Chef and restaurant personality; Vizcaya Restaurant’s Felix Piedra
with Tampa’s Wine Correspondent, Ralph Del Rio, have prepared an exclusive wine dinner experience just for you. Each of Felix’s
deliciously made courses is perfectly paired with a new world vs old

educational and hedonistic.” – Ralph Del Rio, Certified Somm
