About

Vino Vargas produces award-winning, single vineyard wines hand-crafted to achieve a balance that will delight your palate. Take in the majestic views of the Paso Robles hills and westside vineyards from the terrace while sipping a glass of your favorite wine from the list that includes sparkling, white, red, and dessert wines. As part of your tasting experience, guided by either the winemaker Pedro Vargas or sommelier Vicky Vargas, you will learn each wine’s unique name and story that will enhance your appreciation of them. The Paso Doble sparkling wines are made by hand in the winery using Methode Champenoise, in the tradition of Champagne, to be Brut dry and delicious. The collection of wines includes Zinfandel, Pinot Noir, Tempranillo, red wine blends based on Cabernet Sauvignon, Mourvedre, Syrah, and Grenache, as well as rose wines and white wines made with Chardonnay, Viognier, and Albariño. The winery is located in the hills of San Miguel, just 2 miles from Highway 101, on the westside of the Paso Robles American Viticulture Area. The winery's quiet, rustic setting among vineyards and horse pastures lends itself to helping visitors relax, take in the views, and slow down to focus on the wine and the experience of rural California. Learn more about the history of the winery, get to know Pedro and Vicky, and taste a wide selection of wines by making an appointment online or by calling.
