Barrels in the Plaza

Posted June 6, 2016

It’s time for you to uncork and unwind this June in San Luis Obispo’s laidback wine country! Join us for Barrels in the Plaza, SLO Wine Country Association’s kickoff event for the Roll Out the Barrels weekend. Roll Out the Barrels is an annual food, wine and music extravaganza, taking place throughout San Luis Obispo from June 23 – 26.

“You experience world-class wines and enjoy a culinary adventure all in one place in the heart of Downtown San Luis Obispo. These chefs bring their A-game and pair up these delicious edibles with fantastic wines,” said Heather Muran, Executive Director of SLO Wine Country Association.

During Barrels in the Plaza, you’ll enjoy a grand tasting of wines from San Luis Obispo and the Edna Valley, right in the heart of Downtown San Luis Obispo. Get your groove on with local favorite, the Damon Castillo Band, while sipping on award-winning wines in Mission Plaza. You will even get a sneak peek of new wines and vintages from Edna Valley – some that haven’t even been released yet – while interacting with the people behind the wines. On top of all that, the finest chefs of SLO County will be serving up delectable eats from Apple Farm, Luna Red, Novo, Madonna Inn and many more!
