We spent one day touring the wineries of Paso Robles, the newest wine growing region of California. This area has acres and acres of vineyards and olive trees and pistachio orchards. Beautiful to look at…… and tasty products! With over 200 different wineries in this area, we could only hope for a small sampling…….
One of the wineries that we enjoyed touring was Sculpterra, which was unique in blending outdoor sculptures and art work with the business of wine making…..starting with this elaborate iron work gate.
Sculpterra had beautiful gardens……
With outdoor seating areas for events.
Then, there were the sculptures………here a cat, their logo, and a bucking horse….
A cheetah lounging in a tree…..
Elephants and Pumas……
And a flowing mermaid…..
After a wine tasting at Sculpterra, we went to another winery for a lunch of crab cakes.
Next, we stopped by the Eberle Winery for a tour of their underground caves where they store their wine.
And conduct wine tastings and other events………so cool!
We enjoyed discovering a few new wines, and loved touring this area which may one day be as well known for their wines as the Napa Valley………..
