On our drive back home from the pumpkin patch, we came across Fiorelli Winery and decided to stop by for a drink. I'm not a wine drinker so I ordered a recommended Rose first, then a canned beer. My wife tried 2 different wines. She was happy with her choices. We didn't try the food. The bar area was cozy, and the bartender was sweet. We sat in the back after ordering. The weather was very nice so we enjoyed sitting outside. I'd love to visit again and try their food.
We purchased the upgraded tastings and were very excited to try a Florida winery but we were very disappointed. The staff and service was great but the tastings were very small and the sorbet upgrade was more like ice with a little wine flavor. It was not like any other tasting we have experienced as the wine was served in plastic glasses and the glasses were not rinsed out between the types of wines. The ambiance was nice as there was live music and we saw the Goodyear Blimp but we won't go back.
I had my wedding at Fiorelli Winery back in September and to say I had a positive experience would be an understatement. The communication from Kristin from when I first expressed interest, all the way until the day of the wedding was amazing, helpful, and prompt. All my guests were asking how I found this place because everyone was just as enamored with the scenery as my now-husband and I were when we first toured it. It's green, it's romantic, it's charming and it was perfect for our small wedding. I will forever hold Fiorelli in a special place in my heart and I'll never forget the kindness and help I received throughout the planning and execution process. I am so glad I held out for the right venue- because it doesn't get better than here
I came here for a friends birthday and we had a great time! The live music was a great artist that was dedicated even in the heat. The wine tasting was great and our guide (idk what to call them lol) was very friendly and good at explaining what wines we were tasting. It has a beautiful landscape of grapes and really was a great birthday spot. We ended up buying a few bottles, but for any wine-o's you should know these wines are made with half muscadine grapes and mixed with other grapes from other regions. Some people don't like muscadine wines, so a little disclaimer.
Nice stop in the rural area of Bradenton with outdoor seating under the oaks. Decent wine selection and nice staff.
Great place to enjoy some local musicians surrounded by the vineyards. They feature live music on the weekends. John Allen James was playing today. Enjoyed his variety of music he sang, from Poison, James Taylor, John Denver, Bob Seger and many more. Wine is decent but not going to win any awards. Definitely a great place to unwind.
What a fun place right in our back yard! The wine tasting was fun, very knowledgeable and delicious but it should definitely come with a full glass of wine at the end of the tasting. The vineyard is beautiful and fun to walk around at. I do wish they had more food. We ordered a large charcuterie box for three people and it was super small. Could barely feed one person. They do have live music on the weekends outside which was nice!
The vineyard is nice and the outdoor spaces are incredible but the staff were a little ableist to the customer experience. This was noticed when my Mrs. Walked past the register and I watched the older woman staff member from Long Island side eye her with a direct look as she passed by her without yielding to the guest. She had no tray or drinks in hand when she squeezed by. Her personality was just as rough when we ordered the flights. We proceed outside where we enjoyed listening to the singer on the stage from under the shade of the big oak tree over the outdoor sofa. The wines were just okay and nothing that we would purchase in a bottle to take home. We did walk the beautiful grounds and found the outdoor banquet building on our stroll which would be a great location for an outdoor wedding. There were even signs indicating that there was a bridal room which appeared to be a nice looking RV.
Came here a day after it had rained so the patio/outside area was not set up. There is indoor seating but it is limited. There were already a couple of groups doing a tasting inside so there was no more seating but one of the workers said she can set up a fire pit and cushions in the patio area so that we could sit outside. Staff was friendly, she let us try a sample. The other worker who set up the outside area was diligent in clearing the area and turning on the fire pit. We each got a flight which comes with 4 wines. My favorite was the blueberry wine. Overall, it was a nice, relaxing experience.
Spent a beautiful Saturday afternoon at this winery and really enjoyed it. We signed up for a wine tasting which starts on the hour and had plenty of time before. I ordered a bottle of "Chill" wine which 4 of us split. Was fun just sitting on the patio listening to live music and enjoying wine. It's a nice location with a pleasant staff. There are about 10 different wines to choose from. Great place to enjoy weather and have fun with family and friends.
We love Fiorelli Winery! Had so much fun at a Friday evening wine tasting. Our hostess Rachel was amazing! She introduced each wine to us with its background and made the tasting a blast! We especially liked the Siesta Sands white wine. The food was delicious too. We had the Caprese tomato salad, which was so fresh! Also, the tomato mozzarella pannini was delicious. We are attending the Red, White and Blueberry Festival on July 1st. Music is great, food is delicious, and we get to try different wines. So much fun! Highly recommend!
Such a gorgeous night for an outdoor concert! Rye Road gave a marvelous variety of songs, performing each one perfectly! This winery has live music every third Friday through September. There are a couple food trucks, serving snacks and ribs, etc. There's a nice selection of wines and beers. The service was very nice. Tickets were $5.00 online, and $21.40 for two adults at the door. We were happy to be surrounded by young families, with children running carefree. There were some games like Corn Hole, and a small play center for children, along with a swing set, with level they could climb around in.
My sister and brother in law planned this after thanksgiving as a nice cute activity for our family to do before watching the sunset on the beach and this was the most adorable activity I've done in a while. The drive in is so peaceful and full of life, from horses, to cows, to even GOATS! If you are a country lifestyle lover this place will definitely mark off everything in your list, it made me want to MOVE out there and have my own farm. When you get to the Winery it is very fresh around this month (you do not need to wear a jacket, I only wore a dress because I was drinking and I was not about to be hot) the food is actually soooo good! And they have charcoochie boards (charcuterie board for those of you who prefer the elegant words). The wine tasting was so fun, we laughed so much, they sat us at this round table and allowed us to choose 6 wines we all wanted to try individually, the pours are not really that much but you can definitely still get a beautiful buzz. They have live music, a playing area for kids and an indoor/outdoor dining area. It's cozy, welcoming and a great way to spend family time including the kids and the elders of the family.
My family and I stopped her on our way from the central Florida to SW Florida. It's a small, locally owned winery. The space is beautiful. They have a large outdoor area with a playground for kids and lots of tables. There is a small bar inside, and they are renovating more interior space for additional seating for the hot summer months. The wines are overall pretty tasty. They only grow muscadine grapes on the property and import other grapes from California and elsewhere. They have a selection of drier wines all the way to the sweet fruit wines. They also offer wine sorbets. My husband and I each got a wine flight of 4 wines for $18. I forgot how big the pours were but they were a decent size. They also offer wine tasting experience of 6 wines, smaller pours, that lasts 45 minutes. They have a small section of food. We got the pimento cheese and crackers, the cheese was delicious. They also had popsicles and ice cream, which my kids enjoyed. We got three bottles of wine to take home with us! We love supporting our Florida wineries! Also, our bartender Shelley was fantastic! Very personable and knowledgeable. read more

Ryan and I had the most magical experience getting married at Fiorelli Winery from start to finish! This was the first venue we toured when deciding on where to get married and we never looked back. Kristin is absolutely amazing in everyway! She is the owner, wedding coordinator extraordinaire and overall such a warm, welcoming human that made our day come to life in the most beautiful way! The execution was flawless, the venue was lush and gorgeous and the wine is out of this world. I would highly recommend Fiorelli for a wedding and/or any special event. We go back often to have a glass of wine at the venue because we love it that much. Thank you Kristin and the whole Fiorelli team for making our vision a Disney reality! read more
Nice location, glad they have music on the weekends. Wine tasting was $18.79 for 4 tastings! Pretty pricey for mediocre wine. We enjoyed sitting outdoors so that was nice but for the prices - no way would I go back. Too bad...this place has a beautiful outdoors & I like that they are having music but the prices they are charging do not make it worth it for me to go back..... read more

The scenic atmosphere overlooking the wine vineyards enhance the experience of savoring wine and listening to music by John Allen James. Additionally, a nearby playground adds to the appeal, allowing children to play while adults engage in activities such as corn hole, (bags). read more

To note, I'm writing this as someone that would frequent wineries often. They're one of my favorite things so I have a lot to compare to and this place, sadly, fell short. All wines are a blend wine with a selection of fruit wines. If you like sweet wine this place will be great for you, if you have a developed wine palette not so much. The tasting room is indoors, we did not have a scheduled tasting time as we just showed up and found a seat at the bar. They had us select our 4 wines from the list of wines available and the staff poured our wine..we had no explanation of the tastes/flavors for each selection, no labeling and weren't even told which wine was which. Had I not taken a photo of the wines available I wouldn't have even known which ones I selected. Sandwiches were good and outdoor seating available with live music on weekends. Playground and other activities available for kids which is nice to offer that aspect for parents. Overall, don't necessarily see us jumping up and down to return but for Florida wine we weren't expecting much to begin with. read more

It was great they are open now and we appreciated them only allowing 1 party into their tasting room at a time...which once arriving I can see why because it is a very tiny little building, but you step in and you're taken away to a Napa-feel. The general manager poured our FREE tastings (5 total) and my husband and I were pleasantly surprised, given this was our very first Florida vineyard experience. We purchased 3 bottles to take home ($72 total). I think what sealed me on 4 stars instead of 5 was the overall grounds....the manager invited us to walk around and enjoy the property and I thought it would be a bit more pristine especially for also being an Air B&B property (which what a great idea). Anyways, we would return so that really is what matters! A great experience overall and tasty, good variety of wines! read more

New owners = a brand new amazing place!! 10 new flavors of wine and updated grounds & gift shop. We had the peach wine and it was amazing! They do wine tastings top of every hour for $12. Can't wait to come again and try the food & wine tastings! Congrats to the new owners on a great new place. read more

If I could give this place and the owners 10 stars, I would. We hosted our wedding rehearsal, ceremony, and reception at FioRelli and it was such an easy, seamless experience. The owner, Kristin, is always responsive, helpful and truly goes out of her way to help in any way she can. The moment we went to the venue, we knew it was the perfect spot for us, but having her and the team help really made everything come together exactly as we imagined. She provided countless recommendations and being in the wedding industry, she has a great list of contacts that was SO HELPFUL being a bride from out of state. Fiorelli is an amazing location with the BEST wine in the state! Highly recommend to all brides and for anyone who likes wine to stop in to try all the tasty varieties! read more

I recently had my reception here and when I tell you it was perfect, it was perfect! The staff is all amazing and easy to work with. I met my husband at Total Wine and Fiorelli was the first and only place I did a tour at, immediately I knew it was the one. So many of my guest said they loved the atmosphere. You feel like you are in your own world tucked back in there and its just pure magic. I also loved that the venue is unique, you arent going to find another spot like it locally. Thank you Kristin and staff for the the best night of my life! read more
