Barrel Tasting with the Winemaker at DuCard Vineyards

Want a sneak peek taste of the 2024 vintage? How about a personal session with our winemaker? Just how does he make the magic happen? Join us for our newest Wine Education & Exploration session: A Barrel Tasting With The Winemaker.

On selected Saturdays in March, we will meet in our new barrel room for a behind the scenes Barrel Tasting with our winemaker, Julien Durantie. He will open up his barrels and provide a sample taste of the 2024 harvest. An in depth discussion of the differences that vineyard terroir and the sensory impacts that barrel qualities make on the wine follows. It’s a personal and intimate glimpse into wine and the winemaking process that you surely don’t want to miss!

We will hold two hour-long sessions each day at 1pm and 3pm. Each session is limited to 10 guests and spots can be reserved for $69/person. Wine Club discounts apply. Members, please email Beth directly to receive your discount. (Sorry no pets allowed in the barrel room.)
