4 Local Winery Favorites For Red Wine In Paso Robles

Paso Robles, also known as wine country here on the Central Coast, has over 200 wineries! That means you could try a new winery every day, Monday through Friday, and it would take you almost an entire year to do.

Luckily, we’ve got you covered, keep reading for the top 4 local winery favorites for red wine in Paso Robles.
