Cloak & Dagger Wines Reviews
Interesting place inside. Nice and cool and the staff was very nice and friendly
Had a great time at Cloak & Dagger. We’re not huge Cabernet fans ourselves, but our friends are, and they absolutely loved what they tasted here. Service was excellent throughout, and the ambiance made the whole visit feel special. Even as non-Cab drinkers, we had a wonderful time and would happily go back. Great spot for wine lovers of all kinds in Paso Robles!
Great tasting room with a lovely host who was attentive but not cloying. Good example of what Paso Robles growers and winemakers do.

Cloak & Dagger Wines stands out with a mysterious and intriguing marketing approach, reflected in their decor and wine labels. Tucked away at 840 11th St in a small historic building overlooking City Park, the tasting lounge exudes intrigue with tufted leather couches, hidden nooks, and whispers of secret doors. The Cryptology blend remains a secret, adding to the allure, while bold Bordeaux-style wines like The Assassin, Deep State, and The Conspirator are highlights. The crisp Albariño, Espía, and limited-edition reserves like Cryptology and Traitor deliver maximum impact.
The friendly service creates a welcoming atmosphere, with staff sharing hushed tasting notes and insider knowledge of the winemaking process. The Syrah is a recommended choice, and the Cryptology Reserve stands out as smooth, complex, and absolutely delicious. Open daily (typically 11 AM–8:30 PM), the $25 tasting fee is reasonable for the quality. Reservations are encouraged to avoid a sudden lockdown at the door.
Downtown Paso’s casual vibe meets clandestine lounge energy here—dog-friendly, with plush furnishings and park views. Whether you’re into bold reds, crisp whites, or whispered conspiracies, this spot delivers a laid-back tasting with theatrical flair. A must-visit for delicious wines and a cool vibe.
