LUCAS &
LEWELLEN
VINEYARDS
Quality Begins in the Vineyards
With Lucas & Lewellen wines, its all about choice, diversity and
keeping it local. Between Lucas & Lewellen Vineyards tasting room, and its
sister tasting room, Toccata, guests can choose from a total of 42 different
wines crafted from 23 grape varieties, including one of the few Mthode
Champenoise style sparkling wines made on the Central Coast. All grapes
are grown on their 400 estate acres in Santa Barbara, incorporating three
distinct microclimates, all of which add up to an amazing mix of wine.
How does a winery make so many wines and make them well? Having a
third-generation grape grower who has farmed the region since the 1970s
helps. We hear time and again that what makes us unique is the consistent
quality we bring across a wide range of varieties, says Mike Lewellen,
director of business operations. This allows our guests to really explore
the best of Santa Barbara.
Editors Favorite
In the Lucas & Lewellen tasting room, both kids and dogs are
welcomed and the ambience is warm and friendly. They offer a
Fun List where guests can enjoy only fun wines from sparkling
wine to Ros, and decadent late harvest wines to the awardwinning Silver King Port in an edible dark chocolate shot glass.
TOCCATA
1665 Copenhagen Drive, Solvang

Grizzly Republic Wines. From our hands to your glass. We started making wine in 2004 with a couple of
barrels of Zinfandel and we now have 12 varieties and more in the barrels. We are know for our Tempranillo
and Petite Sirah. We buy the best grapes we can find and our wine is handcrafted by our wonderful winemaker, Signe Zoller. Being a small winery we need to find our niche. So other than two blends, all of our other
wines are single varietal. We also try to make wines no one else is making anymore such as our Bianchetta.
DIABLO PASO
The Rabbit Hole located at the corner of 13th and Pine ST. in the Downtown Square is the second tasting

LINCOURT VINEYARDS
Casual Graciousness of Santa Barbara County
Founded in 1996 by Proprietor Bill Foley, Lincourt Vineyards
retains the rural charm and simplicity of an earlier era. Named
Lincourt after Foleys daughters, Lindsay and Courtney, the winery
produces benchmark wines from grapes grown in two estate
vineyards located in the cool Sta. Rita Hills as well as the warmer
Santa Ynez Valley. Lincourt is one of those rare wineries capable of
producing world-class bottlings from both Bordeaux and Burgundian
varieties while incorporating sustainable methods that have elevated
the winery to the upper echelon of Santa Barbara County.

SAN ANTONIO
WINERY
Rooted in Californias Wine Tradition
22
As one of the oldest producing wineries in California, San Antonio Winery was built
upon tradition, with four generations of the Riboli family involved in the art of traditional
winemaking.
The family has been buying grapes from Paso Robles since the 1980s, but they decided
to open a tasting room in 2008, bringing their award-winning wines to the Central Coast.
In the last five years, the winery has developed their properties across Paso with three
vineyards in the El Pomar AVA and one in the Creston AVA.
These new up-and-coming areas offer unique soils and a strong cooling influence from
the Templeton Gap.
I love the whole winemaking process. Mother Nature does not make it easy, thats the
challenge but where the passion is, said Anthony Riboli. Every year is different but we
always strive to keep our wines consistent.
Opolo Vineyards
Great Times and Award Winning Wines!
If youre looking for a truly unforgettable wine tasting experience, look no further
than Opolo Vineyards. The tasting room is located on the beautiful wine country
backroad, Vineyard Drive, which provides the perfect pastoral setting. As you venture
up the scenic drive to the tasting room, plantings of Zinfandel and Merlot invite you to
pause, relax and enjoy the visit.
Launched in the late-90s by Camarillo, CA neighbors Rick Quinn and Dave
Nichols, the winery is a passion for both owners, who are involved in the winemaking.
The Opolo estate vineyards are planted to 12 different varietals on over 200 acres
located on both west and east sides of the Paso Robles wine growing appellation.
All fruit is sustainably farmed and SIP Certified. The diverse topography and
microclimates of the vineyard sites are the perfect match for the varietals grown at
Opolo, allowing for optimum fruit maturity and flavor development. In addition
to the vineyards, the property also has a 64-acre walnut orchard, which is certified
organic by the CCOF.
The Distillery
Opolo has expanded their craftsmanship to create distilled spirits on-site including a
limited release Grappa from the estate grown Muscat Blanc, a traditional Pear Brandy and
a Nocino made by infusing a neutral spirits base with Opolos estate grown walnuts.

HAMMERSKY VINEYARDS
In the heart of Paso Robles westside, HammerSky
Vineyards offers it allfrom award winning
wines to hospitality and comfort. Made from
100% estate grown fruit, this Zinfandel is a soft

of burnt caramel. The wine starts with bright
acidity and finishes smooth. There is a balance
of ripe fruit and spicy pepper. HammerSky
Zinfandels are distinct to the Linne Calodo
limestone that their vines grow in so happily.

HAMMERSKY VINEYARDS
Made from 100% estate grown fruit, this
Cabernet Sauvignon has a beautiful, rich ruby
color with a clean, crisp nose that is full of red
fruit and vanilla. The mouthfeel is rich and
full, while complex flavors of black raspberry,
cinnamon, earth and leather intermingle on
the palate. This is a true Paso Robles Cab with
recognizable HammerSky Vineyards terroir, and
the vines grow in soil that compares favorably
with that of Frances Bordeaux region.

Sinor-LaVallee
A Story of Terroir
Sinor-LaVallee, founded in 1997 by Mike Sinor and Cheri
LaVallee-Sinor, is a chapter in an adventure which began when they
met while attending Cal Poly San Luis Obispo. What started out
as college jobs at local wineries, soon became their passion as they
became more immersed in the craft of winemaking and studying
the art of Pinot Noir. This led to travels abroad, where the couple
not only married in France, but continued their appreciation of the
magnificent terroir of Burgundy and its acclaimed wines. Known
for his determination and enthusiasm, Sinor is recognized as one of
the Central Coasts most highly rated and recognized winemakers
and the recipient of the acclaimed Winemaker of the Year award
for San Luis Obispo County in 2012. Self-taught in the craft of
winemaking, Sinor is winemaker who truly believes great wines
begin in the vineyard.
Bassi Vineyard
Throughout the years Sinor-LaVallee has sourced fruit from
many acclaimed vineyards such as Talley-Rincon, Byron and
Aubaine properties. With the commencement of vintage 2013,
all of the winerys offerings are derived from the estates Bassi
Vineyard. With its close proximity of 1.2 miles from the Pacific
Ocean, the Bassi Vineyard in Avila Valley is paradisiacal. A hilltop
seascape of San Luis Bay to the west welcomes the morning
coastal fog as it casts its maritime influence, combined with
oceanic soils to tell a story of the land -- rich in history, with
viticulture influences which result in complex wines that intrigue
and delight with their layers of aromas and taste, inviting you to
discover more. Organically farmed with biodynamic inputs, the
Bassi Vineyards plantings of Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Albario,
Syrah and the iconic Pinot Noir, have limited yields lending to a
natural intensity that is a true expression of the location. Sinor
Tasting Room
The Sinor-LaVallee Tasting Room is located in picturesque
Avila Beach, a short one block from the beach. With its sunny
location and panoramic view, the tasting room is the perfect
sojourn for wine enthusiasts. An impressive selection of wines
by-the-glass or a $10 Tasting Flight of the winerys White label,
Black (Reserve) label and SLO Estate series are available, along
with a limited quantity of library selections. Wines include a
Chardonnay, Albario, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Syrah and Cuvee.
Sinor-LaVallee is located at 550 1st Street, Avila Beach. The
tasting room is open ThursdayMonday 12-6pm, with extended
hours in the summer. You may call (805) 459-9595, email: www.
sinorlavallee.com and or check them out on Facebook.

n the southern end of the Central Coast appellation, lies Santa Barbara Countys historic
wine growing region. The first vineyard production in these rolling coastal hills dates back to
1782, when Junipero Serra planted vines on Mission land. About a hundred years later, there
was 260 acres of luscious vineyards and seventeen winemakers in Santa Barbara County. Sadly,
the Prohibition Era destroyed many of these historic vineyard sites and mostly put an end to
winemaking in the regionas was the case in many of the beautiful winegrowing regions across
the state. With that being said, the spirit and passion for winemaking never left Santa Barbara
County, and this wine growing region is alive and well today. Talented winemakers are producing
outstanding and pure terroir driven wines from the five American Viticultural Areas (AVAs), planted
mostly to Burgundian, Rhne and Bordeaux grape varieties.
Although the movie Sideways is said to have put San Barbara Countys wine growing region on
the map in 2004, especially the Santa Maria Valley AVA, it is the high quality of the wine across
the county that has continued to uphold this bountiful regions reputation. Sprawling vineyards
and gently rolling hills create a picturesque scene for visitors and locals alike, who visit the many
wineries, tasting rooms and wine bars in the area. In the five AVAs, wine tasters will find a nice
range of wine styles amongst the Burgundian, Rhone and Bordeaux varietals that are produced.
In the more northern region, cool climate Burgundian varietals reign, such as Pinot Noir and
Chardonnay, due to the maritime influence. This ensures a long temperate growing season which
the Burgundian varietals crave. With ample amount of sunlight, the grapes ripen very slowly
perfect for producing terroir driven wines with pure varietal characteristics. In the southern region,
there is more of a diurnal shift with warmer nights and cooler days. This area sees less fog and has
different soil types than what is found closer to the coast. The Bordeaux and Rhine varieties flourish
in this warmer climate and the sandy soils with limestone and chalk impart a wonderfully desirable
minerality in the wines.
The wineries in Santa Barbara County boast a concentration of incredibly passionate and talented
winemakers; join them year round at their many events, celebrations and festivals, as well as in
their tasting rooms.

2 cups of flour, 1/3 cup of olive oil, cup of water and 2 teaspoons of
salt. The dough comes together quickly and is easy to handle. I shape
it into eight balls and roll it out thinly bakes quickly in a 400 oven.
Shannon also adds pepper or finely chopped rosemary to change up
the flavors. Look for the recipe on the Rancho Olivos website.
To get the health benefits of olive oil, Shannon feels you should
really seek out fresh local oil which will contain the polyphenols which
are the compounds that help arteries stay plaque free plus the flavor
is amazing!
Enjoy the complimentary tastings at the farm, which is open daily
from noon to 4:00 p.m., and from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Friday
through Sunday. Visitors can also enjoy playing with the dogs, who
always appreciate folks stopping by.

welcome, as if stepping into your best friends living room. This
isnt just a tasting room, its the familys lounge, where they
welcome you with smiles, friendship and of course, exceptional
hand crafted, boutique award winning wines.
The name itself, Toretti, is indicative of the family philosophy:
Bringing family and friends together. Toretti is a blend of the name
of ex-restauranteur turned vineyard farmer turned winemaker,
Bob Torres, and his wifes maiden name, Maretti. As the names are
blended, so are the personalities, which are reflective in the wines.
The Maretti family of Swiss/Italian descent, blended with the
Torres family of Mexican descent. The passion and spirit of these
personalities is apparent as you begin your tasting journey.

Handcrafted Delights from
Staffords Famous Chocolates
Behind the counter at Staffords Famous Chocolates, the shop
hums with the steady work of chocolate making. Youll find no
conveyor belts or massive machines churning out truffles though.
Peoplechocolatierscraft each piece one by one, hand crafting
and hand dipping with the skill of an artist. They are creating
a red wine truffle, an old fashioned pecan turtle or something
truly spectacular, like the Ooey Gooey Bar, a combination of
marshmallow, peanut butter and caramel dipped in chocolate,
topped with nuts.
Staffords flagship location resides in Porterville, and the family
owned and operated business opened its second location in 2012
