The glasses were certainly half full Friday, Sept. 14, at South Florida Museum’s fundraising event, Vinology.
Seminars were offered to examine, evaluate and understand the science of wine. Attendees learned about pairing various varietals with small bites offered from Anna Maria Oyster Bar, Harry’s Continental Kitchens, The Lazy Lobster, Michael’s On East and other restaurants.
There were plenty of opportunities to say hello to Snooty, the museum’s resident manatee, and stroll through the exhibits, all in the name of raising funds for South Florida Museum’s education program.
