Cougar Vineyard & Winery

They specialize in Italian varietals! But they have a number of non-Italian varietals too. And was really surprised at how much I enjoyed their White Cabernet. Yup... you heard right... WHITE CAB. It's light and refreshing.... fruity but not sweet.... on the dry side. It's a lovely rose to sit by the pool and relax with. Get a little bit of Italy while you are enjoying you Temecula Wine Tasting adventures.

Cinquain Cellars

Painting by Agata Zaborowski

Planted, 
pruned, picked, and pressed, 
all by hand, on our land, 
we share our art form and passion, 
with you.


This simple 5-line poem called a Cinquain (pronounced seen-cane), embodies the spirit of Cinquain Cellars, from nurturing 10,000 vines on our estate vineyard to crafting small lots of artisan wines for your pleasure. Owner and winemaker, David Nagengast likes to think of Cinquain wine as bottled poetry and hopes you will agree.
 

Alta Colina Vineyards & Winery

In 2003, after 35 years as an engineer by day, and a home winemaker by night, Bob Tillman found the 130-acre parcel in Paso Robles' Adelaida District that would become Alta Colina Vineyard. The 31 planted acres and 8 Rhone varieties that make up Alta Colina Vineyard hit the dirt in 2005 and his daughter, Maggie Tillman, came on in 2008 to help in the efforts. With a complete focus on estate-grown Rhones, Bob crafts about 2,000 cases a year and continues to sell the remainder of the fruit to other great Rhone winemakers throughout the Central Coast. Quality, legacy, and love of the land are Bob's signature.

Midnight Cellars Winery

Their wines were good, and actually moderately priced. The one that really stood out was their Gemini a Zinfandel-Syrah blend? They were offering a significant discount if we bought a bottle of the 05 and the 06, and that was too good to pass up. We also picked up a bottle of their Full Moon a Zinfandel, Syrah and Cab Franc blend.

Worth a stop if you are in Paso.

Norman Vineyards

Norman Vineyards was established in 1971 when Art and Lei Norman realized their dream of growing grapes and making wine.

They spent weekends scouting for the perfect site before settling on their Adelaida site in Paso Robles. Art and Lei fine-tuned their viticultural skills over they years supplying highly sought after grapes to several wineries.

Painting by Agata Zaborowski

tory is about a father and son, James and Manoli Boutzoukas embarking on a journey to build a legacy, both of whom have a passion for the outdoors, farming, and of course - fine wine. Originally this father and son team lived in Florida, where wine grapes have a difficult time thriving. So, when the opportunity presented itself to purchase 2 premium vineyard sites in the Adelaida District of Paso Robles this father and son's dream started to form.  

Now with over 52 acres of planted vines between the two sites and 12 different varietals, the foundation is in place to achieve their dreams. Hard work, sustainable farming practices, and a focus on quality over quantity are reflected in Bout Cellar wines and represent a legacy is being built upon.

McPrice Myers Wine Company

Mac got into food and wine during his early twenties via his friends and coworkers at Trader Joe's in Southern California. He soon began taking trips up to the Central Coast to just to taste, but quickly found himself volunteering his time on his days off to help out at a number of wineries. After learning the process for a few years and spending more and more time on the Central Coast, Mac was ready to start making wine for himself.
