Had the wonderful opportunity to visit this tasting room as part of the perks of staying at the CaliPaso Vineyard Villas. (Which is gorgeous!) The lovely Popie provided us with exemplary service for our tasting! She walked us through the different varietals and clearly knew her stuff when it comes to wine and quality of the vintages. Her humor and conversation really made the time fly by. For tastings, I loved that you get to select your choice of 5 wines from their large selection. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a big tv behind the bar area that you can request sports games on - we watched the World Cup game![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The best part of our experience was engaging with the locals. The wonderful people we met - both working here and returning customers are clearly so connected as a community and were very welcoming to us out-of-towners.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The cherry on top of our great time here! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They're also very dog friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My only issue is that the lady serving us was not attentive.

Perfectly situated in Downtown Paso Robles, this tasting room was our first wine tasting experience in the area. It's $20-30 per wine tasting depending on whether or not you go for the regular tasting or reserve and you get to pick any five wines. Unfortunately, we went back in September for our Paso Robles trip, and I did a terrible job documenting which wines we tasted, so can't speak to specifics, but knowing me I would have picked a sparkling, two whites, and two reds to balance it all out. Plenty of options to choose from! Service was excellent and the interior is well lit with photos of their actual winery on the walls. They also had live music playing on Friday evenings. If you're in Downtown Paso Robles, highly recommend stopping by Calipaso Tasting Room. We had a great time! read more

We stayed at the Villas so we headed out to the tasting room while waiting for our room. So happy we did because we got their early enough to start day drinking with no crowds. . There was plenty of room and space, indoor, outdoor and in between seating, loved the pourers taste in music and she was very friendly and accommodating. Very knowledgeable of wines and had a ton of patience for us newbies. Tasting room was clean and had some clean bathrooms. Long bar/tasting area and a nice variety of wines. Also, great places to dine all within walking distance. If you get a chance...stay at the CaliPaso Villas ...they are AMAZING read more

very first tasting in paso! our room wasn't ready to check in so we ventured into town to have a taste at Justin. They were closed!! so it got on Yelp and found this spot a block away from Justin. we were seated on a couch facing the front door ...i got to see everyone coming in. The coffee table in front of us was so super cute! I generally prefer a winery vs tasting room since that adds so much to the overall experience, but i was so happy with this location. Our host tried to give us wine knowledge....it was just ok but i really appreciated it. She was so friendly. The wine was really good! We shared one premium tasting and we bought a couple bottles to take home (2 bottle minimum to get tasting compd). Don't think i'll be back soon...only b/c there are so many other places to try...but it's not out of the question. actually...if they do tastings at their winery (not sure where this is or anything about it)...i would want to check that out for sure read more

Had a great time here. We sat on a coach at the end of their tasting room with our two dogs. They had dog beds we pulled out for them to sit on. With a TV and friendly owners the vibe is more like a welcoming hometown bar than a tasting room: and there seems to be some regulars that emphasize that. The wine is good.

After going for a stroll, we happened upon this place and were able to snag a spot outside for social distancing. Service was amazing and we were able to order pizzas from next door that they brought over for us. And they were bomb! The wine was great and I ended up taking 2 bottles of the Calipaso cab home.

Friendly staff, this review is solely about the wine which we barely found to be drinkable. We didn't finish several of the tastes. Most of the reds smelled and tasted like brandy and had a brownish tint. We opted for both levels of tasting and ended up spending $45 then left shaking our heads not understanding why it was so busy in the tasting room. We drink quite a bit of red wine and have only had one other experience when the wine was so awful. I don't like leaving bad reviews but we were completely disappointed with the wine and thought others may want to know. read more

A small bummer at the start was that we arrived before opening at 12PM and were waiting outside with several other guests. Someone unlocked the door, but no one let us know we could come in. About 4 minutes after 12, I tried the door and realized it was unlocked, though none of us had heard or seen it open. Not a huge deal, but a quick welcome would have been nice. After that, everything was fantastic. I love that Justin offers this tasting room separate from their main winery, which is several miles away. Having a location right in the downtown Paso Robles square is so convenient, especially being surrounded by shops and restaurants. I also really loved the setup with tables to sit at versus standing at a bar. They offer wine by the glass as well as different tasting flight options, and they also serve small bites. We heard there are different menus depending on the day, which is a nice touch. Our server greeted us quickly, brought water right away, and got our first tasting to us fast. She was very knowledgeable about the wines and did an excellent job explaining each one. Since we were in a bit of a hurry to catch a flight, she kindly brought all of our tastings out at once, clearly labeled, walked us through them, and let us enjoy at our own pace. We really appreciated that. Wish we had more time here. Highly recommend. Also, if you join their wine club, your tastings are complimentary, which is a great perk!

We shared the blue chess dip small plate appetizer which paired lovely with the Viognier wine we selected. By the end of the hour we spent here we purchased 7 bottles of wine and joined there wine club. The atmosphere was wonderful as was the entire staff. We are planning on making the 2 1/2 hour drive again in the near future to sample more if there wide selection of premium wines.

The woman pouring was really nice and knowledgeable. I don't know much about wine, so this is more about the experience, but my friend loves The Philanthropist so we stuck with that. Someone at the bar told us to try the 2023 Pinot and I'm so glad they did -- smooth, no weird aftertaste. I ended up buying a bottle. Fun, welcoming, dog-friendly, and small enough that you can actually chat with people. Would definitely come back.

Hands down my favorite spot in Paso…read more I was referred here by Stillson Cellars and Diablo did not disappoint. The server was super nice and gave us time to enjoy a variety of wines. The wines were all excellent. Left purchasing several bottles and glasses. This is one of those spots that are small now, but will blow up once people find out how great the wines are at such a great price.

Unlike most tasting rooms in Paso, including many of the downtown ones, they are open nice and late - 8pm most nights and 9pm on Friday and Saturday. They primarily serve reds (with a rosé available for tasting while we were in, and a white available by the bottle only) and specialize in Spanish varietals. I really liked the educational sheets they had about the Paso Robles AVA, and the map of the different districts. Wines weren't our absolute favorite, but we did end up getting a bottle of one of their garnacha's to bring home! Hope to come back and try their Albariño sometime and maybe do a glass/bottle over a tasting.

Where do I start? It was probably two years after hearing about this winery while sitting at a…read moretasting with Ray at Indigene Cellars located "in the alley" next to Jeffry's Wine County BBQ. I heard him mention this tasting room in downtown Paso to a couple sitting a few seats down, but never got there, opting for other "larger" wineries. However, since walking through the door in June 2025, I feel Bushong is one of the best Paso Robles has to offer and really like what Jason says, "We're not focused on making more and more, but making better and better." The tasting room is located half a block off the square at 12th St & Spring St. a very easy walk across Spring, if you are visiting other tasting rooms in town. Jason, the winemaker and Mike, mister "does everything else" serve up some great wines! Walking through the door it feels as if you are walking into someone's living room. The wall opposite the entrance is a wall full of vinyl (that's records, Gen Z). Willing to spin whatever you are in the mood to listen to. The wine names are all music related, as are the labels. Specializing in red blends, Jason does an excellent job getting the most out of each varietal used to create a symphony of flavor in each bottle. The tasting run $25 per person, but is waved with the purchase of two bottles. You taste your way through the lighter offerings, a white and rose before moving on to the red blends and possible the 23 year old cream sherry. So lovely! Everything he bottles has been excellent. I've been very impressed with the quality considering the size of his boutique winery, but really becoming a fan of these smaller operations because of what they produce time after time. When in Paso, make a reservation with Jason or Mike and get into Bushong. Some of the best wine I have tasted in Paso. I highly recommend it!
