Long ago, you said I “do’ (or maybe just “I’ll move in”). Whatever your arrangement with your better half, one thing’s certain: Quarantine has not helped the romance factor. Working from home, schooling from home and, yes, “date night-ing” from home has taken a toll on even the spiciest couples. What can we do? We say it’s time get outside in the sun, enjoy some world class wine, and simply let your love breathe! Dinner and movie might still be a ways out, but you can get the spark back with these awesome Paso Robles Wine Country experiences. Whether under the stars or the big blue sky, we can promise you one thing: You’re sure to see your sweetie smile.
Find your love nest
Removed, but not too far: Need some quality time to reconnect with your love life? Book one of Paso’s gorgeous and intimate vacation rentals, where you’ll have the whole place to your yourselves. Here, windows open up to vibrant vineyards and you’re never far from a stellar sip. The Guest House at Copia Vineyards is perfectly situated (just 1.5 miles from downtown Paso, yet surrounded by 20 acres of lush, grape-studded greenery and breathtaking views). Nestled within the heart of the Willow Creek District, this modern, open-concept cottage offers up a relaxing retreat not far from dining, boutique shopping and wineries. Of course, you receive a complimentary bottle of their gorgeous, premium wine when you stay and you can purchase more wine from owners, Anita or Varinder, who are just a short stroll away from your new front door. You’ll also receive a personal tour of their 20 acre estate vineyard carpeting the surrounding hills and a fab complimentary wine tasting experience. Yes, it’s the best of both worlds! Stay in or get some sun…either way, joy is on the agenda.

Passionate picnicking
A languid lunch that lingers on: Four Lanterns Winery knows a thing or two about enjoying Westside Paso’s picturesque weather: their ample lawn perfect for breezy outdoor tastings among the chirping birds and buzzing bees.

We recommend an assortment of chocolates, cheeses, local bread, and a big, soft blanket perfect for lounging and looking up at the sky. Have a “third wheel” with a wagging tail in tow? No worries!
