The story
Casa del Vino, located along Federal Highway in Hobe Sound, Florida, has earned recognition from Wine Spectator with its Best of Award of Excellence — a distinction that signals a wine program serious enough to complement the restaurant's French and Italian kitchen.
The Wine Spectator award is not given lightly. It recognizes lists that go beyond the expected, offering depth across regions and vintages that genuinely serve the food on the table. At Casa del Vino, that pairing philosophy appears to be foundational — the name itself, "House of Wine," signals where priorities lie.
The menu draws from two of Europe's most celebrated culinary traditions. French and Italian cuisine share a respect for quality ingredients and classical technique, and a restaurant that earns wine-list recognition at this level typically builds its kitchen to match. Hobe Sound, a quieter stretch of Florida's coast, makes Casa del Vino a genuine local anchor for guests who want a more considered dining experience — whether for lunch or dinner.
