An Inaugural St. Augustine Wine & Cultural Event
Sip Out Loud — A St. Augustine Wine Event at Bin 39 · September 24, 2026
Wine. Music. Culinary artistry. The soul of St. Augustine — the pride of St. Johns County.
What to Expect
An Invitation
Into Our Home
Sip Out Loud is designed to be a relaxed, fun, and memorable evening. Think of it as being invited to our home for an incredible celebration of wine, food, music, and community.
Throughout the evening, you'll explore four wine stations featuring generous pours from exceptional wineries. You'll have the opportunity to meet and talk with knowledgeable wine enthusiasts, industry professionals, and special guest Marta Rich, Proprietress of Talisman Wines, who will be sharing the stories behind her acclaimed wines.
Scattered throughout our beautiful courtyard, an outstanding lineup of local restaurants will be serving abundant tasting portions, creating a progressive dining experience that is substantial enough to serve as dinner — with additional culinary partners to be announced as we work to confirm more of the best culinary talent St. Johns County has to offer. There is no rush — wander from station to station, enjoy conversations, discover new wines, and savor exceptional cuisine at your own pace.
Live music will fill the courtyard throughout the evening, creating the perfect backdrop as you eat, drink, and celebrate. Sip Out Loud takes place from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, and when the evening concludes, you're just steps away from the Sing Out Loud Singer-Songwriter Festival, making it easy to continue the celebration.
Our goal is simple: to create an unforgettable evening where great wine, outstanding food, live music, local art, and wonderful people come together. We hope you'll relax, make new friends, discover remarkable wines, and leave with memories that will last long after the final glass is poured.
Sing. Sip. Taste. Belong.
The Experience
More Than a Tasting.
A Celebration of Place.
Sip Out Loud is not simply a wine tasting. It is an immersive hospitality and cultural experience that connects wine, music, culinary storytelling, local craft beverages, visual arts, and community identity — rooted in the character of St. Augustine and built to elevate the cultural brand of all of St. Johns County.
"Exceptional wine, food, music, and art each tell a story — and St. Augustine, as the cultural heart of St. Johns County, is the perfect place to begin telling that story together."
Rather than focusing on volume, Sip Out Loud emphasizes authenticity, storytelling, quality, and personal connection. Every element is intended to reflect the creativity, culture, and hospitality that define St. Johns County.
The experience is designed to feel sophisticated yet approachable — an intimate and refined environment where guests enjoy exceptional wines, curated culinary pairings, live singer-songwriter performances, local art, and direct interaction with the people behind each experience.
