I'm excited to be heading down to Clearwater this weekend for the inaugural Clearwater Beach Uncorked.

The City of Clearwater and the Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Hotel & Spa are hosting this two-day wine and food event showcasing the areas best chefs, local cuisine, delicious wines, craft beers and cooking tips from Publix Apron's cooking school. The festivities take place this Saturday and Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. along South Gulfview Boulevard. In addition, there will be a one-of-a-kind Uncorked Beach Bar hosted by the Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach. If you love food and wine and would like to check out the Clearwater wine festival this weekend, tickets are available at ClearwaterBeachUncorked.com.
