The Sta. Rita Hills Wine Alliance’s Annual Wine & Fire Weekend is set for August 18th - 21st and Barden is participating in several events.  Doug Margerum will be at the Kick-Off Event at The Hilt on Thursday, August 18, pouring some Library Wines in large format.  Additionally, we are hosting the Speed Tasting at the winery on August 20 and pouring our latest releases at the beautiful setting of La Purisima Mission.  We hope you can join us for an amazing opportunity to learn more about this very special region and its wines.  Click here for tickets.

Because we are 100% committed to the rustic, beautiful and glorious Grenache Grape, we are celebrating all week long International Grenache Day with a curated selection of Grenache-based wines we produce, perfectly matched to cuisine created by Chef Carolyn.  We hope you can join us to see why Grenache rivals Pinot Noir for quality, finesse and age-worthiness.  More information to come.

Since 2019, we have been in development on our first Sparkling Blanc de Blancs from Chardonnay in the Sta. Rita Hills.  With almost three years in tirage this is already an incredible wine and we look forward to sharing this very small production bottling with you from our Barden Label.  As many of you know, the Chardonnay from the Sta, Rita Hills is unlike anything grown in California beacuse of our "refrigerated-sunlilght" climate, and we think in ten year this region will be the definititve place to make Sparkling Wine in California.  For any questions, please contact stephen@margerumwines.com.

The Fall Wine Club Pick-Up Party is for Wine Club Members only and their guests.  The changing seasons in Santa Barbara Wine Country is a gorgeous time of year and we take full advantage of the color change at our Estate Vineyard in Los Olivos.  Set amongst our vineyards, nestled below ancient oaks, the Estate Vineyard is an exquisite location for this special event.  A catered meal will accompany this day along with live music and selections from our Library and Current offerings.  For questions, please contact our Wine Club Manager at marelina@margerumwines.com.
