The Paso Robles appellation’s warm days, cool nights, and long growing season contribute to exceptional balance, texture, and structure in Cabernet Sauvignon and red Bordeaux varietal wines, recognized by sommeliers, journalists, and sophisticated consumers as among the best in the world.

“While Paso Robles has been synonymous with the Rhône movement for over a decade now, it is worth noting the quality of the Bordeaux varieties coming from these limestone hills today, said Jeb Dunnuck, RobertParker.com, August 31, 2016.  “I’m increasingly seeing incredible wines based largely on Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and other Bordeaux varieties from Paso Robles,” “While it may be hard for readers to believe, trust me when I tell you that these top-quality releases are a match for the best wines from California’s North Coast,” he added.

Tickets for this exceptional event are $65. Designated drivers are encouraged, for which tickets are $35 each. For more information or to purchase tickets, please visit pasoroblescab.com/events.
