Barrel Tasting with Our Winemaker • Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards
Friday, July 10 | 4:00 PM – 5:30 PM • Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards, Hector, NY
Sip, compare, and discover how barrel aging shapes our estate-grown dry reds.
Join our winemaker, Alexandra Bond, for a relaxed, behind-the-scenes guided barrel tasting featuring our estate-grown Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. You’ll taste wines straight from the barrel while learning how the barrels influence flavor, aroma, texture, and the overall character of the wines. Your ticket includes:
- Guided barrel tasting with our winemaker
- Charcuterie small bites
- Learn all about barrels – why we choose certain barrels, differences in barrel sizes and why that matters, how barrels influence the wine, and how we choose the final blend.
After the tasting, stick around and hang out with us at The Oasis outdoor bar for live music, 5:30-8:30 PM.
