If you’re looking for something to do in the Bay Area this weekend, you might want to check out the Livermore Valley Barrel-Tasting Weekend. Tickets to the two-day event cost $20 in advance and include a tasting at each winery. About two dozen local wineries will be participating. Not only will you get a chance to try some great wines still in “development,” but you’ll get the opportunity to buy futures. This means if you taste a wine that you think you’re really going to love, buying in advance, before it’s even been bottled (you probably won’t see the wine for at least a year or so) can save you up to 25% on the retail price. While you’re there, check out the rest of the town, which was just featured in last month’s issue of Sunset.
