The 2008 Wine Tour will be Saturday November 15th!

The route is being finalized and will be set to make it easy for members from the Orlando and or East coast to attend. Come on Orlando people this will be fun!

The drive will begin at:

The Lakeridge Winery
19239 US 27 North
Clermont FL 34715
800-768-9463

Meet time is 12:00 Noon

We will spend approx 1 hour here organizing and checking out the tasting room etc.

We will depart between 1:00PM and 1:15PM

We should arrive at our next stop at approx. 3:15PM which is:

Florida Estates Winery
25241 State Road 52
Land O' Lakes, FL 34639
813-996-2113

We will spend approx 45 minutes to 1 hour here again checking out the tasting room etc.

The next and final Wine Stop will be:

Keel & Curley Winery
5210 West Thonotosassa Road
Plant City, FL 33565
813-752-9100

This stop has a Happy Hour from 5:00PM to 6:30PM (Uncorked), and live music until midnight if anyone is interested in staying that long. They have a great indoor and outdoor space with tables to seat a bunch of people (like us)! It is probably the nicest facility we will visit.

It is close to the highway (I-4) for those going home east or west and a short drive west to I-75 for anyone going north or south.

If anyone is interested in grabbing a meal there are several Plant City Restraunts to choose from:

Outback
Carrabba's
Mi Casa
Moes
Applebees
Chili's
Beef O' Brady's
Sonic Drive In
Kazbors
Pannera
Etc.

Also the Monthly Strawberry Classic Car Show is going on in Plant City from 4:00PM to 9:00PM for anyone who wants to check it out. This is in "Downtown Plant City" and always has some great cars in attendance.

We will have maps, driving directions and schedules available for everyone before we begin. Depending on the final car count we may break into several groups for the drive portion but always regrouping at each stop. The drive routes will be back roads that offer a chance to see parts of Florida many may not know exist. The routes will offer some challenging and fun driving for the S.

Each of these Winery's have tasting rooms and wines are available for purchase. Obviously we want everyone to have fun and most importantly to be safe. With this in mind designated drivers are a must. (which means you will also need a designated drinker ) We will have waiver forms outlining the rules of the road for everyone to sign.

It is a GT6. Less than a couple of hundred left in the US. It will have to be cold for me to take a car with no A/C. It may be under the knife by then. There are plans for it.
