In what will feel like a First Friday gone viral, the town of St Michaels is hosting its 2nd annual ‘Winefest’ from April 29 -May 1. It’s about wine, and so much more.
There will be pouring venues for Maryland Wines as well as those from wines from eight countries. Regional chef demos of the Chesapeake’s incomparable regional food include St Michaels Harbour Inn’s Executive chef David Hayes, Robert Morris Inn’s chef proprietor, Mark Salter, Bartlett Pear’s executive chef and owner, Jordan Lloyd, and Tilghman Island Inn’s executive chef and owner, David McCallum. There will be chef dinners, cruises, entertainment, special sales and promotions at local businesses, music, & art exhibits. Wine and beer tastings and dinner featuring signature chefs from surrounding areas will be held at several restaurants and aboard the Patriot Cruise Ship. Tastings take place at several venues conveniently located throughout town where wines will also be available for purchase.
