With sprawling green lawns, fragrant flowers and plenty of comfy outdoor lounge furniture to kick back on, you’ll find yourself falling down the rabbit hole in no time!
Greet the birds at Brecon
A little birdie told us you were looking for a pastoral place to while away the hours under a clear blue sky. Sounds like you need to savor the small batch estate wines at Brecon Estate, by far the best place to get your picture-perfect picnic fix! Discover the story that lives within each precious bottle and bask in the natural beauty all around you. Surrounded by acres of leafy vines, the patio and garden area is a lush, cool locale where wine education meets enlightenment. Take your time exploring the lively lineup, which includes crisp, refreshing whites, unique, exciting reds and premium estate and single vineyard discoveries. Smart bird, right?

The real deal at Rangeland
Want to understand the true terroir of Paso Robles Wine Country? Well, my friend, you’ve come to the right place. Steeped in agricultural tradition and inspired by the dynamic microclimate, Rangeland Wines offers up boutique bottles grown as close to the soil as you can get. Sip field-crafted, sustainably made wines under the shade of stately trees all overlooking a glassy pond. Bold red blends are a speciality here (as is their estate grass-fed beef, which you can totally take home with you). That’s Paso Robles, all right: where cowboy hats and high caliber wine collide.

Over the hills and far away at Sixmilebridge
No need to roam too far. At Sixmilebridge, the dream is as simple as it is accessible: to make the finest small batch, premium Bordeaux style blends and Cabernet Sauvignon. Who doesn’t love that? To achieve this aim, the winemaker pulls exclusively from organically farmed westside Paso Robles estate vineyards (you’ve got to try these offerings to understand their majesty). Luckily for us fashionistas, Sixmilebridge’s chic outdoor tasting room feels as if it were torn from a faraway fairytale land where high style and cool design unite. Meet you there!?
