Every New Years party tends to be a let down. We always want to be at the hub of whatever fun is going on, but for some reason, the night never pulls through.
Not this year.
We danced out 2008 and swaggered into 2009 at Domaine Chandon’s black tie “Roaring 20’s” New Year’s party. So much so that I might have “celebrated” enough to last until 2019.
We went with Andrew's brother, his friend Lindsay, and our friends Jay and Dana (pictured kissing on our homepage). The guys had a great excuse to wear our Little Barrel ties and the girls had no problem matching scarf belts to their dresses.
I gotta say, seeing Andrew's brother and my friends THIS dressed up in Little Barrel got me a little emotional. This time last year our company seemed like a pipe dream and, tonight, everyone wore OUR designs!!
As soon as we arrived, the dance floor swallowed everyone up and I barely saw my friends halfway through the first bottle (apparently Jay took it dancing). There was plenty of champagne and the live band kept everyone moving for hours. The best part about the crowd was there we so many people of different ages! I swear I saw the spitting image of my uncle doing the Charleston. People were in a festive mood and it was easy to make friends. Nobody wanted to stop.
Nobody really remembers what time our driver took us home, but we all had plenty of stories the next morning. I’d share them with you but a) you will judge and b) you just have to experience it yourself.

Our Story
We love wine. A lot.
We love wine so much we got married at a beautiful vineyard in Santa Barbara’s wine country in 2007. It was the greatest weekend of our lives and we wanted to give our family and friends something to remind them of the vineyard experience. (Something that would last more than a few sips.) When we couldn’t find unique or fashionable enough gifts, we decided to make them ourselves. So along with planning our seating chart and cake tastings, we made our first Little Barrel design.
After getting such a positive reaction to our gifts, and knowing there are millions of other wine lovers like us, we decided to expand our wedding project into a business. So we created a luxury brand of clothing that embodies everything we love about wine and the vineyards. Little Barrel has become the best excuse to be together, travel the world visiting vineyards, and to drink more wine!
Just like your favorite bottle of wine, our products are made with the highest quality material and the finest craftsmanship. We know wine lovers have high expectations and we guarantee the highest quality. If you don’t see us drinking the good stuff at your favorite vineyard, be sure to drop us a line and tell us about what you’re drinking, your favorite vineyard, and anything that’s on your mind.
