What People Say About Us
Harvest Weekend was incredible. Thank you to everyone who came out and spent time with us. Great turnout, lots of new faces, and always special to see longtime friends. We loved sharing our new vintages and welcoming new club members. Wishing everyone a warm, happy start to the holiday season! π·
Last pick of our 2025 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. Fruit from the lowest part of the vineyard and the latest harvest we’ve had in years. A cool finish to the season and a little rain slowed things down, but the long hang-time gave us beautiful balance and natural acidity.
Huge thank you to our vineyard team for the care and patience, hand-harvesting every cluster with so much respect for the fruit.
Excited for a vintage with depth, freshness, and true Paso character. This one’s going to be special.

92 from Vinous for our 21 Cabernet Reserve Darkly floral and earthy in all the best possible ways. The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve wafts up with shaving of blood orange, crushed blackberries, sage and incense. It floods the palate with silken textures and a mix of sweet and sour wild Berry fruits, all guided by fresh acidity as fine-grained tannins mount toward the close. This tapers off long, structured and staining, leaving the mouth watering for more as hints of licorice persist. Thank you Eric Guido! Taste this gem by appointment at Dunning Vineyards. Message or website.
Our 33 year old Chardonnay vines produce small clusters of balanced fruit in our willow creek district vineyard. We tread lightly on the soils with organic farming. Book a tasting with our winemaker by message or website. Personal and informative. Cheers.

Beautiful morning in the vineyard #dunningvineyards
Grenache is one of the most widely planted grapes in the world. It ripens late, so it needs hot, dry conditions such as those found in Spain, where the grape originated. Here in Paso Robles we have a slightly cooler climate. So it is usually one of the last varietals to be harvested, but it‘s certainly worth the wait!
Petite Sirah is coming along nice π€©π

In 2007 there were roughly 100 wineries in Paso Robles, currently there are over 200(To give some scale, there are about 400 wineries in Napa Valley). We’re glad to be one of the first estate wineries in the region, and we’re excited to see what the future has in store! #TBT
