Blow up that pink flamingo pool float and slice up that seedless watermelon. It’s pool party time in Paso Robles Wine Country! Whether you rock an itsy-bitsy bikini, board shorts or your  sun-tanned birthday suit, there’s nothing like chilling out with some chill wine. When temperatures heat up and you’re dying to cool down, reach for crisp Paso Robles wine and head for the nearest diving board. Just like your trusty “80s summer hits” playlist, these refreshing wines are always a crowd pleaser. Splash on in. The wine’s fine!

1. Sculpterra Winery 2018 Sauvignon Blanc


It’s lime-o-clock somewhere. With a garden-fresh quality that dazzles from start to finish, this cool summer wine is vibrant and fun—perfect for a carefree day at the pool. Overall, it’s light-bodied and well balanced with classic aromas of key lime, tart apple and honeydew. The mouthfeel guarantees green apples and fresh chopped herbs, while citrus flavors move into juicy tangy pear and grapefruit on the palate. Cannon ball!

Pair with: Lime-marinated fish tacos
Float: Cast off your to-dos and recline into this fabulous slice of lime.

2. Robert Hall 2018 Rosé de Robles


Pop open a berry good summer sipper. This pink delight is bursting with aromas of fresh stone fruit and hints of raspberry and tangerine. Bright red berry fruit and citrus zest flavors echo the aromas (oh-so-tangy and tantalizing). Refreshing and dry, the Rosé de Robles is medium-bodied with a balanced acidity that lingers on the tongue. Buy a few extra bottles—this one will be gone way before it’s time to reapply that SPF.

Pair with:Berry and goat cheese salad drizzled with honey.
Float: This raspberry colored mermaid pool float will transform any old pool into an otherworldly domain.

3. Seven Oxen 2017 Rosé


Dive off the deep end. Like a luxurious solo swim in a fancy pool, Seven Oxen’s 2017 Rosé feels exclusive. Made in a pressée style, it was produced from estate grapes harvested just for this wine (that means it’s very special indeed). Composed of 67% Grenache and 33% Mourvèdre, you’ll savor notes of strawberry, raspberry, currant, and rose petals. Fermented in stainless steel then aged for five months in neutral oak barrels, only 120 cases of this fruit forward wine were produced. Chill for at least an hour before drinking and celebrate all summer long knowing you enjoyed a truly stellar selection! VIPs only.
Pair with: Prosciutto, mozzarella, and basil crostini.
Float: This life-size glitter rose pool float is a bottle of fun. Don’t forget to share with your friends.

4. JUSTIN Winery 2017 Viognier


The tropics await. Viognier’s rich texture, aromas of ripe stone fruit, citrus, tropical fruit, and floral perfume have been updated for refined, modern tastebuds. JUSTIN Viognier is an appealing expression of this variety’s potential with a New World Paso Robles twist. It’s a full bodied, drier style, with mouth-filling texture and a long finish. Of course, you’ll still get that yummy tropical flavor—it wouldn’t be summer without it.

Pair with: Blue corn chips with peach, red onion, and pineapple salsa
Float: A pineapple under the sea? Poolside is even better. Hop on and float away to your own tropical oasis.

Already turning heads and making a splash, the wine has claimed 99 points, double gold, and was featured as best of class at the California State Fair. Notes of strawberry and citrus offer up classic California summer appeal. Juicy, right?
Pair with: Fruit salad with wilted spinach, strawberries, and poppyseed dressing.
Float: Hop on this ripe strawberry float and you’ll feel like the shiniest specimen in the basket.
