Carruth Cellars’ Summer Solstice Barrel Tasting Returns to Liberty Station

Wine lovers, the longest day of the year just got even better. Carruth Cellars brings back their Annual Summer Solstice Barrel Tasting Party at their Liberty Station location, offering a rare chance to taste wines straight from the barrel while celebrating the season’s peak.

Two Sessions, Maximum Flexibility

The celebration splits into two distinct experiences at the Liberty Station Tasting Room & Wine Garden. Early Birds can enjoy the session with DJ Tykes providing the soundtrack, while Night Owls get the experience featuring live music by Lissa Dee.

Both sessions deliver the same exceptional wine experience with different vibes to match your Saturday style.

Straight from the Barrel Experience

For $76 per person, guests sample 12 wines directly from the barrel—a unique opportunity that most wine enthusiasts rarely get to experience.

Carruth Cellars showcases their 2023 and 2024 vintages, giving participants an insider’s look at wines that are still developing their character before bottling.

The garden patio setting at Liberty Station’s Historic Decatur location creates the perfect atmosphere for this kind of intimate wine exploration.

Futures Program Offers Serious Value

The futures program provides access to significant discounts up to 50% off wines that are still aging in the barrel. Once these wines are bottled in the fall, participants get contacted for pickup—essentially allowing wine lovers to invest in exceptional bottles at pre-release pricing.

It’s a win-win that supports the winery while giving serious wine enthusiasts access to limited production wines at substantial savings.

Food and Music Complete the Celebration

Wood-fired pizza from California Poppy Cafe pairs perfectly with the barrel tastings, while live music creates the kind of festive atmosphere that makes summer solstice celebrations memorable. The souvenir glass ensures you take home a piece of this special tasting experience.

See you there!
