The Sanford Wine Company stands out as one of Sanford Florida's unique venues that add to Sanford's historic downtown charm. Enjoy some vintage fun with a quiet glass of wine or join the party for an entertaining social evening.
The Atmosphere is clean and comfortable, cozy but not too intimate for large groups. The frigid air makes this one of my favorite cool spots to pull up a laptop and "work" during the hot evenings (The Sanford Wine Company provides Free DSL Wireless connection). Outdoor seating is nice for smokers and especially pleasant during the milder months.
Service from Ken, Debra and Anne is the excellent 5 star personable service you can only experience when the owners are passionate about their products and love to see their patrons share in their enthusiasm.
Friendliness - I think I covered that with the "Service" but I have also had many conversations with other patrons while enjoying a glass of wine. It's just a very comfortable place to strike up a conversation with whoever is in there.
Entertainment - the block parties with live bands, cookouts, wine samplings and pairings. There's a little or a lot of entertainment depending on your preferences and always a good value. Check www.sanfordwinecompany.com for the event that suits you.
Drink Variety - I can't seem to get past the white wines but Ken and Debra now know what my taste are so they've successfully introduced me to some new favorites. I see a review for "Valley of the Moon" Chardonnay in the near future - (i could have said "in the stars", but i didn't. Another glass and I might have :)
Prices are what you would expect - it all depends on what your taste are. Sampling is part of the experience and the service that The Sanford Wine Company is becoming known for so don't be shy about sampling. It's a great way to find out what you like.
As far as I'm concerned The Sanford Wine Company hung the moon when it opened - which they sell to me by the glass or by the bottle.
