    I've ordered wine from here before, but finally made it to their tasting room on 6/14/125 and had a great experience. The owner Cole immediately got us seated and we started with a tasting of their reds. All of the wine was delicious. The tasting was $25 each, but they wave the fee if you purchase two bottles. I bought four of my favorite bottles. They provide a nice carrying bag that protected the bottles. The location is super clean with lots of parking nearby. I really love their wine glasses too. Definitely check them out!

    Had a really nice tasting at Stilson Cellars. Non pretentious tasting room in Downtown Paso Robles with really nice wine. They had a really nice Rose' named after Ray who we had the pleasure of having served us. Rose' Ray was the name of the wine. Anyway so glad we stopped by. Thanks for an interesting hour or so!

    I traveled to Paso Robles for a couple work meetings, but decided to spend a little time exploring more of the Paso area. Walking around the park I saw the sign for wine tasting at Stilton Cellars and decided to check them out. They offer two tasting flights, one with both wine and red and an all red flight, which I choose. I was very pleased to the wines I tasted. Deb, my guide through my tasting was very pleasant and knowledgeable about her wines. My favorite was Aware a Zinfandel dedicated to the wine makers deceased Firefighter father. I had to take 2 bottles home to enjoy later. This is a very nice tasting room slightly off the beaten path worth the short walk off the square.

    I come to Paso every year and have not explored much in downtown. Happily someone recommended this place. One of the owners Deb was there to welcome us and tell us about the wine and the story behind how she (and her sons) started the brand. Wine was so good I signed up for a membership. Laid back atmosphere in the best way. Looking forward to next years visit.

    We had a bachelorette party and this place was so fun and welcoming! Lovely ambiance and great service from Cole! Thank you for the lovely experience. Also side note but I really appreciate the hooks on the barrels to hold our bags

    Excellent service and descriptions by our server who also was the owner . Great tasting wines , nice atmosphere , First time here, looks new . Will be back again next time in town !

    Our four fall club selections, including the very special Aware.

    Yesterday was our third time visiting Stilson. To say it's become a favorite would be a fact!! The wines are wonderful and hearing Cole describe each one is enlightening and educational. Along with that, and what brings us back, is the warmth and hospitality Cole and his mom Deb so easily pour out (along with pouring wine!) We can never be in Paso without a visit. This time, and our first time ever, we joined their wine club! Looking forward to having Stilson in our home all the time, and coming back in spring for the pickup party. Thanks, Cole, for a lovely hour, and so glad we got to meet your bride, Elizabeth!

    The amazing wine, relaxing atmosphere and friendly service are what makes this winery top notch! Make sure you stop by for a visit!

    Had an amazing time visiting Stilton Cellars this weekend. We arrived early Sunday afternoon and were the only ones there at the time. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. I'm a novice when it comes to wine and learned so much about grapes in the region and the special blend process they use. Debbie took us on an amazing curated selection of wines during the Principle Tasting. We started with The Reverie 100% Vionier and ended with the Genesis 80% Syrah 20% Mourvèdre. ALL EXCEPTIONAL we left with 3 bottles and some candles crafted out of their special bottles. We even met "Ray" who their Rose Ray is named after. Definitely going back. Thanks Debbie and Ray for making our visit to Paso Robles so memorable!!

I stopped in to share a bottle of bright, festive Champagne with a friend and immediately understood why this place has such a loyal following. The staff has that rare ability to make you feel like a regular, even on your first visit. Genuine smiles, easy conversation, and hospitality that never feels rehearsed. The interior is a designer's dream--warm, layered, a little smoky, and filled with interesting textures that invite you to slow down and look around. Truth be told, I originally wandered in as a location scout for Alchemyic Artisan, but I happily stayed for the bubbles and the ambiance. And if the moon happens to be in the right mood, you may have the pleasure of meeting Melane'... an intuitive with an infectious spirit who occasionally appears to be quietly crocheting while waiting for the next spiritual download to arrive. If you're lucky enough to have her read your tarot cards, lean in. Whether you're a believer or simply curious, she's an absolute delight. Come for the Champagne. Stay for the conversation. Leave inspired. A must-stop for anyone who appreciates great wine, thoughtful design, and places with genuine soul.

Street parking available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here on a Friday afternoon and grabbed a spot at the patio nook. It is a bit hotter than the inside, but that's because it has more sunlight hitting the room. For the wine tasting, we got one white and three reds. Makes sense since we were in Paso and they're famous for their big bold reds. I did enjoy their cabernet sauvignon the most in the tasting, however the puors were less than an oz, which was just enough to get a sip in. I was disappointed in that especially as a potential buyer looking to get understand the wine a bit more than a two sipper. THE FINAL BAMBOO: A wine tasting of four wines with a very miniscule tasting pours was around $40.

The cheeses are coated with the different blends of LXV's own herbs and spices, adding a unique layer of flavor to each tasting.

Our first stop when we arrived in Paso. We've been to so many wineries, this would be one of our top 10. The spice pairing is unique but pairs so well with the wine. Buy 3 bottles to waive the fee. Since it's more of boutique, the bottles are quite pricey, mostly ranging near the 100s. But it was our favorite the whole weekend we went there. And we bought 6 bottles. We loved the spell and got 3 bottles of that! It's a Syrah cab blend. Has the Paso flavor that we love. It's not a vineyard, just a tasting room but worth a visit. We met the wine maker too. Friendly and attentive service. Can't wait to pop open a bottle at home soon!

A small bummer at the start was that we arrived before opening at 12PM and were waiting outside with several other guests. Someone unlocked the door, but no one let us know we could come in. About 4 minutes after 12, I tried the door and realized it was unlocked, though none of us had heard or seen it open. Not a huge deal, but a quick welcome would have been nice. After that, everything was fantastic. I love that Justin offers this tasting room separate from their main winery, which is several miles away. Having a location right in the downtown Paso Robles square is so convenient, especially being surrounded by shops and restaurants. I also really loved the setup with tables to sit at versus standing at a bar. They offer wine by the glass as well as different tasting flight options, and they also serve small bites. We heard there are different menus depending on the day, which is a nice touch. Our server greeted us quickly, brought water right away, and got our first tasting to us fast. She was very knowledgeable about the wines and did an excellent job explaining each one. Since we were in a bit of a hurry to catch a flight, she kindly brought all of our tastings out at once, clearly labeled, walked us through them, and let us enjoy at our own pace. We really appreciated that. Wish we had more time here. Highly recommend. Also, if you join their wine club, your tastings are complimentary, which is a great perk!

My first visit was back in December 2019, before any of us knew what was coming in 2020. A group of us girls were in Paso Robles for the weekend, ended up here during our wine tasting adventures, and had the BEST time. I still remember us sitting around laughing, drinking wine and enjoying ourselves so much that we practically shut the place down. It became one of those memories from that trip that always stuck with me. Fast forward to September 2026, and I was back in Paso celebrating my 45th birthday with my partner. I told her there was one little wine tasting spot I really wanted to find again. Sure enough, I found Indigené, tucked away in the same little alleyway I remembered, and we headed over after brunch. And once again, SUCH A GOOD TIME. Raymond, the owner, is an absolute gem. We sat outside at one of the high-top tables tucked into the alley and settled in for our tasting. As locals came in and out to say hello, you could immediately tell Raymond is someone who is genuinely loved in the community. It didn't feel stuffy or overly serious. It felt like sitting around with good people, talking, laughing and drinking some really good wine. We started with a tasting and let's just say...the pours kept coming. There were several wines I really enjoyed, but the 100% Syrah was definitely one that stood out to me. We ended up buying a few bottles to take home, and by the time we finally got off those stools, we both knew an afternoon nap was calling our names. Almost seven years between visits and somehow the same great feeling. Indigené is officially one of our Paso stops now. Whenever we're back in town, we're stopping in to see Raymond. Good wine. Great people. Even better vibes.

She's a treasure! There's an unmistakable sense of warmth and community here. Even during the short time we spent there, a steady stream of people stopped in for a glass or simply to exchange greetings, which speaks volumes about how welcoming and inviting the atmosphere truly is. Hint: Find them in the alleyway...not from the street.
