a noble cause.
