5. Boca Bacchanal

The Buzz -- Fancy yourself a connoisseur of fine wine or just interested in strengthening your understanding of oenology? If so, this gathering is sure to be right up your alley. The main events – a grand tasting, an auction and several wine seminars – are held at the Centre for the Arts in Mizner Park, and each of them promises to be a fun, informative venture into the wonderful world of wine. For an especial treat on Friday night, make plans to participate in one of the Vintner Dinners, which pair internationally acclaimed chefs and vintners in private dining rooms all over the city. NB This event overlaps the final weekend of Boca's celebrated Festival of the Arts, an 11-day affair that features concert performances, film screenings and lectures.
