Presented by the North Carolina Seafood Festival and the North Carolina Coastal Federation, this event celebrates the North Carolina Oyster Trail. The Oyster Trail is a grassroots initiative whose mission is to provide oyster tourism experiences that will help sustain and grow N.C. oyster supply and demand, resulting in economic, environmental, and social benefits to the state’s seafood industry and coastal communities.

Wine & Brine will take place on January 17, 2025, from 6:00 pm-8:00 pm at Southern Salt Seafood Company and Waterfront Restaurant in downtown Morehead City.

Guests can meet local shellfish growers while sampling their delicious harvest which is expertly paired with a wine. Approximately 300+ guests partake in this celebratory event that helps solidify North Carolina as the “Napa Valley of Oysters.”
