Barriques operates as a food and beverage service venue headquartered in Madison, Wisconsin, combining a coffeehouse and wine bar concept. Founded by two brothers-in-law in 1998, the business began as a small wine shop on Monroe Street before expanding into specialty coffee a few years later, applying a similar approach to sourcing and pricing. The company emphasizes a do-it-yourself ethos, with eight cafes built and maintained by its own team and families, and began roasting coffee in-house in 2011 to control quality and consistency. Its offering targets customers seeking carefully sourced wines and specialty coffees, delivered through a community-oriented, hands-on operation in the Madison area. A notable recent development is a collaboration announced in 2020 with Doundrins Distilling LLC to produce a coffee liquor, reflecting diversification within its beverage portfolio.
