In January 2013, The Pacific Coast Wine Trail was established to promote wine tasting along Northern San Luis Obispo County coast. Many visitors stay in Cambria to enjoy the coastal climate but then drive inland 30 miles to the heat of Paso Robles to taste wine. The course of the trail gives wine aficionados the opportunity to remain on the coast and enjoy a full day of tasting from unique local wineries in our cool climate. The trail not only offers premium, award winning wines, but also the opportunity to discover boutique wineries off the beaten path and, on most occasions, the chance to learn about the wines directly from the winemaker or owner.
