“The Indie Film Club of Miami is ecstatic to partner with Wine by the Bay for our monthly wine and cinema series. Great films paired with great wine are a match made in heaven, like a ragout of exotic wild mushrooms and Saint-Estephe Bordeaux or Woody Allen and Manhattan,” remarks event organizer, Diliana Alexander.

Alexander hopes to continue regularly holding this free event at Wine by the Bay, allowing the organization to bring to the public a thematically curated evening, paired with the right wine and nibblers. “Indulge your senses, explore your heart, and expand your palette,” she concludes.

Recently opened, Wine by the Bay is a retail wine boutique that hosts regular wine tastings and an ever-changing art exhibition. The store provides a selection suitable for all tastes and budgets. Owner and gallerist, Stefano Campanini (who also owns Etra Fine Art in the Design District) plans to regularly host events such as poetry readings, film screenings, and lectures that showcase local artists.
