Right now, weddings are paused, festivals are on hold and all hot dates have been put on a massive block of ice. Social distancing is frustrating at best, downright heartbreaking at worst. Alas, staying inside doesn’t have to mean giving up the pleasure of enjoying new Paso Robles wine offerings.
In fact, these ingenious Paso Robles tasting rooms have banded together to ensure you can still sip, swirl and smile, all without leaving your couch. During these trying times, a simple joy can go a very long way to boost morale! Plus, you’ll feel good knowing you’re giving back to the local wine industry, which has been hit hard as of late.

Join David Parrish and certified sommelier Vanessa Igel for a drink, a fun live chat and a pairing—plus, get 50% off shipping with code SHIP, 10% off chardonnay and zinfandel with code TEN, and grab Sauvignon Blanc bottles for just $16 each. And Sextant Wines just hosted their first virtual wine tasting Tuesday evening which was attended by over 100 people! There will be more to follow starting April 2 with a newly featured 3-bottle pack that you can order online.
Feeling cooped up around the house? Many Paso Robles Wineries boast their own virtual tours.
