There are so many paths that take people into opening a winery! One of the most interesting first careers? Being a real-life Top Gun fighter pilot! That’s exactly what drew us to visit Volatus Wines.

When seven generations of a family focus on growing grapes and making wine, wonderful things result. We recently experienced some of those wonderful things when we visited Steinbeck Vineyards and Winery.

It was Day Two of our Paso Robles trip and we were so excited that we were breakfasted, checked out of our hotel, and ready for wine tasting uncharacteristically early. Luckily, many Paso Robles open early, so our day of tasting got off to a great start at Eberle Winery.

Wine tasting in Paso Robles offers so many options! After a full afternoon of winery visits, we were ready to wrap up day one with a totally unique tasting flight at LXV Wines.
