Wine Down Wednesday

Wine Down Wednesday International Drive Orlando

Orlando visitors don’t have to wait until Friday to enjoy an evening of Italian food, wine, and conversation. Every Wednesday, Vincenzo Cucina Italiana transforms an ordinary midweek dinner into an opportunity to explore its wine selection at half the regular by-the-glass price.

The promotion appeals to vacationers, convention travelers, couples, and Orlando locals who appreciate a good glass of wine in a comfortable restaurant setting. With a full Italian menu and a relaxed dress policy, the experience offers a more personal alternative to a formal wine-tasting venue.

Italian Chianti can accompany Lasagna. Chardonnay pairs with Scallop Risotto. Chicken Piccata provides a lighter Italian entrée with lemon butter and capers. Tiramisu creates a traditional conclusion.

Orlando’s best midweek dining plans can be as simple as a favorite Italian restaurant, an inviting table, and wine at half price.

This place is a hidden gem on I-Drive. Not a chain, not overpriced tourist food. Real Italian with real heart. The tiramisu alone is worth the trip.
