Great wine tasting!…read more I had wanted to go to Barrista, but they were closed for a private event. I came here instead and I was not disappointed! For 20 dollars, you can get a really thorough tasting of the wines they have to offer. I loved the 100% Merlot and the Cab Sauv. The server was friendly and extremely knowledgeable. You can sit inside or outside so it's really nifty. I also enjoyed the inside because they'll showcase local artists. Loved this Macau painting, but was sad they didn't have a print of it. Come give this place a try!

A chance of wine: Steve Trabun and Russ Feist were…read moreaspiring home winemakers who met by chance when Feist couldn't pick up his grapes in Prosser, WA. It just so happens that Trabun was picking up his grapes and at the vineyards suggestion stepped in to help out. After that chance meeting and making some wine together they decided to take the leap of faith and start a commercial winery. That is of course, after they got the buy-in from their wives, Marlene Feist and Dana Trabun. Just to think, that random act of kindness of picking up another man's grapes led to the opening of Barili Cellars. Steve Trabun and Russ Feist, along with their completely on board wives add their personal touch to the wine making process. The winery was inspired by the Italians who believe wine is meant to be shared and every day is special enough to enjoy a glass of wine. The Barili story is one about good things happening to good people and fast friends going confidently in the direction of their dreams. One could say that the cellar doors of opportunity kept presenting themselves along the way. Sip Tips: After a quick sell through of their debut wines along with the encouragement wine drinkers pleading with them to make more, Barili responded with more than tripling production to 450 cases. 2008 Viognier was a victory (so good with Cougar Gold cheese) but their sophomore release had their 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon stealing the spotlight. Sip Picks: Best marketing label. This bright design stands out on the shelf getting your attention. The label may have you try it, but the contents will have you back for more.

There are many things one can look for in a winery to give it high ratings. Some places have amazing settings. And some places have amazing product. To say V du V has an amazing product is perhaps an understatement. V du V has THE best wine we've tried anywhere thus far on our Spokane wine trek. We tasted many of their wines, including their white blend, pinot rose, malbec (which was a surprisingly different malbec than anywhere else we've been locally), syrah, cabernet franc, and a huge cabernet sauvignon. Each wine was unique in taste, and across the board I was blown away by how aromatic the wines were. It has been a long time where I've encountered a wine that appeals so strongly to the nose. The owners were both friendly and proud of their product, which we've found to be a sign of a great product. Almost unfailingly, the more in tune with the product and the customers, the better the overall quality is. The owners, John and Kirk, nail that on every front. We ended up coming home with the cabernet sauvignon and white blend (which is unlike any white I've ever had in any state or country, to be honest), but I know we will be back. V du V easily makes the short list of places to bring out of town guests to try the best of all the awesome things Spokane has to offer!

Wow! This is the real thing. A boutique winery, where winemakers (and owners), Kirk and John,…read moretransform fruit to beautiful wines, all on site. It's refreshing to find beautiful small lot crafted wines at very reasonable prices instead of large volume commercial stuff. Highly recommend!
