6th Annual
Anderson Valley
Barrel Tasting Weekend
Saturday, July 21 & Sunday, July 22, 2018
11:00 PM – 4:00 PM EACH DAY
Featuring Anderson Valley AVA & Yorkville Highlands AVA Wineries
$25 in advance online; $30 at the door of any participating winery.
Get unprecedented access to winery cellars, taste yet-to-be-released wines, and purchase futures of your favorites at a special barrel tasting weekend price! Explore the area, discover new wineries, and enjoy a beautiful summer weekend in Pinot country!
Participating wineries will feature previews of new wines, from Pinot Noir to Zinfandel, along with current releases. Attendees will receive a logo glass and a wristband, which grants access to the events for both Saturday and Sunday.
WHY A SUMMER BARREL TASTING?
AREN’T MOST HELD IN THE SPRING?
The majority of Anderson Valley wineries produce high-end Pinot Noir, and Pinot really tastes best right before bottling time. By holding a barrel tasting in the summer, attendees will be able to evaluate the wines in a nearly finished state, instead of young wines that will change dramatically during the aging process.
So, when you buy futures, you know exactly what you’ll be receiving the next year!

Join us for wine and conversation at WildCare! Enjoy a late-day refreshment in our WildCare Courtyard and meet our Wild Animal Ambassadors, some of our medical team, and learn about the important ways we help our community “life well with wildlife”.
This event is free, but RSVP is required. See you soon!
