As my pregnancy is nearing its much-anticipated end (we go in for a scheduled C-section next Friday, October 12th), I have to say that one of the most common questions I've gotten during this whole adventure is "How have you done it??? Don't you miss wine/drinking/alcohol???" As … [Read more...]
Paso Robles Wine, East Vs. West
Today’s post is simple…there has been talk off and on about dividing up Paso Robles wine country into many AVA’s rather than simply use the current Paso Robles AVA. My personal opinion is that this is not good for the area. Most of the people that come to Paso or that buy Paso … [Read more...]
Claiborne and Churchill; Our First Visit to This SLO Winery
One of the things I love about this area is that we have been unable to keep up with and visit all the wineries. This plays perfectly into our ongoing adventure in the San Luis Obispo County wine world! On our way down to Santa Maria for family fun a couple of weeks ago we … [Read more...]

The Winemakers Cookoff; 2012 Was a Hit!
This past Saturday was the 14th annual Winemakers Cookoff here in Paso Robles which is put on by the local Rotary and held at River Oaks Hot Springs. It was our fourth year attending the event and it’s always a great time. This is one of those events that seems to be mostly local … [Read more...]
The Romance of Wine
I think that living in wine country and always being around it makes one lose some of the romantic feelings about wine. When you’re constantly around it and most of the people you know are directly involved in the industry you start hearing a lot of what goes on behind the … [Read more...]
Paso Robles; Recent Wine Fun
There’s always something going on in Paso Robles…and recently we went to a couple of events that were pretty damn fun! The first was out at Mondo Cellars, an event they call Sunset Happy Hour, which starts at 5pm and goes to sunset. There’s live music, a varying menu of food … [Read more...]
