New Winery on Vineyard……for a good Central Coast day outside!

Keith Byrd

Wine tasting is fun but I hesitate to squander our beautiful Central Coast days inside. Happy to report that my recent oh-so-pleasant Sunday happened at Brecon Estate Winery.  Our hosts Damian from Wales and Amanda from Australia make excellent wine plus they are impressively both ‘cavers’ and park rangers in their home countries.  Absolutely loved their chic indoor/outdoor tasting area! “Aussies love to drink outside” Amanda reminds, so the setting is perfect Central Coast. We will definitely go back for the wine but also the lively conversation and soothing views of our ancient oaks and vines.breconbrecon 2

Fun New Eatery and Bar in Paso

fish gaucho 1 Love having more outdoor dining choices for our great summer evenings!  Owners of Pappy McGregor’s just opened a new ‘Baja style’ Mexican food at the corner of 13th and Pine.  They are focusing on fresh fish and vegetables much like you would see in Cabo or San Diego.  That bar looks like it will be quite a lively place as well…..Tequila flights with over 85 to sample! I am going to try the ceviche but I bet my son’s is better!  http://www.fishgaucho.com/fish gaucho 2

Humble but interesting beginnings as a hot springs resort, Paso Robles is 125 years old this month!   El Paso de Roblas (quickly changed to Robles) was incorporated in March 11, 1889.  Paso’s wonderful wine country has also been known for mud baths, almonds, cattle, wheat, apples and simply a great place to call home. Visit www.paso125.com  for fun historical facts/timeline and to find out what festivities are planned.
