    Caliza story behind the name
    Mirna P.

    One of the winery's you can be in a sophisticated ambiance and just relax with some delicious wine. I read the story of Caliza winery via the "Paso Robles App," so we knew who was the winemaker and the owners story. To our surprise we entered the tasting room and the owner was RIGHT THERE I wanted to ask to take a picture with him but I felt a bit shy and embarrassed. They have such an amazing story that it made our experience that much better! We truly enjoyed all the wines but left with our two favorites the Reserve Syrah and ROSE. The Reserve Syrah bottle is hands down the most beautiful bottle Thank you all the way from Texas!!

    Beautiful

    Great interior and exterior sitting area . Wines are great quality but in higher end of prices. Wines tasting is 30$ per person and matching cheese plate is 25$ BUT you can buy a bottle for 50$ drink some and take home the rest of the bottle . Not bad for relaxing

    This is a hidden jam! For people like me who only focus on quality of wine but not beautiful ambiance or spectacular views, most of the wine tasting reviews on Yelp or YouTube are irrelevant for me. This small winery mainly focus on Rhône style blends, has a lot of other interesting blends and single grape varietals to offer. We were there on Monday morning at 11am, the only group of wine tasting guest. It was the date right after the Paso Robles Wine Festival that ended on Sunday, so we were lucky to taste extra samples that were leftover from the day before. The original flight consisted of five wines - 1 Rose and 4 reds for just $30, which was considered very reasonable in Paso Robles. But we were given 4 extra reds from the leftover. Overall the wines were very good compared to most of the other Paso Robles wineries, particularly those common names that you could find in supermarket or wine shops. I really like their Rose ( aka "Pink" ) that consisted on 85% Grenache and 15% Mourvedre. It was very refreshing on nose and on palate, with good complexity and medium length of finish. The 100% Grenache that was fermented in concrete tank instead of in oak barrel ( it was not on the tasting menu ), was outstanding! It's pale in color and light in body as Pinot Noir, but it's elegant & refreshing on the nose and on palate. with round and beautiful lingering finish. The other "Grenache" on the tasting menu that was fermented in oak barrel, consisted of 93% Grenache and 5% Syrah, was fuller in body and complex on palate but I really loved the one using concrete tank. It's so unique and I have never tasted such beautiful 100% Grenache so far, not from US, Spain or France. The "Sympatico", which consisted of 60% Tempanillo, 22% Grenache, 8% Syrah, 5% Mourvedre and 5% mataro, was another stunner! It's beautiful on the nose and complex on the palate with medium+ finish. We were also given the Reserve Syrah ( not on the tasting menu ) to taste. It's spicy on nose, complex on the palate with beautiful and round finish, loved it! All the wines are not cheap but I think they are reasonably prices with high QPR, especially if you join their wine club you'll get 20% off. In fact we joined their wine club on spot as we all loved most of their wines. Their staff, Maury ( I hope I got his name right ) was super friendly, knowledgable and passionate about wine. He served us very professionally and was patience to answer all our questions. He also recommended ( upon our requests ) so other interesting/good wineries and restaurants for us, thank you so much Maury!

    Tastings $30 be sure to pair with the cheese extra $20.

    Winery is tucked away up on Pacific and quite relaxing. Weather couldn't be better and the wine is tasty. Recommend

    After nearly 15 years of visiting Paso Robles wineries I finally found myself at Caliza Winery. Located at the end of a maintained, but not quite paved, road you'll find this hidden gem of a winery. Most of the locals know it well, and I've even had it scouted for quite some time. But the opportunity never presented itself to visit. We made plans late July to visit some nearby Paso Robles wineries, checking off my list of never-before-visited spots. We first stopped at Booker and then to Caliza. Both the aesthetic and vibe were a total juxtaposition. One that I appreciated. Caliza beckons a time in Paso Robles past. One where wine was approachable, affordable, and all estate. Where locals owned both the vineyard and winery and you'd see them all pouring for you. Caliza brings back memories of this Paso. Combined with their expert knowledge of the terroir and winemaking, Caliza is one of the best wineries in the area. When we arrived we were immediately greeted by our (now favorite) wine pourer, Maury. He guided us with stories, jokes, and all the knowledge and wine one could consume. It was blissful. While the tasting room and outside seating is comfortable and beautiful, don't expect a perfectly curated environment. I wouldn't expect it any other way. Definitely opt for the cheese pairing - they do a fantastic job sourcing cheeses including locally made. Our favorite was a cheese made by a local high school student! We've returned since then to taste and have had equally lovely experiences. So much so, we joined the wine club. Caliza is the real deal in Paso. Take that dead end road (wave to Booker as you drive by) and enjoy the delights Caliza has to offer.

    Wine is most definitely a subjective thing. What I may find delightful, someone else may find to be terrible. I'm sure many a sommelier would disagree, but for the average person just hoping to relax with something pleasing to their palate, it's hard to review a winery just for wines alone. For that reason, I'm usually more interested in steering people towards friendly establishments with good atmosphere. And Caliza does just that. Located just off Hwy 46, but far enough down Anderson Road that it feels a bit more secluded, you'll find the small Caliza tasting room. Compared to some of the fortress like tasting rooms visible from the highway, Caliza is a boutique winery tucked away behind a curve in the road and surrounded by oak trees. It's the kind of winery that grew Paso into what it is today - casual, slower paced, and not focused on busloads of revelers jumping from tasting to tasting. We popped in on a Sunday afternoon with two dogs in tow (the patio is dog friendly) and delighted in being the only people there for part of our tasting. The inside tasting room looked to be a pretty simple bar setup with some artwork and merchandise inside, though most of our time was spent outside. Since we were the only people, we took our seats at some comfy patio furniture with a nice umbrella. Even at nearly 90 degrees outside, the breeze and shade made it quite comfortable. Our tasting was pleasant, with only one wine that wasn't much to our liking. We didn't have to keep going inside for pours, as the staff was happy to come pour on the patio for us since we had the dogs. Perhaps this wouldn't be the case if they were busy, but for slower days like our visit, we appreciated it. The pours were a touch slow because it was a bit harder for the staff to see if we'd finished a wine and were ready to move on, but with a comfortable spot and nice breeze, we certainly didn't mind. Overally a nice little find off Hwy 46 that is worth a visit.

The patio is a beautiful spot to taste, and if you're there later in the day, the sunset views are hard to beat. Definitely do the free cave tour while you're there. It's one of the coolest winery tours I've been on.

If you go, do them a favor and leave with a bottle or two. That's how places like this are able to keep offering experiences like this, and honestly, you'll probably want to take some wine home anyway.

The staff are warm and genuine, and you can feel their pride in both the winery and the wines they produce. The focus here is on GSM blends and other Rhône varietals, along with Bordeaux blends and varietals -- big, bold, and fruit-forward, but balanced enough to keep things interesting glass after glass. We had such a great experience that we joined the wine club before we left. We don't live locally, but the Ecluse Enthusiast membership is absolutely worth it -- especially with only a 6-bottle annual commitment. It's given us a great reason to make Paso an annual trip, and Ecluse is always one of our must-stop favorites. Since joining, the winery has gone through some exciting changes. They've built out a beautiful terrace overlooking the vineyard, and they were acquired by Thibido Winery. We were a little nervous about what that might mean for the brand we loved, but they've stayed true to keeping both labels separate and distinct -- and we've only benefited from it, since we now get to taste wines from both when we come for our annual pickup. We can't wait to spend more time on that terrace during our next visit. If you're putting together a Paso Robles wine itinerary, Ecluse deserves a spot on it.
