A family-run boutique vineyard and winery near Fort Pierce that pairs rustic Florida vineyard charm with sweet, fruit-forward wines — especially muscadine and tropical fruit styles that reflect the state’s flavor profile.

I suggest sipping a Beach Nut semi-dry white and the Rastamon Red (a semi-sweet red) to start, and if you like sweeter styles go for Cap’n Polly’s Private Plunder (bourbon barrel-aged dessert wine) — all easy, approachable, and great chilled on a warm Florida day.

The winery offers guided wine tastings where you sample a flight of handcrafted wines in a souvenir glass while staff walk you through flavors and how muscadine and fruit wines differ from classic European styles — a great intro to Florida wine. Winery tours are available with reservations and include a look at the vineyard, cellar, and winemaking process to give context to what you’re tasting.

Beyond wine, Summer Crush leans into fun with live music and events on weekends, food trucks during concerts, and a laid-back outdoor space with lawn games, picnic areas, a pond, and shaded spots to relax.
