Emerald Coast Wine Cellars

About Winery and Wines

Emerald Coast Wine Cellars has been a tourist favorite attraction in Miramar Beach, Florida for years. Along with our sister store and vineyard, our light-hearted, whimsical approach to wine and wine-related retail gifts moves us to the top of the list of places to visit for thousands of people annually. The name of Chautauqua was chosen for the Vineyards and Winery because of DeFuniak Springs, Florida, the town that was home to the permanent Winter Assembly of the Chautauqua Assembly from Chautauqua County, New York from 1885 to 1928. Many turn-of-the-century homes (and the Chautauqua "Hall of Brotherhood") still stand, gracing the shores of a perfectly round lake that is the center of the city.
