• Beer and white wine available for purchase
• All net proceeds from the event go to the Amador Community Foundation to be distributed to local charitable causes.
Why a Barbera Festival?
Barbera is becoming more and more popular in California. We see more people excited about it, and asking about it, every day. Many California producers offer a varietal Barbera. Barbera is a great food wine yet quite enjoyable on its own. Still, Barbera remains fairly obscure. We want to bring Barbera to the attention of the general wine buying public.
Where will the Barbera Festival be held?
To continue to provide a premier guest experience while enabling more attendees to participate, and showcase another beautiful historic Barbera vineyard, we are moving to the original home of Barbera in Amador County: Terra d’Oro/Montevina Winery. Located just down the street from previous years’ event site, this larger location features a beautiful meadow spotted with ancient oaks tucked among hillside vineyards. With more elbow room for everyone, we hope to continue a tradition of a day of Barbera tasting like no other in California.
