Wine Tasting

Desparada wines are guided more by spirit than style. Winemaker and owner Vailia From draws inspiration from travels and expertise from nearly three decades of experience working harvests, restaurant floors, importer relationships, and brokerages. All of her collected knowledge, bold ambitions, and divergent musings—that’s Desparada. Focused on lively Sauvignon Blanc, Bordeaux, and Italian varietal-based wines in and around several amphorae. You'll find both red and white wine on our tasting menu.

Each tasting is a 45-minute, seated, intimate experience. Flights are $30 a person and the tasting fee is waived with a two-bottle purchase per person. Active wine club members receive two complimentary tastings on every visit.

Appointments are required. We’re unable to accommodate groups that are over 15 minutes late. Cancellations require 24 hours notice.

Location: Tin City in Paso Robles is our home. You’ll find our winery in the driveway across the street from Barrel House. See our roll-up door on the right? Keep going and you’ll find our tasting room window.
