Destin Charity Wine Auction Foundation has announced the return of Harvest Wine & Food Festival to South Walton on the new dates of October 13-16, 2022.

Tickets to all 2022 festival events are on sale now at HarvestWineandFood.com. Proceeds from the festival benefit DCWAF’s mission of helping children in need in Northwest Florida.

DCWAF supports 15 children’s charities working to tackle homelessness, food insecurity, medical care, and more in the local community.

The 2022 festival weekend will open with two nights of wine and spirits dinners hosted in private homes and restaurants throughout South Walton. The festival’s signature event, the Grand Tasting, will be held on Saturday, October 15 on WaterColor’s Cerulean Park.

“Guests will once again be welcomed to WaterColor for an afternoon of epicurean excellence featuring tasting stations from world-class wineries, as well as culinary stations manned by celebrity chefs from some of the best restaurants along the Gulf Coast and throughout the Southeast,” wrote DCWAF in a press release.

The weekend concludes with a cocktail brunch hosted by the men behind the Agave Road Trip podcast. Guests are invited to join Lou Banks as he leads them on a journey through agave spirits. Hosted in a private 360 Blue home in WaterColor, guests will take part in a short tequila tasting seminar before enjoying delicious brunch fare by Chef Phil McDonald of Black Bear Bread Company along with craft cocktail pairings by Better Together Beverage and 818 Tequila.

A silent auction featuring rare wines, luxury trips, and staycations will be available virtually Thursday, October 13 at 9am CST through Sunday, October 16 at noon CST. A full list of this year’s headliners and schedule of events can be found at www.harvestwineandfood.com.
