Online Wine Tasting
You can order our 'Kleine Proeverij voor Thuis' via our webshop. The tasting consists of a box with seven 50 ml. bottles with regularly changing wines for 25.00. In the box you will find an insert with an explanation and a QR code that leads to a film of about 15 minutes with an explanation of the wines by vinologist Martijn Fernhout. For an enjoyable evening of winetasting, or as a valued (business) gift!

Please note that the movie accompanying the 'Kleine Proeverij' is in Dutch! On request, we can subtitle or translate the tasting for larger groups or companies. For this, you can contact Martijn: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..

In addition, we regularly organize private online wine tastings for groups and companies. We do these tastings on the basis of the same tasting boxes with 7 x 50 ml. of wine, but with an extensive explanation: it includes a film with explanation of approximately 45 minutes and a live online session via Zoom or Microsoft Teams, where the wines are tasted under the guidance of Martijn and there is plenty of room for questions. The live session usually lasts 1 to 1.5 hours. Several themes are available: "an introduction to wine" (also available in English), France, Spain, Italy and Germany. Of course we taste wines that match the theme. The price for these online tastings is 49.50 per person including VAT, excluding any shipping costs. Due to the time and basic costs of filling and packaging, no graduated prices apply for online tastings, as with a normal tasting. The minimum number of participants is 14, the maximum 70. We can deviate from these numbers in consultation. If desired, we can also "enrich" the tasting with, for example, our BarrelBox or an assortment of suitable cheeses. An ideal night out, but then at home! For more information or a customized quote, please contact Martijn: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
In 2020 we were able to provide online wine tastings for, among others, Salesforce, eMule, Google, SHV, Arcadis, UMCG, RDW, Roland Berger and Quadient and for tasters throughout the Netherlands, in Belgium, Germany, Finland, Sweden, Italy, the United Kingdom, the US and even Singapore and Australia!

Small Tasting
During the opening hours of Barrel Wijnlokaal you can order a "small tasting". You will then be served 4, 6 or 8 half glasses (19.90, 29.50 and 38.50 p.p. respectively), of course with a short explanation per wine. You may indicate your preferences (per table) and we will choose a number of beautiful wines for you. We only serve the small tasting per table. It is not possible to book this tasting in advance. However, if you would like to do a small tasting with a larger group (from 8 people), we would like to know in advance.


Closed Tasting
Would you rather have an extensive tasting? That is of course also possible:
For a party, for your annual club, for a birthday or with a group of wine enthusiasts: we are happy to assist you!
We can provide tastings in Barrel Wijnlokaal or Barrel Wijnwinkel (for a maximum of 25 participants), or on location (for a maximum of... er... a lot of participants!). A tasting can be a "general introduction to the world of wine", but it is also possible to take a more specific approach, such as a tasting with only sparkling wines, dessert wines or ports, or with a specific wine country or region as the theme. Adjusted rates apply for a tasting focused on one type of wine or wine region. If desired, we would be happy to make a tailor-made offer for you.
For a tasting at Barrel, with an explanation of winemaking, different wine styles and origin of wine, tasting of 8 wines, including a suitable plateau with cheeses and charcuterie, you can assume the following graduated prices, depending on the number of participants.
