“We have been members for a few years now. Love it! We had another a great tasting experience Sunday Feb 26. Lexi is an awesome host. The wines are excellent; perfect balance of elegance, finesse, and body. Bret is doing a great job. Highly recommend a visit on your next trip through Tin City!“
“If you're into sipping wine with a view, you gotta check out Stillwater, their patio is the real deal with stunning vineyard views.Once we sat down, we were served with complimentary olives and crackers. They grow their own olives and they're super delicious but too bad they don't sell them.We were told that post-covid, they used to host weddings now they are hosting music events instead.We tried their blanc, grenache, merlot, and blend and we were impressed with the wines. We ended up getting a few bottles of their rose, white, and red to take home. Stillwater is one of the best spots for wine tasting. Super chill vibe, awesome wine, and that view is definitely worth a visit! It's dog-friendly and our dog loves this winery too!“
“Beautiful and modern tasting room close to Tin City. Staff is very nice and accommodating. It was definitely busy, while I had reservations I did see some walk ins as well. Nice wines, I ended up not buying but Enshroud and Two stood out for me!“

“We first discovered Copia in 2020 and instantly fell in love with all the wine and everyone that works there! We come back at least once a year and each time there's something new, they're always growing, and their passion grows with them! The small band of employees remember you and make sure you're having a great time. I love the Source, it's my favorite red, and my husband like the White. I would recommend doing their wine food pairing, it's like little gourmet plates that bring out the wine so so well! This is our first wine membership, and we're so happy with our choice!“
“Wonderful winery. Very relaxed. Great ambiance. Absolutely delicious wines. Morrey, our server was great. Ambiance. Beautiful tasting room. Not mammoth. Sitting outside and doing our tasting was great. As a side note, they had no problem that we had brought some items to gnosh on while tasting. Service. Morrey was our server. Just a wonderful man. He has helped us both times that we were here. He is very knowledgeable in talking about the wine, and the winemaker's vision. He did this in a way that was informative and not condescending. Such a nice man. Wines. Ok. Here is where they shine. They produce Rhône varietals. We started with a Rose', and then we tasted a very complex Roussane. We then tasted Cohort, which was a Petite Syrah, Syrah and Mouvedre blend. Next was the Syrah. Absolutely amazing. We then tasted Companion. This is a Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Petite Verdot blend. Again, delicious. Here's the problem. All were delicious. It's in trying to limit how much that you are going to buy. In summation, this is a must visit stop if you enjoy Rhône Varietals.“
“From the moment you arrive,you're greeted with an amazing staff.The ambiance is nothing short of warm and serene.You'll feel a sense of tranquility that complements the wine perfectly.You can tell Brian & Natalies dedication & passion for winemaking !They also serve you a nice variety of Natalies homemade goodies from her garden (the marinated tomatoes are a MUST)The staff truly elevates the experience.Overall,a must-visit for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat w/ exceptional wine.Its no wonder this has become one of our favorite wineries.We joined their membership club on the spot!“
“Four Lanterns offers a beautiful setting to enjoy their variety of wines. We tasted both white and red wines and loved them all! Mary K was very informative about each wine and helpful with our selections and shipping options. I will definitely be back again. Thank you Mary K for your wealth of knowledge and warm hospitality.“
“We landed here for an after dinner drink and had a lovely time. We had a delicious cider that I would order again in a heartbeat, but I enjoyed the bar tender most - she was funny, friendly, helpful, and made some great suggestions for the places to visit while here.“
“I had the pleasure of tasting through the newly released 2021 vintage last week with Ally. She is an absolute pleasure - extremely knowledgeable and a delight to learn from... an excellent host! The 21v Maven (100% Grenache) and the 21v Banshee (MSG) will knock your socks off... heaven in a bottle. I highly recommend you visit Torrin.“
“We had a lovely anniversary at the vineyard. The staff was extremely kind and accommodating. The grounds were beautiful and we had a lot of fun exploring the area. The owner himself spent a lot of time talking with us, giving us the history of the vineyard, and sharing stories with us. It had such a homey feel and the wine was pretty good as well! We also liked it because it was further away from the hustle and bustle of Paso Robles and it really felt like a retreat. It was a fantastic place to stay and I would not hesitate to recommend it to others.“
“This is a true hidden gem worthy of seeking out when you're in Paso.I was lucky enough to be hosted by the winemaker himself during my tasting! The wines are exceptional, and as a big fan of Grenache the tasting I got to enjoy really delivered! Plus, having the winemaker there to share the story was magical.They say the devil's in the details, but at Cairjn you can tell that they've thought of ALL of those details, from the interesting labels and icons on each wine to the cork they use. I have a feeling their story is going to be very fun to watch unfold!!“
“Isolated small campus villa where the grapes are grown, and the rooms are really nice. There are two Tesla home chargers available for EVs. Complementary breakfast was excellent, served buffet style and crafted by their chef. Notably, bacon pancakes were airy and had structure to keep them light. Other morning treats make the breakfast a multi act show. Highly recommend.“
“We were seated in the barrel room since it was raining outside and this was a very pretty alternative. Greg poured our wines and he was so kind and informative. He took time to explain all the wines and the history around the winery. The cheese pairing plate was especially good.“
“The wine, staff and ambiance was just what we were looking for. It was so relaxing and calm, we didn't want to leave. The staff were so great and we can't wait to go back. To top it all off, there blends were amazing! Highly recommend for a more relaxed tasting experience.“
“What a great visit. We had not been back to Paso for five years, but meeting Bob and Lynn , the founders of this great estate, was just a real plus. I love how they are so down to earth and welcoming—Bob still refers to himself as ‘just a grape farmer’. Lovely visit, great wines (see critic Jen Dunnuck’s ratings), and a warm greeting from the hosts. Thx, Bob and Lynn“
“I'm obsessed! The wine, service, and grounds are nothing short of outstanding. Ascunsion Ridge is a small operation run by beautiful, honest people that love what they do. Each wine I sampled was complex and beautifully balanced. Everything was beyond my expectations and I loved my time here so much I couldn't help but sign up for a membership. I can't wait to come back!“
“An absolutely amazing winery both for wines and vibe. Generous pours, reasonably priced bottles and tasting, and very family friendly. This was me and my wife’s first experience in Paso Robles and it remains the best so far. Would highly recommend and I will be back with friends and more family!“
“Amazing 100% organic winery nestled in the Paso Robles hillside. The ranch was originally established in the mid 1800'sand now serves as an amazing winery and restaurant. You can't go wrong with great wine and great food not to mention great service.“
“First time at Tobin James and our first stop in Paso. We had a wonderful experience and Andrew made it even more enjoyable! The wines are great, the atmosphere is welcoming, and every staff member was awesome! They truly lived up to their great reviews. I would totally recommend going here if you want good wine and a warm and inviting experience! I was having such a great time I forgot to take any photos of the wines. Also, as a side note- the little birdie wine topper is a must! It chirps when you pour ?“
“Yes, the rumors are true, this place is incredible, it smells amazing, the building looks really good, scenic grounds, the food is was some of the best in Paso Robles, the wine tasting was the most complex experience, our host did an incredible job of explaining when we were experiencing, very knowledgeable of every aspect even the most technical curiosities we might have had! It was a truly unique experience and can’t wait to return!“
“We tasted 4 outstanding 2021 wines. Russell Family Vineyard was 100% syrah, the other 3 were blends of Sarah, Mourvedre and Grenache. All rated 93 to 94 points. Glenn, the Tasting Room manager is extremely well versed on wines from many countries and I'd say an expert on Paso Robles wines. Very happy with our Tasting and thrilled to be Club members!“
“Such a fun experience at McPrice Myers! Adriane was a fantastic ambassador for the brand, and we loved the wine. Because it was raining our tasting was in their stock room with the barrels of wine (no frills, for lack of a better term) and it was so refreshing to see a winery so grounded and down to earth! Loved the experience, can't wait to go back!“
“We had a great time here thanks to Charlotte. It was a rainy Thursday before Christmas, so it wasn't busy and Charlotte was able to spend a lot of time with my wife and me to go into more detail about the winery, the wines, and Paso Robles in general as this was our first time in the region. She also made an effort to keep our little one entertained by showing him their books and pet turtle. The wines are excellent too :) Out of three tasting rooms' worth of wine on the day, Sackcloth & Ashes was my wife's top wine of the day. She's also not a Chardonnay fan, but she really liked Wayfinder. My favorite was the Carmen Sauvignon Blanc. It's unlikely any Sauvignon Blanc I've had before and I enjoyed the different expression. It was a riper fruit profile, but still lots of acid to keep it interesting. Thank you Charlotte for a memorable experience!“
“Nice little place, simple tasty wines with the old world flair. I'm more of a "red" drinker so I cannot really comment about their white. It was ok for me but again white sweeter type of wine isn't my thing. We moved on to taste the rest of the lineup. The second one on the list was such an easy drink. I visualized an everyday dinner drink with my family. As we moved on, Fernando was explaining the different varietals of blends in the wine. Each tasting became more dry as we moved through the tasting list (which was what I was looking for - thanks). The whole experience was really enjoyable and Fernando was a true host and entertained our small group. I left there impressed by the wines they offered and will definitely recommend them to friends passing through town.“
“This place is amazing! Service, wine, views, it checks all the boxes. (And we come to Paso a lot.) It's a new favorite! Gina was also possibly the best wine pourer we've had EVER! It was super busy but it became a party to her not a burden. Very impressive!“
“Amazing bold reds! We loved everything we tasted, and that has only happened at one other winery. The owners are friendly, knowledgeable, and have a great sense of humor! We totally enjoyed our time in the tasting room, and our RV lodging on the property, as they are Harvest Hosts.“
“Hidden gem of a tasting room in the heart of Paso RoblesIf you're walking on the sidewalks, you will miss this one unless you keep a sharp eye for signs pointing to it. This wineries tasting room is a small but cozy room with the entrance opening on a parking area. Next door to Jeffrey s Wine Country BBQ.The counter service here is friendly and informative. Their tasting flight makes it really difficult to pick just one varietal. I bought five bottles, this being the only white wine. I never buy white wine or rosé. This one changed all that.Their Rozanne Pinot Noir Rosé is the only white wine I will drink. I bought only one bottle of that to bring home and four others of their traditional Pinot Noirs that I tasted and really enjoyed! I will update this post once I open those bottles.I have checked at another large chain here that sells wine and more. They don't carry it so it looks like a road trip is in order to restock on the Rosé. I might need to sign up for the wine club on this one. ?. Ship it to me, please and thank you!“
“My wife and I had no idea "Tin City" even existed, but it's cool! Great place for one stop all day wine tasting. The GEM of Tin City is Concur! Patrick was an incredible host (and owner). He made my wife, daughter, dog, and myself feel very comfortable and welcome. They even had coloring books and puzzles for my daughter! She had a blast. Now, the wines. It's VERY seldom that I enjoy every wine at a tasting, but chalk that up to a very surprising first. Don't get me wrong, I liked some more than others, but they were all good. The stars of the show, in my humble opinion, the chardonnay and the red blend. WOW! Rare for me to enjoy a white as much as this. All of their wines finished so smoothly. Impressive wine making. Their bottles are not the cheapest but worth the price. Good wine isn't cheap, cheap wine isn't usually good. Do yourself a favor and stop in for a tasting. You will be glad you did. Thank you, Patrick, we will be back.“
“Came with a large group and had the most perfect afternoon learning about the owners style of winemaking and cider making. His kids were out and about and it made for a really welcoming experience. The ciders were amazing and we took home a bottle to have at our wedding the following week. Loved it!“
“We sampled a few wine tasting spots in town, and this one is by far the best. They have the best sampling options and varieties from their boutique vineyard.We really liked the vibe. There were a lot of locals in the shop who have memberships, and had a great time getting to know everyone. I’d say hands down this tasting room has the biggest bang for your buck. Thank you all for this experience!“
“The absolute best winery in Paso Robles right now, a true gem. Their old school approach to their wines and winery gives each wine its own distinct character, making them uniquely complex, rich and delectable. A true wine craftsman, making small batch specialities.“
“Steve and Pam are the best hosts you could ever ask for. They have such a love for people and wine, it is quite apparent. As they can tell you (as our time there was spent relishing their company and getting to know one another) we were there to celebrate our wedding and have a little coastal miniMoon. The views are incredible’ They have a gem of an intimate place. It’s honestly flawless. The secret is out, but they don’t charge for their tasting. But that doesn’t matter because you’ll want to buy a bottle or two, they’re just that good. Almost as good as their company. I feel like I made new friends! See you next time!Other notes:They are very dog friendly and they provided homegrown and home-brined (delicious) olives and crackers.Again, they are the sweetest owners and couple and they do everything themselves. Organic and self-blended. Just amazing.“
“First time going to Cambria and looked for a winery that sounded unique. It was everything I could want! An amazing variety of reds with a family that knows what they're doing. The dry harvesting caught my attention, and that detail did not disappoint. Unique, tasty, and wonderful service. We'll be going back for sure!“
“Really the question is why wouldn't you stop here? We came on a Sunday afternoon last minute after reading other reviews on Yelp regarding this great spot. It proved to be perfect. Gibson was amazing. We enjoyed wine tasting outside on the patio. Brought our own bread and olive oil from another local place (separate review) and began the journey through Aaron and the style of wine he creates. Gibson was friendly, knowledgeable and a great host. He conveyed the path taken in the creation of these wines and answered all our questions seamlessly. I felt at times as if we were talking to the wine maker himself because he was so knowledgeable. We enjoyed and purchased a few bottles and one of us became a wine club member. The patio was dog friendly and covered. Sometimes these places can be stuffy, not this place. Down to earth people sharing a down to earth wine. So I ask again why wouldn't you stop here? There really is no reason.“
“Love the 2019 Jacobs Ladder. In fact I wouldn't visit for a tasting again. Just pick up the JL. $20 for 3 tastes is different but they did offer some extras. Staff was nice. The drive out was beautiful. Winery isn't fancy but sometimes big and picturesque might be overrated...“
“Thacher wine is a family owned winery with an authentic farm like atmosphere . It's about 25 min from downtown Paso Robles. It has old stables and barns and chickens and rooster running around which I loved!!! This was a second winery of the day and we were feeling pretty good lol! Our reservation was for 3:30 pm so by the time we got there it wasn't very crowded at all which was nice. We were greeted right away by Beck, who let us sit wherever we'd like and we chose to sit outside next to the heater. He also provided blankets as well which was nice since it was a bit chilly. Becks energy was so contagious and that really enhanced our wine tasting visit, and we really enjoyed his thorough explanations of The Oxymoronic theme with their wine and label- love it! Beck gave us an extra wine rosé for our patience, as he was caring for a couple things as well as serving our tasting. Our fave wines were Triumvirate reserve zinfandel (100% Zinfandel) and Original copy( Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot). Although there was no food served we didn't mind at all and were able to grab a bite later once we got back into downtown Paso Robles. Our tasting cost $20 a person and since we bought a bottle of the Triumvirate and left a tip our overall cost was $114.79. We would definitely come back to Thacher in the spring when it's warmer and sit outside again to enjoy the wine and watch the chickens!“
“Definitely worth the side trip. Our pourer was knowledgeable and fun to chat with. The tasting room is very nice and well stocked. The grounds are so pretty. They are doing very interesting things with grapes. Of course we couldn't leave without buying a couple of bottles.“
“Stan took amazing care of us. And the wines were phenomenal. I came for the ports and they did not disappoint. My fav was the 2010 tauriga and walked away with a bottle and a family member signing up to be a member. Was our first visit but not our last!“
“We were so blessed to have David as our guide and host for our tasting at Austin Hope. David was a delight, sharing his knowledge, his enthusiasm for the wines and the history of the winery — all while making us feel special and so very welcome! We visited several wineries in Paso Robles and this experience exceeded our expectations!“
“Awesome wine, loved the whole line-up. Considering the wines up here in Paso, these wines were exceptionally well balanced with a lot of expression in each wine. We met the winemaker/owner/founder, Matt, and his wife who both took care of us at the tasting room. Super nice people, down to earth, great wine. Hope to enjoy one of their winemaker dinners, everyone in town raves about their chef. Absolutely check this place out“
“No idea why Yelp threw away my previous review. This is one of my very favorite wineries. Their Pinot noirs are especially magnificent. The staff is knowledgeable and charming. They also have outdoor picnic tables where we often have a glass of wine and a picnic lunch.“
“Come one come all to This amazing winery!! I can not can not say enough about how amazing their wine taste. Their GSM's are so unique and taste like nothing I've ever had and I mean this in a positive way!! Become a member before it's too late. Best winery I have ever been too! They have surpassed my expectations in every way!! Sarah our hospitality director was amazing. She is wonderful and so knowledgeable about their wines and each wines comes with an amazing story behind it.“
“Great atmosphere, superb service, and flavorful wines. Hostesses had an extensive vocabulary to precisely describe their wines and their tastes and complexities. There is a wait-list for their membership, which we joined. We can't wait to join.“
“The view outside the tasting room is spectacular. I'd sit outside next time if the weather is nice. Theresa was awesome and told us all about the wines and about the history of Denner. I loved listening to things like how the winemaker blends wines and how the barrel shape changes the taste of the wine.“
“Stopped by @ oso libre this January on my mom's trip . It was an amazing experience. We enjoyed all the wines but our favs are Chardonnay, patron, and carnal . Our highlights were learning about the history of the winery, trying wines outside of the menus, awesome customer service and singing . We will definitely be returning. Extra bonus are the events they host on the property. We wish we could have stayed for the chili this weekend.“
“We were in Paso Robles a couple of weeks ago. There are so many great wineries there. This was our first visit to Volatus. The gal taking care of us was wonderful! Very friendly and made sure we were well taken care of. The wine is great, especially for the price. I very much appreciated the ambiance and the fact that the owner served in the military and flew jets. The tasting room shares another spot with another tasting room. I haven't written a review in about a years, so that just goes to show you what a neat little spot this place is! I can't wait to go back!“
“Incredible wines, even more incredible staff! Seven Oxen was our first winery stop and Nancy absolutely blew us away with her knowledge and welcoming demeanor. She took her time explaining the wines to us and educating us about the winemaking process so we could really appreciate each pour. The wines themselves are more delicate than a lot of other Paso wines which I loved. We also got to try some older vintages and unusual varieties which was so fun! We left with a couple bottles and a new wine club membership. So excited to come back again and again!“
“Had a great tasting with really good service. The gal pouring the wine was knowledgeable and easy to speak with. We enjoyed Pianetta and would highly recommend everyone check if out. It's not fancy inside, but they are reasonably priced and provide nice value for good wine. Check it out!“
“Such a unique tasting experience with the addition of the spiced cheeses! We had a great time and learned so much from Nick who was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. I can’t recommend this place enough. It was also cool to hear the story of the owners. I love how they’ve infused Indian culture throughout.“
