McConnell Springs is hosting a fundraising event that will appeal to Kentucky wine lovers. From 11 to 5, visit any of the wineries on this map and get a chance to try some wines. Travel in your own vehicle from winery to winery, visit all eight or choose the ones you want to try. We’ve done this many years and the day is very enjoyable.
If you’ve never been to a barrel tasting, now is your chance. Visitors can talk to the winemakers, taste the wines while they are aging, and compare them to the finished wines. This is an excellent event for wine lovers!
