Favorite Romantic Vacations: Paso Robles Wineries

By Chris Werner


Some vacations that mix the Hearst Castle and a small winery town with over 200 wineries is the perfect weekend vacation. Paso Robles has over 200 wineries and this is my favorite winery choices.

Overlooking the pacific ocean, Adelaida sits on sloping terrains and chalk rock limestones. With this, Adelaida Cellars Inc. has very well managed its unique location and climate to producing the best of the best in California. With over 145 acres of farmlands, Adelaida has employed the use of ecological and organic method to farming and wine making. In 2010, it was given an awards for its dedication to promoting sustainable practices.

Hoffman Mountain Ranch is one of their more distinguished vineyards of Adelaida Cellars in Paso Robles. With the use of the best locally grown grapes in cultivating their wine, in effect, the area has prospered significantly in terms of the wine industry. This winery can be traced all the way back to 1964 and has now sealed their expertise in Burgundian varieties. Even though their stocks are limited, their Pinot Noir is still one of the best sellers of Adelaida Cellars Inc.

Anna's Estate Vineyard was primarily an experiment before it realized that their operations is reliable and has the potential to succeed. Clone and rootstock is integration in making their wines and in turn, it has given all their blends this specific essence that has caught everyone's attention. They are very well-known for their earthy and chocolate-y flavor. Named after Elizabeth Van Steenwyk's grandmother, their Syrah wine is their specialty.

Among all the Adelaida wineries, Michael's Estate Vineyard is the only one that works with dry farm land. With its numerous different slopes and hills, it provide great source of different flavors in which the estate easily take advantage to. Among their high-quality wine varietals, their Zinfadels is truly their main focus and has ever since been revered by their guests.

Famous for their Cabernet Sauvignon, you may never guess that Viking Estate Vineyard just began in 2007. The terrain where it is on may be challenging to planting wine grapes. To compensate for it, they concentrated on certain varieties of wine such as Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Petit Verdot, Syrah as well as Cabernet Sauvignon. By doing this, their wines are of high-standard and caused people to flock to their estate to taste it.

Built and managed by Don Van Steenwyk, Bobcat Crossing Estate Vineyard has earned the hearts and taste buds of wine enthusiasts. It is individualized in Adelaida Cellars as the sole manipulator of farming on sandy loam lands. They have managed to harvest varieties of Portuguese crops that are transformed into Touriga Nacional, Tinto Cao and Souzoa, and Muscat Blanc. Aside from that, they are also known for their single-blend techniques in wine making that brings out a fruit and acidic tang in their vino, most especially their superior Touriga Nacional.
