19239 U.S. 27 North, Clermont, Florida 34715. Phone: 800-768-WINE. Complimentary Tours and Wine Tasting are offered seven days a week. Monday - Saturday, 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. and Sunday - 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. Last tours are offered at approx. 4:00 p.m. everyday. Tours usually run every 30 minutes and begin with a 15 minute video presentation which shows the growing of the Florida grapes to the wine making process and the finishing with the bottling and labeling. Your personal Tour Guide will then show you the production area and the spectacular view of the vineyards where the grapes are grown and harvested. The Wine Tasting is held at the large tasting counter. A selection of award winning wines ranging from dry to sweet with sparkling are usually offered. The winery tour and wine tasting lasts approximately 45 minutes. Currently at Lakeridge, we have about 80 acres of vineyards planted. Our hybrid grapes include Blanc Du Bois, Stover and Suwannee. Our Muscadine grape varieties are Noble and Carlos (red) along with Welder (bronze) Muscadines. Hybrid and muscadine grapes grown in Florida survive because of their disease resistance and adaptability to our warm, humid climate. The bunch grape varieties used in our wines are Suwannee, Stover, and Blanc Du Bois. The Muscadine varieties we use are Noble (red), Carlos, Welder, and Magnolia (whites). Our vineyard does not provide all the grapes we need. To supplement our vineyards we contract with local growers who specialize in these grape varieties. We have been growing grapes here since 1988. We also have an Annual Harvest Grape Stomp on a Saturday and Sunday in mid August for $2 Donation to benefit The Boys & Girls Club. Finally, harvest season has arrived and it's time for grape stomping competitions! This event is perfect for a family outing. Listen to continuous live music the entire weekend by superb local musicians. Lakeridge wine, beer, soft drinks and a variety of food is available for purchase, along with complimentary Winery tours and tasting.
