Check Out the Beautiful Flagler Beachfront Winery
What could be better than sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean while sipping on locally made Cabernet? At the Flagler Beachfront Winery, one of their tag lines is “waves and wine,” and that’s exactly what you’ll find. Plus, yummy treats, frozen slushies, and a laid-back atmosphere. It’s a great addition to your list of things to do in Flagler Beach, whether you’re stopping in for a quick taste or settling in for a leisurely afternoon tasting through the selection.
Here are six things to know about the Flagler Beachfront Winery before you visit:
- Owner and winemaker, Ken Tarsitano, is as enthusiastic as they come about making wine and sharing it with his guests. If you’re lucky enough to stop in when he’s on shift, you’ll have the opportunity to talk wine and get some insider knowledge about cultivating grapes in a tropical climate. His go-to glass: their white “Elation” blend.
- There’s a wine or beverage for any palate at the Flagler Beachfront Winery. If you prefer a more traditional dry red, go for the “Allure” (cabernet blend) or the “Corduroy” (syrah blend). For those who prefer wines with residual sugar, there’s a mid-sweet Riesling or the “Riptide,” made from Florida-grown grapes, for a fruit bomb.
- Adult slushies! This is fun in a glass, or the Flagler Beachfront Winery-branded insulated tumbler. The tumbler is the best vessel to enjoy these fruity grown-up drinks to keep them icy cold in the Florida sunshine. The menu of wine slushies runs the gamut, from watermelon, raspberry, pina colada, and much more!
- The Flagler Beachfront Winery offers a large selection of meat and cheese boards, perfect for sharing with friends or your special someone. There are sweet and savory options like brie with fig jam or feta with red pepper spread. Italian cured meats, olives, and toasty, warm baguette are excellent additions to the boards. Join them on Sundays for their freshly popped popcorn.
- The Flagler Beachfront Winery is also home to the Old A1A Distillery, a craft spirits operation run by the same owners, Ken and Kelly Tarsitano. Alongside their wines, you can now sip on small-batch rum, vodka, and agave spirits. And yes, some of those spirits have made their way into the slushie menu too, for a fun extra twist on your frozen treat.
- The patio at the Flagler Beachfront Winery is the perfect outdoor space to sip wine and take in the ocean views. Pop under the shade of a bright red umbrella and sit back to listen to the waves. Or if you’re lucky, some live music from a local entertainer.
