He invited us out because he was barbequing at the Tasting Room (although he wasn\u2019t supposed to be in town but after some airplane issues he was unable to leave for the weekend) and thought it would be good for us to come out.<\/p>\n<p>A side note, most things in life aren\u2019t as you may perceive them\u2026and one thing Hoot had perceived was that Gary was an outspoken guy\u2026well, that perception was true but the misunderstanding on Hoot\u2019s part was that his outspokenness was not from arrogance, it is from a place of feeling passionately about wine and even more importantly, feeling passionately about Paso Robles.<\/p>\n<p>Through getting to know Gary from his commenting on our blog and then spending damn near six hours out at the winery with him and his wife Marcy that day, we even got invited back to their home on the property, Hoot (and Annie) learned so much about wine and the history of Paso Robles that we\u2019re still talking about it. But more importantly, we witnessed and learned so much about Gary and what makes him tick.<\/p>\n<p>We were thoroughly impressed with the stories and knowledge, as well as the hospitality Gary and Marcy showed us.\u00a0 All this enjoyed on a lazy Saturday afternoon spent with the Eberles and \u00a0friends, Dahlynn and Ken McKowen.<\/p>\n<p>The moral of the story is that you can\u2019t judge a book by its cover (heard that one before?) and you can\u2019t judge a wine by its label, and you definitely don\u2019t know a person until you sit down with them over a glass of wine.\u00a0 We had an awesome time with Gary and Marcy and look forward to spending more time with them, over wine or not.\u00a0 The history, hospitality, and friendship that people are willing to share can be a pretty awesome thing!\u00a0 A huge THANK YOU and CHEERS to Gary and Marcy!!!<\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px;height: 15px\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zemanta.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: medium none;float: right\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_a.png?x-id=c0f41032-0eb9-457d-8a25-67552b89f603\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About a week and a half ago, we had the opportunity to go out to Eberle Winery here in Paso Robles, after Mr. Eberle (Gary)&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","filesize_raw":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4,9],"tags":[173,368,370,487,557,561],"class_list":{"0":"post-919","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-central-coast-wineries","7":"category-fun","8":"category-wine-types","9":"tag-eberle-winery","10":"tag-paso-robles","11":"tag-paso-robles-california","12":"tag-tasting-room","13":"tag-wine-tasting","14":"tag-wine-types","15":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Judging a Wine by its Label?
