Central Florida must be the place to visit for winemakers. There’s another winemaker dinner tomorrow night, this one at Citrus.
It features Robert Rex, winemaker and co-owner of Deerfield Ranch Winery and Arroba Winery. The dinner is Wednesday, May 9, at 6:30 p.m. at Citrus Restaurant, 801 N. Orange Ave., Orlando. Cost is $75 per person, which includes tax and gratuity. Reservations at 407-373-0622.
Rex is also an accomplished chef, so the pairing of the food and wine should be exceptional.
