BARREL TASTING - ONE WEEKEND ONLYMarch 2-3, 2024 11:00 am - 4:00 pm each day


Join us as we celebrate our 46th Annual Barrel Tasting wine event! This is your chance to sample wines from the barrel, talk to winemakers and explore the beautiful Alexander, Dry Creek and Russian River Valleys located in Sonoma County, Healdsburg, Santa Rosa, and more.

Barrel Tasting is not a food pairing or themed event. It's all about the WINE...many wineries offer "futures" on their barrel samples. This is a chance to purchase wine now, often at a discount, then come back to the winery when the wine is bottled, typically 12-18 months from now. Many wines are so limited, buying futures is your only chance to purchase them.

$85.00 Early Bird Weekend Ticket (January 25-31)

$95.00 Weekend Tickets (purchased after January 31)

$75.00 Sunday Only

$10.00 Designated Driver

Your Ticket Includes:

  • Barrel Sampling at all participating wineries (minimum of 3 tastes at each winery), some wineries may charge an additional fee for current vintages (refer to Event Program).

Attendees will receive a tasting glass & wristband upon check-in. Designated Drivers are given a different color wristband and they are not served wine. All attendees must be 21 years of age or older.

We will no longer be providing Wine Road Mugs to Designated Drivers, we will now be donating a portion of the Designated Driver ticket money to the Redwood Empire Food Bank.

For compliance with Sonoma County "best practices" for events we MUST enforce a limited number of people checking in at each winery location. We cannot make exceptions, once a winery has reached their limit for check-ins you will need to select another winery and check-in at that location.

All buses are banned from Wine Road events. A van is not a bus, but a bus of any size is just that - a bus. Buses are not allowed. Wineries will turn you away at the parking lot.

REFUND POLICY: Sales are FINAL and non - refundable. No full or partial refunds are given to customers who will miss the event. The ticket is valid only on the date[s] of the event as listed and may not be exchanged or redeemed for any other dates.
