Back in July, a friend and I went and toured the Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards, located at 19239 US 27 North, Clermont, FL 34715. On the day that we visited, there was free blues music out on the lawn. Here are a few pictures from that afternoon. Enjoy!

| The front of the winery |
 |
| Some shots of the vineyards |
 |
| Some of the people out enjoying the live music |
 |
| A very cool carved door |
 |
| A potted plant.....whose vines and leaves make for an interesting ceiling |
 |
| Some antique wine making supplies |
 |
| Each barrel served as a tasting table for a different type of wine |
 |
| This machine is used to shake the grapes off the vine |
 |
| Florida is so humid that they can't make wine in oak barrels... |
 |
| ...instead they used large stainless steel vats |
 |
| An amusing mouse pad available at the store |
 |
| Corks in a cork cage |
The tour is free and takes about 45 minutes and is extremely informative and educational. It also includes free tasting samples of 8-12 different wines! I highly recommend spending an afternoon there!
