The famed Star Wine List recently debuted in Florida with a star-studded (pun intended) ceremony featuring some of the state’s most celebrated sommeliers, restaurants and their wine lists. Founder and publisher Krister Bengtsson and Miami Ambassador Jacqueline Coleman hosted the event during Vinexpo America in May.
Since 2017, the vinophile chronicle has celebrated the greatest wine lists in the world, and now that includes our Sunshine State. Several Miami restaurants received gold stars for their well-curated lists. Maybe we’ll see some Palm Beach County restaurants join the ranks in the future?
Congratulations to the winners!
