Capri Cellars is delighted to present Behind the Barrel event, where you not only get to sample and experience the latest vintages from special wineries in the Pacific Northwest, but also get a peek behind the barrel of the artistry that shapes every vintage of a particular winery. Each event held at Capri Cellars offers an intimate look at a winemaker’s philosophy, passion, and personality via an interactive Q&A—revealing how tradition, innovation, and terroir come together to create wines with true character and soul. Also enjoy complimentary charcuterie and hummus boards, plus a fun opportunity to mix and mingle with fellow wine lovers and the winemaker. 

There is a story behind every barrel.
