As you drive Highway 101 South into Paso Robles, Santellan Vineyards and Inn is one of the first w**eries you’ll spot. A beautifully updated tasting room and their main vacation rental are perfectly located right off the 101 so you can stop for a w**e tasting and snack before continuing into town. The laid-back, park-like setting allows for family-friendly tasting with a beautiful fish pond filled with reeds on your way to the tasting room. Reds, whites, sparkling, and fruit w**es grace the menu and they plan to soon offer a tasting flight of each. We were surprised to see 13% pomegranate and raspberry w**e available that were incredible! We also tried Symphony, a lime-infused, summer-perfect w**e that is deliciously reminiscent of a margarita. Owner Scott Santellan said his red fruit w**es have a zin base, so sugar-driven headaches are a thing of the past! He discussed his plans for his future fruit w**e line up to include peach, mango, and cherry w**es. Scott also has great interest in producing low-sulfate w**es through a natural gravity filtration process perfected from a mentor of his in Mexico, meaning he plans on creating w**es that reduce the hangover effect as much as possible. Both the Vineyard Estate and Santellan Cottage are on AirBnB/VRBO and their beautiful backdrops make them an easy venue choice for weddings and other events. Scott has great plans for his vineyard and we’re excited to witness its growth! Look out Paso, here comes Santellan!
