Here's a grape idea

Bar hopping is for college kids. Winery hopping is for grownups. At least it is this weekend at
the Paso Robles Wine Festival. The three-day event includes a golf tournament, winemaker dinners, wine tastings, and lots more grape
activities. The festival culminates with a
community celebration at Downtown City Park on Saturday and includes food, live bands, and barrels and barrels of vino. But remember - designate a driver.

. 22nd annual Paso Robles Wine Festival is May 14-16 at wineries throughout North County, with a festival May 15 in Downtown City Park, Paso Robles. Info: www.pasowine.com or 239-8463, Ext. 471.
