It’s Winery Wednesday!
Today’s winery is…
Daou Vineyards
There is nothing like enjoying a excellent glass of wine, except if you are enjoying that moment over looking a spectular view. That is exactly what you get at Daou Vineyards, in the exceptional wine country of Paso Robles, California.
As you drive up the two lane road to Daou mountain, you have no idea of the beauty you will be soon enjoying.
The tasting room, also known as the tasting room in the sky, in itself is stunning. The tasting bar is made of onyx and lit to perfection showing all the beauty of such a magnificent stone. Their wine is excellent, our taste buds are very happy. Handsome and I purchased a nice little collection for ourselves and have been enjoying them ever since we have arrived home.
The grounds that surround the tasting room are impressive. Everywhere you look is stunning. I think I could have sat on the rim of this fountain, stared at the breathtaking view and listened to the water all day…as long as I had a full glass of wine.
Seating is plenty outside as well as inside with a wide variety of areas to choose from. I can only image how lovely it would be on a crisp Autumn evening to sit in front of anyone of their many fire places enjoying a glass of their superb wine.
Handsome found his favorite spot as I photographed the winery.
I love the day bed and adirondack chairs under this large tree. How wonderful it would be to spend a lazy afternoon enjoying the striking view?
Not in the mood to relax? How about a friendly game of Bocce Ball?
If you are in the Paso Robles area this is a winery you don’t want to miss.

This winery is spectacular – SO different from our vineyard landscapes here in VA. What was your favorite wine at Daou Vineyards?
Its All About The Yummy
So spectacular! We ended up buying both reds and whites here. I love the Pinot Noir. Going back up soon for more!
Inga Deksne
Wow, you’ve just given me a new entry to my wish list. Visiting winery, especially if it has such a nice view is on my bucket list. Just need to find something nearby.

Incredibly beautiful pictures. Yes, that daybed looks marvelous! One would think that the vineyard is in Italy.

Another winery you have convinced me I have to go to! The images of vistas you present are gorgeous! Great job of luring us in. The bar looks interesting. What was it contructed from?
Its All About The Yummy
It was made entirely out of Onyx that was lit from underneath. It is stunning! The ladies vanity and sink in the restroom is made out of the same onyx.
Lois Alter Mark
How beautiful! The only thing that would have made it better would be if they could make wine come out of that fountain 🙂
Its All About The Yummy
Now that would be amazing, Lois!
Tammy
I have been there and can attest to the fabulous accuracy of your post. I was ALL over that day bed …. for hours. Some people have no shame. Haa!

Tammy, it was so beautiful I didn’t want to leave!

I don’t think even in the best movies you get such a chance to admire this… 🙂
