Very entertaining spot. Nice variety of wines. Friendly service and lots of information. Fun backstory on all the wines. A fun spot to go. The inside was very nice and clean. A table is available outside or inside seating is an option. read more

Came to Paso Robles for a wine tasting weekend and this place was recommended by my friend. I loved it here! The outside seating is nice and inviting, you can sit at a cozy table for 2, or a large table for a big group, or hangout on the lawn chairs (that are super comfy). The inside tasting room is nicely set up and you can see many bottles on display. The vineyard is beautiful, we were able to get a small Polaris ride tour of the property by Blake the sommelier there. He is very knowledgeable about wine also! He really explained each new tasting he was pouring us and taught me somethings about the vineyard I had never heard of. Wine is such a talent and this place explains it well! They also have a cute tint home on the property!!! Highly recommend and I'd keeping coming back! read more

My friend and I had a wonderful time sampling tasty wines and learning more about both the history and future plans of this lovely winery. Our knowledgable server, Blake, made us feel very welcome, sharing the quaint stories behind the naming of each varietal, and encouraging us to linger even after closing time. We look forward to visiting again to check out the planned renovations and new tasting room. read more

Our last stop. Best way to end the day. I'm fairly all 5 of us were at capacity by the time we made it here. I was for sure at my breaking point. We were greeted by a super cheery Channing. I think we were her last group for the day. There was an awesome set up at the table right outside. Being here felt like home. We had such an amazing time. So much so that I think everyone re-upped on their wine. One of us was definitely lit lit and ended up with a whole case. This will for sure be my first stop the next time we do another wine day. read more

Roberto is the absolute best. had amazing knowledge of all the wines and gave the best customer service. if he isn't the lead sommelier he should be. I was so impressed with his recommendations based on wines I've tried before. read more

Nice wines but I'm cutting back on my drinking so I canceled my membership in the wine club; & besides they only have red wine & I like an occasional white too. They do have an exceptional port! read more

Paul and Cherish were so amazing! Service was amazing and they were so engaging with our group.

Love it here! Such a fantastic winery tucked away in the hills of Paso Robles. The wines are perfect and the hillside views are spectacular! read more

Excellent experience, Blake is very knowledgeable and fun. We enjoyed ourselves very much and definitely visiting again.

This was our first trip after the name change & we are so glad we came. The wine was still superb & Blake gave us every reason to stay as winery members. He even stayed late to accommodate us & share all of his knowledge. MidPoint did a fantastic job of paying homage to the Rotta history. It was so fun to hear the stories behind the new wines, the graphics on the bottles, & it just made us love the winery more. We are already planning our trip back. read more

I think our favorite winery stop of the weekend. Channing was great. She was very personable and knowledgeable. She made our visit great. The wines were exceptional. The white was especially nice. And they have three Tesla chargers on site. Super nice to charge the car while we sit and sip wine in the lawn next to a beautiful oak tree. Would highly recommend the place! read more

Small quant Winery- very good tasting wine. The hospitality host waited on us for our wine tasting. He was very knowledgeable and each bottle had a story behind it, which he eloquently told us. In fact, Mid Point is located 1/2 way from L.A. to San Francisco................... We did buy a few bottles and enjoy them very much. We'll be back for sure !!! Also, loved playing Corn-Hole on their property and took a few pictures on their long wooden Swing.........Fabulous.......... read more

Had an amazing time at Mid.Point Winery. Isabelle and Blake were so accommodating and knowledgeable throughout the entire experience. Isabelle led us through our wine tasting and I loved how it felt like a story-time; this part really sets it apart from other wineries I've been too. The grounds are beautiful and the plans to expand will bring in so many people. We sat outside and enjoyed the view, the heaters, and the lawn area for our pets and children. Can't wait to come back and sip on my favorite central coast whites!! 11/10! read more

I came to midpoint for the 1st time over the weekend with my family & some friends. It was such a beautiful place, the wine was delicious & we felt like we could have spent all afternoon there. Blake helped us & was so helpful & we loved chatting with him. This will now be on my must visit list for the Paso area. read more

We had SUCH a good time here. Did a walk-in on Sunday afternoon. Easily accommodated since we sat outside. Tasting room attendants were always available and very personable and knowledgeable about the wines and area - even through there were quite a few parties spread around the place. Decent wines with an unusual options (Carbonic? that's a first!) $20 fee so we split a tasting don't forget to tip! read more

When it was Rotta, it was great. Not so much now. Look at the name , Mid Point. Sounds like a brand that is not either great nor bad, it uuuhhhm, " Mid Point". Rotta was a intriguing name. This place is blowing it. I hope Rotta cashed out and got paid well. The new wine labels are ATROCIOUS. Like a mix of cartoon comic book vs 90s music cd cover art work. Rotta had style. Mid Point, not so much. The name of the wines are tacky - like ; ' No Forwarding address" Spirit of Distraction" Glitch, etc. Trying way too hard to be clever with marketing and tacky labels and bad Winery names vs focusing on the wine. They like to overwhelm customers about the wines with stories like a children's books contain. The Black Monukka used to be in a clear bottle to let the consumer have an idea of what to expect based on the nice burnt caramel color. Not anymore. They made the bottle black, and changed the name. Here is what makes me scratch my head. Why buy a business that you though was successful and you enjoyed, then go and change it all from what made it great in the first place. I will tell you why. EGO. Its all about the romantic fantasy of owning a winery vs caring about the wine. I just bought 24 bottles in the last few months. Not impressed. Im done. I will miss you Rotta, Thanks for the memories. They were great. read more

My favorite winery of Paso Robles. I've been coming here since 2008 and the vibe has not changed. It is SO chill and Brian was the best! Brought my friends here (first time for them) for a bday celebration and they absolutely LOVED it. We walked away with 2-3 bottles each. This is a must when u come to PR. read more

Absolutely amazing small winery. This place is a hidden gem! The staff are amazing and the wine is fantastic. The interior is small but very nice and they have cute outdoor seating as well. Highly recommend. read more

Dog friendly tasting room (here is a list of other dog friendly wineries in the area http://www.travelpaso.com/content/dog-friendly-activities) & $10 for 9 wine tastings. Down the street from AronHill Vineyards (which has a restaurant in case you need something more than wine, crackers and cheese as you do a winery crawl. By the way, Rotta winery does not provide complementary crackers during the tasting but there is a menu you can order from that has different types of cheeses, meats and crackers, olives). My husband and I came by with our little dog this past Sunday evening. We arrived around 4 pm. We came in and were acknowledged by an employee behind the counter. For the wine tasting, I somewhat like the Rose wine. I liked the light and fruity flavor of this wine but I didn't like it enough to want to buy a bottle on my own (please note that I am still new to the wine world). Although I did not like the Ecliptic wine, I did think the bottle logo was pretty cool and appropriate for the name of this wine. Of the wines we tried, I truly loved the Zinfandel Port and Black Monukka. Both of these wines are dessert wines and just have a delicious sweet finish that is perfect for ending a meal. You can swirl the Zinfandel Port but not the Black Monukka because of the brandy that is in it (and would ruin the flavor). That Black Monukka had some incredible caramel notes that was truly fabulous. Although the first employee helping us with our tasting was friendly, I did get this odd vibe around her, along with the second employee who helped us later on. For the first employee (Caucasian female), she had told me that Cambria is predominately Caucasian. When I asked her if there was another ethnicity, she said there are Mexicans and that they pick the grapes (I am just tell you what was told to me, please do not assume these are my own personal views. Especially being a minority, it would just be wrong to think this way. I am not taking these words out of context). She also mentioned that they do live in Cambria but in a different part because this part of Cambria is very expensive to live in. I was taken back by what she said but didn't really say anything so that it would not be awkward. She also did mention that there really is no diversity in Cambria. Eventually this employee had to leave to handle other matters in the winery. So this other employee (also Caucasian female) took care of patrons in the tasting room. She was friendly as well but my husband just got this vibe that she had the same view as the other employee. My husband wanted to buy 1 bottle of Zinfandel Port and the Black Monukka but for some reason, this second employee never brought it out for us to buy. My husband asked her twice but she never did. My husband was very frustrated and decided to leave. He didn't understand why she either had forgotten or ignored the request (especially since we have money to buy). Which is unfortunately because I really wanted to take home a bottle. Although I can order through their website on line, I would still have to pay for additional shipping (which is kind of expensive). I truly wanted to like this winery, but based on our experience (racism, yep I went there. Don't send me hate mail because you disagree with me. This winery was not the only one that seemed prejudice during our short vacation out in this area), I cannot award this winery a higher rating above 2 stars. read more

I don't even know where to start. This is such a welcoming, warm, and cozy winery! We made a reservation on a rainy day, and when we arrived, we received the best welcoming from Channing and Brian. Channing did our tasting. They set us up outside by some cozy heat lamps, and let me tell you, wine tasting outside on a rainy day was one of the neatest experience we've ever had. The sound of the rain, the warmth of the lamps and the amazing friendly service by Channing made this such an unforgettable experience. Another beautiful detail was that they personalized our tasting menu with our name on it! NO OTHER WINERY has EVER done this! Channing was incredibly friendly, hospitable and just right out cool! Every wine we tried was also very delicious and complex....all the notes that we like in wine! We hope to be back soon to have another enjoyable experience! read more

What a fabulous place. This was our first stop and our host was very delightful. He gave us the history and took us to a nice spot on the lawn...we had bocce ball and corn hole to play.

This was the first stop on our wine tour... Looking at the place I was a little disappointed, because it definitely doesn't look like one of the castles your drive past on the 41.. Anyhoo, they had the cutest tri-pod cat to greet you before you step inside! He's a doll! This lady was crazazy!!! =) She was so incredibly knowledgeable about all the wines that they make here. But most importantly, she was not snooty like the other wine 'connoisseurs' at other wineries. Oh ya, our tasting included 12, did you hear that, 12 (twelve) tastings!! That's the largest amount I've every had in one tasting! My whole party ended up walking away with one or two bottles...we bought the red zinfandel which was so yummy! Stop by here if you can!!! read more

SUPER nice workers! this was the third time my friends and i came. since we had a big group, we called ahead so they are prepared to accomodate us. when my friend booked them, they remember him from all the other times we came. they love us! they threw in extra tastings and waived the fee..... 13 tastings for free! they even gave us a mini "tour" of their winery, explaining their process and such. good sized patio, but the tasting is done inside. they opened the gate, so we still got some of the good weather. 22 best friends + good wine + great weather = an awesome time. read more

3.5 stars. Rounded up to 4 because they waived our tasting fee if we bought a bottle of wine. ($5 for 11 tastings) The tasting area is quite small and packed. Their staff was friendly, but it was hard for her to pay attention to our group of 3 when she had another group on 10 to tend to at the same time. We passed on most of their Reds and went straight to the Whites/Dessert (about 4-5 to try). My favorite: the Muscat Canelli. It tasted exactly like the Muscat (green grape) gummy one can buy from Asian supermarkets. SO delicious...and dangerous because you can probably consume the entire bottle like juice (11.1% alcohol). A bottle is $18 and we each got one. I know everyone raves about their Black Monukka dessert wine (18% alcohol), but I thought it was a bit too caramel for me...I don't like the taste of caramel and it was very overwhelming and strong. These place isn't that great if you are a bigger white wine fan (even their staff recommended another winery to us for whites..don't remember the name though) but their Muscat...oh myyyyyyyy! Parking lot is a dirt lot out front, does not take AmEx, gorgeous scenery on the drive over. read more

Stopped here with the bf on our first Paso Robles wine tasting trip. The tasting room is small, so they accommodate larger groups in the back. The staff was very friendly and let us take our tasting onto the patio so we could eat lunch. I enjoyed the flexibility of being able to pick what wines i wanted to taste. This helped since the bf and I tend to like different wines. I thought they had a good variety of wines and ended up buying a tasty dessert wine. if you like cats, there was a friendly 3 legged cat that came and stretched out on the table we were sitting at. Heard some people comment that he lets you rub his stub. haha. read more

We went to this winery on our 2nd day in the area. We all love dessert wines and when I checked on Yelp, everyone raves about how good their dessert wine is, so off we go. Their tasting room is small. It's $10/tasting for 9 different wine tasting and free with 2 bottle of wine purchase. They also have an outside patio. They had 2 dessert wines in the tasting menu, Zinfandel Port and Black Monukka. Both of these are very sweet! I love sweet dessert wines but even for me these are extremely sweet. The group before us bought the last bottle of Black Monukka that they had, so it looks like this wine is a hit for their wineries. http://pciltraveldiary.blogspot.com/2014/09/california-central-coast.html read more

These prices don't fly. The Black Monukka port wine is really good but seriously they are charging Sonoma and Napa prices for their other wines. It's just not worth it. read more

Hands down best wine + wine tasting experience. I have wine tasted in Santa Barbara, Paso Robles & Temecula but Rotta is my new favorite spot. Friends from Paso recommended as their favorite winery in Paso. Personally, I liked the smaller winery feel, very nice sitting area outside, Sarah gave great service, and all of the wines were really good- from Sauvignon Blanca, rose, reds and desert wine, all amazing. Became a member. Highly recommend. read more

The lady pourers here were super sweet. The tasting room, though small, had a great fun atmosphere. Everyone was friendly and nice. I really liked their whites and the muscat wines here. They had a great range of wines which I liked a lot. Next time I would like to do a tour with them. It was nice outside they have some picnic tables and chairs to have lunch. The area is surrounded by wineries and vineyards sprawled around you. It's a beautiful view. In the tasting room one the back table was a DELICIOUS jam/cream cheese dip with some crackers. It's so good!! Sadly, it's an expensive jar of jam but maybe I'll come back next time to get one. read more

We were visiting various wineries on Mother's Day and decided to drop by Rotta. Was there 2 years ago and had a nice time, good service and good wines to taste. Well what a huge mistake this time. Their tasting fees are $20 to taste 5 wines and tasting fee are waived if you purchase 2 bottles of wine. The price of the tasting wasn't an issue ($20 for tasting is fairly common for the area) but as I mentioned previously to waive the tasting fee must purchase at least 2 bottles of wine. The issue is that all their wines are really expensive, ranging from $50 to $75. We all felt that the prices were way to high for what we tasted. Their wines were good but certainly not great at those prices. The other issue was the service or should I say lack of service offered by the guy behind the bar. He seemed very disinterested and bored throughout the whole wine tasting. He would pour the wine, say what it was and that was it. He never talked about the wines and just wanted to move on to the next wine. No info. about the wines, winery, history, owners, etc. NOTHING ! We have been visiting wineries in all parts of California over the past 35 years and this was the worst experience ever. When we showed up there were no other customers and no customers came in while we were there. Maybe that was a sign that we should have kept on driving and skip this winery. Definitely will be our last visit. read more

DO NOT GO HERE. After visiting over 200 tasting rooms and wineries around the world, I never believed I would ever write these words. "We walked out during the tasting". Yes, walked out rather than get ignored for more than the 15 minutes we had already spent there waiting for a tasting. It seemed that the two young lady servers were obsessed with helping 5-7 millennials in the picnic area and did not have enough skills to stop by with anything more than a tasting list while we patiently waited inside the tasting room. Our group of four mature adults each of whom have extensive personal wine libraries at their homes, watched as the two "servers" ran in and out of the building waiting hand & foot on the people their age. Maybe they were taking them 7-Up to blend with their wine, dunno. That they only waive the $10 tasting fee when there is a purchase of TWO bottles of their crappy jug wine, speaks volumes for the kind of penniless customers they attract. Discriminating on the basis of age is not smart for business. Our small group purchased over 5 cases of wine in two days and NONE OF IT WILL EVER BE FROM ROTTA. ROTTA WINE GOT THEIR REPUTATION AS A JUG WINE PROVIDER AND STILL CHASES THAT BUSINESS PLAN AND CLIENTELE TODAY - SAD FOR THE NEW INVESTORS FROM JUSTIN. read more
