Enjoy a weekend of wine, barrels and behind-the-scenes tastings at Barrel into Spring, Friday-Saturday and May 8-9, in Palisade.

Self-guided tours will feature seven wines with barrel tastings and food pairings prepared by restaurateurs, chefs and caterers.

Each winery will be offering exclusive discounts on products and wines.

New this year is the free digital passport to track your stops at wineries. Participants who check in at all seven wineries by the end of the weekend will be entered into a drawing for a case of Colorado wine.
