Cool down at Iron Oaks Winery

Chill out: It’s pretty hot out there, folks! If the raging summer heat has you feeling unmotivated, we get it. Paso Robles is pretty warm this time of year, to put it mildly.

On a sweltering summer day, swing by Iron Oaks Winery, where the air conditioning is icy and the beef jerky is spicy. Yep, this laid back wine tasting room raises its own beef! We’ll raise a chilled glass to that.
