Another amazing trip for the books. I do not go to California often enough, but every time I go it gets even more beautiful. This time I wanted to go to wine country. Not Napa Valley, but the other one many people overlook, Paso Robles! There are great wines in Paso Robles and if I HAD to choose which winery I had the best experience at, it would be Austin Hope. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. I was greeted with a glass of refreshing rosé and given a tour of the winery itself! Austin Hope had a warm and cozy atmosphere and is a great place to picnic.
The places I encountered on this trip are:
DAOU Family Estates at Paso Robles, California
I’m still in awe about how beautiful this place is. I’m adding it to the list of “places to retire” LOL.
I say not L.A and not the Bay because Pismo Beach is smack dab in the middle. Also because I bought the coolest sweatshirt from a shop called Esteem Surf Co. LOL. This cute town has a lot to offer including an easy drive to wineries and a beautiful state park.
