When you've explored all there is to do in Big Sur, head south to San Simeon and find wine tasting along the Highway 1 coast at Hearst Ranch Winery. Emerging as a top-tier wine region on the world stage, sip, swirl and savor award-winning wines beneath a warm sun, alongside ocean views.
Discover the influence of the Pacific Ocean on growing conditions, exploring coastal varietals alongside those grown in the warmer inland climates of nearby Paso Robles. Hearst Ranch Winery produces high-quality grapes from their estate Saunders Vineyard in Paso Robles, CA. Their San Simeon tasting room is truly unique. It is located off of the famed coastal Highway 1, on the edge of San Simeon Bay. From their temporary warehouse tasting room, across from the historic Sebastian’s General Store, you can watch the waves of the Pacific Ocean crash, and catch peek-a-boo views of Hearst Castle atop the hill as you enjoy their remarkable wines. Need something delicious to pair with your wine? The Truck is usually on-site serving up some of the tastiest food truck fare you'll find in SLO CAL.
