Straight from the Barrel

What are you doing Thanksgiving weekend? Do you want to escape your relatives? I have the perfect solution.

Five of our local wineries (and vineyards) are offering a barrel tasting on Saturday, Nov 29. You can visit Harmony Hill, Kinkead Ridge, Henke, Burnet Ridge, and Woodstone Creek. Taste the wine straight from the barrel! This is a neat opportunity, if you haven’t done it, and I highly recommend it. It’s also a great opportunity for some holiday shopping, if you have any wine afficianados in your life.
