Mission accomplished: The members of the Pleasant Valley Wine Trail have announced a $10,000 donation to the Friends of Mission San Miguel. The donation was made possible from proceeds of the sold-out Evening Under the Estrella Sky Winemakers’ Dinner. Owners and winemakers from member wineries paired their wines with a four-course dinner, enjoyed by more than 150 guests during an evening at Old Mission San Miguel (you can get tickets for next year’s event now at pleasantvalleywinetrail.com) … Did you know that you can stay overnight at plenty of Paso Robles wineries? Well, you can! Try a staycation at Alta Colina Trailer Pond, Cass Vineyard & Winery Geneseo Inn, Grey Wolf Cellars/ Barton Family Wines/ KroBar Distilling Farmhouse Suite, Paso Port/ Per Caso Wines/ Pendray’s Distillery The Quinta and The Studio, SummerWood Winery & Inn, Thacher Winery Homestead Hill, or Zenaida Cellars The Winemaker’s Loft and The Cellarmaster’s Studio.
