    Barrel to Barrel: A Candlelit Ski Experience

    Join Traverse City Whiskey Co. and Brengman Family Wines for a winter evening that combines cross-country skiing with rare whiskey and wine experiences.

    The night begins at The Rickhouse, located next to the Brengman Family's vineyards, where Traverse City Whiskey Co. owner Chris Fredrickson will guide a whiskey barrel tasting, featuring samples that have never been released or tasted by the public.

    From there, guests will head out for an optional cross-country ski on a groomed, candlelit 2.5K trail through the vineyards. The experience wraps up at Brengman Family Wines with a behind-the-scenes tasting led by Robert Brengman and Ryan Tompke in the cellar and barrel rooms, along with small plates. 

    Return transportation to the rickhouse will be provided, or guests may ski back to the rickhouse (.5K).

    This is a limited-capacity event designed for those who enjoy good drinks, winter movement, and an exclusive look at how it’s all made.
