Barrel Tasting: A Family Affair

A person pours red wine from a decanter into a glass held over a wooden barrel at a wine tasting event in Healdsburg, California.
Feb21

Experience wine in the making at Dry Creek Vineyard, a family-owned winery with more than 50 years of history in Sonoma County’s Dry Creek Valley. This immersive Barrel Tasting invites guests beyond the tasting room and into the heart of the winemaking process — sampling wines straight from the barrel before they’re released to the public.

Hosted by the winery’s winemakers and longtime family grower partners, guests will hear directly from the people who farm the land, craft the wines and shape each vintage from vine to barrel.

Adding to the excitement, a skilled cooper will be on hand with a live barrel-making demonstration, showcasing the time-honored craft behind the oak barrels that influence flavor, texture and aging. It’s a dynamic, behind-the-scenes experience that blends wine, storytelling and hands-on artistry.

Perfect for curious wine lovers and anyone looking for a memorable wine country experience.
