Not too far off the 46 West from the 101, lies L’Aventure Winery and Tasting Room.\u00a0 It’s a little bit of\u00a0 an adventure out a partially dirt road but if you’re into scenery, it’s worth it!\u00a0 And even if you’re not, it’s still worth it!!!\u00a0 Stephan Asseo, owner and Winemaker, and his family have been in the wine business since the early 80’s, starting in France.\u00a0 He’s got a lot of experience, and brought his art to the US, well to Paso Robles in 1996 where he’s been making wine and pleasing palates ever since.\u00a0 The wines are made in a sustainable way, and they’re done by hand for the ultimate reflection of the “terrior”.\u00a0 Situated in the Templeton Gap, the grapes get the heat of the day as well as the cool breezes at night.\u00a0 This results in the maximum flavor of the grape variety coming out in the wines.\u00a0 From the way the vines were planted, to how they’re pruned and cared for, as well as the soils and water source, these wines are cared for from start to finish.\u00a0 We think that this all shows when you show up and taste.\u00a0 L’Aventure has gained what some might call a cult following, for the high-quality wines that will blow the palate away with gentle, yet pronounced aromas and flavors.<\/p>\n
We got to interview Riley, one of the pouring artistes in the tasting room.\u00a0 She told us all about the wines, the winery, and the L’Aventure culture…all right in front of the beautiful mural that renowned artist Erwin Dazelle freehanded on their tasting room wall!<\/p>\n
Make a sandwich or put together a cheese plate and head out to the tasting room to enjoy all that this beautiful location has to offer!<\/p>\n
