Wine Tasting Reviews

2 dozen reviews of family-friendly wineries

The wine countries here in San Luis Obispo County are different than Napa and Temecula wine countries. It's more laid back, family-friendly and relaxing. Each winery has a special vibe like one that's a castle, another with a fish pond where you can feed the fishes and more.
