The tour started at 10am cause it would be too hot to be outside in the afternoon. Our tour guy was very professional and knowledgeable about this massive vineyard resort. The tour took about an hour and half and finished with wine tasting in the resort tasting room. We were introduced to the entire property, history and facts about this winery. I really liked the cute goats on the ground. I was worried about them being in the heat and out in the sun. But our tour guy assured me that they made sure the animals stay in shaded areas and drink enough water to stay hydrated. The arts of this place are just fantastic. Owner is a big art collector so he covers quite a few cultures including Buddha (my faith)! All the arts are from the original countries so they are authentic. I loved the amazing art installations throughout the vineyard. My sign Virgo was on the top of the hill so we had to do a mill hike to see it. There is an art tour that we will do next time. I really want to know the details and histories of all the arts here. I was so glad that we decided to do this tour. If you ever visit Paso Robles wine country you might want to check this winery out. The prices were reasonable at $45 per person, $30 for resort guests and complimentary for members (2 people). The hours are Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays at 10am. Reservations are required. Ps. I'd suggest not visit in summer, central coast summer temperatures are unbearable!

For $45, I would expect a decent taste, not a sip. My wife and I decided not to buy wine this time, nothing really stood out. I did decide to buy a jar of olives; the olives had a slight hint of almonds, not a fan. I attempted to close the jar and the lid would not lock in place (unable to get a tight seal). I returned the jar and asked that the hostess notify the own of this issue. The server was great, friendly, and professional. My experience, during a $45 tasting, one should have consumed the equivalent of at least 3/4 of a bottle (I could be wrong). During this tasting, we consumed the equivalent of a half glass of wine.

Given that the 2021 Presidential Inauguration is tomorrow, my husband and I selected one of our…read morefavorite bottles of wine to celebrate change. As we clinked our glasses filled with 2017 Vista Del Rey's Zin-Bera with to cheers, I realized that I had not yet given Vista Del Rey Vineyards the review and credit it deserves. So as they say, 'there's no time like the present." If you want to experience the TRUE Paso Robles wine country--and, as a matter of fact the varietal Zinfandel--from BEFORE it became the next Napa or Sonoma, Vista Del Rey Vineyards (VDRV) is a must-visit! Prior to a weekend wine tasting trip, I had simply Googled where to find the best Zinfandels in Paso. I quickly discovered VDRV while skimming an article that identified all the top Zinfandels in the region. In fact, VDRV's Zin had rated within the top 3 on the list! Not to mention, they were one of the first, original 20 vineyards planted in Paso Robles and they celebrated their 25th year anniversary in 2020. Wowzers! I reached out to the owner and winemaker, Dave and his wife Carol, via their Facebook page; though you can also call them to book. They are not open to the public without a reservation since their winery is on their home's premises. [Also, keep in mind any county wide Covid restrictions]. In order to get to VDRV, you have to drive along some rural, dirt roads to reach a hillside destination up above the town of San Miguel on the eastern slope of the Santa Lucia Mountains. After all, you are driving to reach your destination of  "Vista Del Rey," translated from Spanish as "King's View." Once we arrived, we were greeted not only by a gorgeous 360-degree view, but the lovely couple, Dave and Carol. Oh, and can't forget their friendly dog and cat! Dave opened and introduced us to several bottles of wine including: a 2016 and 2017 Zinfandel, 2018 Barbera Lot 1 & 2, N/V Zin-Bera, 2019 dry Zin Rosé, and 2018 Barbera Dessert Wine. To be honest, all of them were simply spectacular, bold, and exactly what we seek out. I will say that the Zin-Bera was our favorite and such a perfect blend. Although Dave used to produce his own grapes on his vineyard, he eventually refused to continue to water his grapes due to the endless droughts that have impacted the area for decades. Now he sources his grapes from other sustainable, low-irrigation vineyards nearby. Like most small, family-owned businesses, VDRV has been having tough times with their wine club and pandemic relief orders carrying them through. What we loved most (besides the the wine obviously) is that VDRV was unpretentious. Dave and Carol introduced their wines (accepting all input and any criticism), their process, and welcomed conversation and questions. As fellow wine industry folks, it was super low-key and neat that Dave was willing to trade wine evenly as farmers use to do in the 'good olde days.' We continue to support VDRV to this day and it has become one of our favorite and most recommended stops in Paso Robles wine country. With this, I will end on: SUPPORT SMALL & LOCAL (Dave still hand signs each bottle himself!)--especially during this pandemic!

Vista Del Rey Lot"53" Zinfandel…read more I am not a huge fan of Zinfandel and when I do drink it I prefer wines on a much spicier level then the typical Fruit Bombs I get from California. This little winery in Paso Robles produces a few Zinfandels. Also Barbera and Sangiovese. The other Zin that Vista Del Rey produces I recall not liking much as it leaned toward that fruity style. The Lot"53" is a very well rounded Zin with Cranberry, Cinnamon and black pepper on the nose. BBQ ribs would be a must for this wine. I tasted this wine at one of my local hangouts in Whittier. The wine can be found for between $24.00 to $28.00 per bottle at some local wine shops. Cheers

I hadn't visited since the week before everything shut down for COVID, and I'm happy to say it's just as great as I remembered. The vibe is cozy and understated, which is a big part of the charm. It doesn't feel overly commercialized or like they're rushing people in and out; there's a real sense of care behind the experience. The wines are excellent, and the pricing feels very fair, especially since nothing about the experience feels over the top or pretentious. We came on a last-minute trip and weren't able to get a reservation online, but they were kind enough to accommodate us as walk-ins. We spent about an hour there, enjoyed the tasting, and ended up buying a few bottles. We'll definitely be back soon, and I'd love to join the wine club once we start drinking more wine. Highly recommend, just really good quality all around.

Recently, we came back for a mini reunion and made Eberle a place where our party of 8 could relax, unwind, and reminisce of yesteryears while enjoying the beautiful views from the covered vineyard deck, and needless to say we absolutely had a blast! The tasting experience was still complimentary thanks to the blessed heart of Mr. Gary Eberle (thank you kind Sir), who also happened to grill up some delicious meats and smoked sausage that day (Santa Maria style), which was the perfect pairing to his wines. Special mention to Stephanie, who did an phenomenal job guiding us through the last cave tour of the day...and Mr. Eberle, she truly did your story justice (and then some!). WOW!

Unfortunately, it ended up being a bit disappointing for me. The atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, and it wasn't loud at all, which made it easy to sit back and enjoy a conversation with my husband at a comfortable volume. The setting itself was great! Unfortunately, the food was a letdown. We ordered a $24 pizza that had virtually no flavor. The sauce was plain, the cheese was tasteless, and overall, it mostly tasted like plain dough. For me, it was especially disappointing because this was our first stop to kick off our vacation. That said, my husband really enjoyed the lamb, so there was at least one dish that stood out for him. Our waiter was great very kind and understanding and he was nice enough to remove the pizza from our check without any hesitation. I truly appreciated the customer service. Overall, the beautiful setting, relaxing atmosphere, and great service were positives, but I really hope the kitchen works on adding more flavor and seasoning to their pizzas. It's a gorgeous place, and I wanted to love the experience, but unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the setting.
