The list has the date on it. See photo. 2. During a tour of the storage facility we saw over 1000 cases of wines - most of which were from a 2003 vintage and some whites dated back to the 1990's. If the list prices for his wines are to believed, this would be about $500,000 worth of unsold inventory that is 15-25 years old. 3. The "collection" of art is everywhere and Keith Nichols says that some of it was worth thousands and available for purchase. Here is the description of the wines offered for tasting: 2005 Sauv Blanc $23 - Sauv Blancs need to be consumed within 5 years of vintage or risk severe oxidation. The 10 year old wine in our glasses was the color of brewed tea and tasted foul. 2001 Chardonnay $31 - The 16 year old wine was fully oxidized with the color of Coca Cola. Tasted foul. 1997 Merlot $49 - 20 year old fully oxidized wine, the color of strong brewed coffee. Tasted foul 2003 Syrah $39 - Fully oxidized wine, the color of strong brewed coffee. Tasted foul 1999 Meritage $49 - Fully oxidized wine, the color of strong brewed coffee. Tasted foul 1996 Cabernet Sauvignon $55 - Fully oxidized wine, the color of strong brewed coffee. Tasted foul Each of the wines went directly to the dump bucket after a tiny sip. When asked when the bottles were opened, Keith responded "earlier today". Also, he volunteered that he prefers to keep his wines 10 years in the bottle before releasing them. When asked where are his wines with a vintage date newer than 2007, he responded that they were all "at the bottler". That raised our suspicions even more that he is able to store 9 years of bottled wine at his bottler - sure Keith, sure. He mulishly collected the $10 per person tasting fee despite the failed tasting event. These are the facts surrounding our tasting. You draw your own conclusions about what is REALLY going on here. Just imagine it has been the same wines in the same spoiled condition for 2.5 years, at least. You have been warned.

Quality/Quantity - After tasting a few wines, I settled on a glass of Pinot Noir. Atmosphere - Small tasting room, bar, indoor, and outdoor seating. Plus tasting. Got lucky, as today they were bottling so we got to experience that a little. And due to the small size, they bottle via a trailer; see pictures. Plenty of Tin City parking, as we got here late and right before closing. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 5pm. Service - Emma was perfect. As usual, we were the only customers. We got all the attention. It felt like we were all just hanging out. (Or she was just so bored, lol). She shared so much information about the winery and Paso Robles. We compared stories and wineries, etc. Lastly, she gave us a tour of the facility as the production just ended. This was unexpected and really appreciated. Price - $18 + generous tip. I just got a glass of their Pinot Noir. Tastings are $20 a person and waived with two bottle purchases. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success at this location since 2019. I can see why you are 5 stars; great service culture.

They were happy to accept us as walk-ins, and offered us our choice of seating. They have outdoor seating and indoor standing tastings at the bar, since we didn't have too much time we opted for a bar tasting with Kirsten (the wife of one of the owners). It was great learning about the wines, and the area of France that they are inspired by. The wines here are a little different than most you see in Paso, they have a lot of white wine and do a decent amount of skin contact on some of them. Some of the wines reminded me of natural wine, which I'm not the biggest fan of, but I know a lot of people who love them. I ended up leaving with a bottle of their 100% Pinot Blanc, a little sweeter than something I would usually go for, but I'm excited to drink it on a nice summer day!

We lucked out because they had some of their other whites open as well, so we were able to try some of those. We were helped by Haley, who was fun to chat with. Ended up getting a bottle of the Cinsault to bring home.

Since then, it has gone downhill. ZERO COMMUNICATION from the winery. I called the following year (remember we are club members now) to schedule another visit. I emailed and left two phone messages. No one ever got back to us. Horrid way to treat club members. I have been trying to leave the club for over a year now. Guess what? No communication back. Now they are charging me for a club allocation I did not want, nor ok, and have in fact requested to not have. Don't go. Horrible winery. There are literally hundreds of wineries in Paso/Templeton that adore their club members. Halter Ranch, Opolo, Graveyard (our favorite), Onx, Sans Liege, Venteux, etc, etc. Skip this one.

I really didn't care for any of them -- most of them were not the mainstream varietals - they were a bit too funky/ different for my tastes. I love the branding, but felt to make a connection here with the wines. Super cute tasting room full of the unique branding that makes this wine a fun wine. Next time, I'd come back and picnic under the trees and buy a few bottles of their standard wines for $25. I didn't really care for the funkier wines served in the wine tasting room. Perhaps that's me, perhaps you'll enjoy it.

We walked in and were a little skeptical because the place looks more like an office setting than a wine tasting/selling room. We were pleasantly surprised tho and the wine was phenomenal! $10 for tasting but it's free if you buy a bottle. I needed up buying two! I first did the red tasting. There wasn't a single wine I didn't like and that's rare for me. I even tried two whites(not a big white wine fan) and I ended up waking away with a white. Our hose was one of the sons. I can't remember his name.... But if you're reading this I was the one who came in with the pregnant DD friend. He guided me through all the wines and how they're made. Even sampled one he's working on. Ended up buying a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc. They also sell some chocolates. I purchased but I haven't tried them yet. 10/10. Can't wait to come back.
