Only six
weeks away, the PRWCA (pasowine.com) spans the May 14-17 weekend with more
things to do and see than ever. The Paso Robles Wine Country Association at the
above site is the place to get all the details and purchase tickets. Out of
necessity, the number of attendees at the various events are limited and have
sold out in the past. So you might start making plans to ensure you get to
those you are interested in attending.
Some changes to the Grande Tasting portion of the Fest may
be of interest. These include new and improved picnic and music facilities. Pre-packed
box lunches are available for a modest fee. Menus and payment can be made on
line and enjoyed in the picnic area.
The Garagiste organization will be running a lounge area. If
not familiar to you, these small lot winemakers offer some delicious and hard
to find wines. Two other groups, Paso Rhone Rangers and the fairly recent Cab
Collective will offer pop-up seminars. Art studios will also display their work
in the park.
Two morning seminars will showcase the Paso AVA and the
eleven sub-sets that are now allowed on local labels. Winemaker dinners are
also planned and there is a Reserve Tasting and auction as well. So join with
us in "Darn Near Paradise" for the biggest gathering of the year.
