Cider and wine tasting room to debut in region

ESTERO — A couple originally from Michigan has opened the first cider and wine tasting room and store in the Miromar Outlets.

Dubbed R.A.D (Really Awesome Drinks) the location will carry all five current R.A.D products on tap, according to a statement. That includes drinks that are fruity, sparkling and enticing to those who don’t normally drink wine. Additionally, the tasting room will carry a selection of wines from Gravity Winery and Red Top Winery — all grown at owner Rockie Rick’s Michigan vineyards. Classics include Pinot Gris, Chardonnay and Bordeaux, along with some unique wines like a Merlot aged in bourbon barrels and a chocolate cherry port, the release states. The store will also feature canned wines and ciders.
