Located at the Vino Piazzo (winery plaza) in Lockeford, five miles east of Lodi and 100 miles east of San Francisco, Pasos Vineyards is one of the rare treasured boutique wineries among the 75,000 plus acres of wine grapes and one of the 55 plus wine tasting rooms in the Lodi appellations.
Ah, my Paisano friends of Paso Robles! Let us raise a glass, tell a story and be merry! Pass me the jug and let me refill thy glass as we carouse and dance - stomp the floor and philosophize.
I try a jug of Carlo Rossi Paisano wine and end up cooking with it.
In this series of posts I explore several of the Perrin family's wines such as La Vieille Ferme, Tablas Creek, Famille Perrin (previously Perrin & Fils), Maison Nicolas Perrin and hopefully the flagship Chateau de Beaucastel.. I want to better understand the Perrin style and what I love about it.
