Feels like fall: The start of autumn on the Central Coast means monarch butterfly season in Pismo Beach, where thousands of black-and-orange creatures take flight. Celebrate this beautiful moment in nature by opening a bottle of True Myth Chardonnay from the Edna Valley or cabernet sauvignon from Paso Robles—each bottle is adorned with the classic butterfly design and a portion of proceeds go toward protecting the insects’ habitat … Paso Harvest Wine Weekend is almost upon us, bringing live music, special dinners, and behind-the-scenes harvest fun to more than 200 Paso Robles wineries this Oct. 14 through 16 (pasowine.com).

Everything is better when it starts in the garage, right? (Think: garage rock, tech company start-ups, and, now, fine wine.) Set your calendar for the Garagiste Festival kicking off Nov. 11 through 13 and look forward to more than 60 micro-production wineries with grit and passion to spare (californiagaragistes.com) … The sun is still shining, so why not make the most of it? On Oct. 7, enjoy a sunset Wine Down event at Baileyana Winery in Edna Valley featuring the Hurricane Kitchen Food Truck and music by Paul Lewolt … Throwback Thursday, wine version: SLO locals and wine club members are invited to a library wine release hangout sesh each Thursday through Oct. 27 at Peloton Cellars in Avila Beach (you can also snag half-off wine by the glass, too). 

Hayley Thomas is in the garage if you need her. She can be reached at [email protected].
