🍷 Corks & Forks: Our Favorite Way to Sip Through St. Augustine

If you love good wine, great food, and a little historical charm, this tour is a must. My wife and I recently joined a Corks & Forks tour with a few close friends, and it turned out to be one of the most unexpectedly delightful afternoons we’ve had in quite some time.  In short, it was a St. Augustine Wine and Charcuterie experience!

🌟 Tour Highlights

  • Visit 4 locally loved wine stops, each offering curated tastings and artisan bites
  • Enjoy seated experiences at select locations with wine pairings and storytelling
  • Explore hidden courtyards and historic streets with a passionate local guide
  • Learn about regional varietals, pairing tips, and St. Augustine’s culinary heritage

🌟 What Made It Special

  • We visited four locally loved stops, each with its own vibe and flavor profile

  • Our guide (ask for Rene!) was warm, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable—he shared stories that made the city’s history come alive

  • The weather was perfect, and somehow Rene made it feel like he’d planned it that way

  • We discovered three new spots we’d never been to before—even as locals

  • The tour felt intimate and personal, with just the right balance of indulgence and insight

💫 A Few Favorite Moments

  • At one stop, we sipped a bold red paired with a savory bite that still has us talking

  • Judi (yes, “with an I”) was our guide on a second visit—she curated the stops based on our preferences and made the whole experience feel tailor-made

  • One of our friends was celebrating a birthday, and the guide went out of her way to make it feel special—snapping photos, sharing bonus history, and even sneaking in a bourbon tasting

  • We laughed, we learned, and we left with a list of new places to revisit
