The Adelaida District is one of the eleven sub-districts that make up the larger Paso Robles American Viticulture Area, and home to some of the oldest grapes in Paso Robles’ Wine Country.

Although San Luis Obispo County has a long history of grape growing (and today Paso Robles is synonymous with wine country), commercial wineries were not introduced to the area until 1964.

That year Dr. Stanley Hoffman purchased 1,200 acres in the heart of what is now the Adelaida District, and with the help of influential winemaker André Tchelistcheff, Hoffman planted the vineyards that became Hoffman Mountain Ranch Winery, the first commercial winery in all of Paso Robles’s AVA.

Today there are over 200 wineries in the larger Paso Robles AVA, and endless ways to experience the world class wines being crafted every day here on California’s Central Coast. To help you plan your next outing we’ve curated a list of all the vineyard tasting rooms in the Adelaida District where you can enjoy and explore the amazing varietals coming out of the region.


WINE TASTING IN ADELAIDA

Due to COVID-19, some wineries may not be open for tasting or have different hours than listed below. Given the rapidly changing landscape of rules and regulations, please contact wineries directly to ensure you are able to visit, and make reservations as necessary.

The Adelaida District is one of the largest districts in Paso Robles’s AVA, and home to several wineries that are open to the public for wine tasting and events.

Its location in the northwest corner of the AVA offers locals and visitors stunning views of the Santa Lucia Mountain Range, rolling hills covered in grape vines, ancient oak trees, and some of the most beautiful tasting rooms to explore and enjoy the wines crafted in the region.

Learn more about the vineyard tasting rooms open to the public below, and how you can experience a piece of Paso Robles’s Wine Country.

TERROIR PROFILE

The Adelaida District is located farthest west in Paso Robles’ wine country, and defined the Santa Lucia Mountains in the west and the Salinas River in the east.

Vineyards in this area of the Paso Robles AVA grow at the highest elevation in the entire region, with some vineyards as high as 2,108′. The soil is primarily calcareous, with high volumes of calcium carbonate due to the limestone and chalk found in the ground.

This region also experiences more coastal weather than any other district in the AVA, and the maritime fog and cool breezes allows the Adelaida District vineyards to successfully grow grapes that normally succeed in cooler temperatures (like Chardonnay and Pinot Noir) alongside the Rhone Valley reds, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Zinfandel that thrive in warmer climates (and the AVA is known for).

ABOUT THE PASO ROBLES AVA

Paso Robles’s AVA was established in 1983, and at the time encompassed approximately 614,000 acres across the cities of Paso Robles, Templeton, San Miguel Creston, Shandon, and Santa Margarita in northern SLO County.

At almost three times the size of Napa Valley’s AVA, Paso Robles remained the largest single AVA in California until 2014 when 11 sub-districts were established. Although the larger boundary did not change, these new districts provided a more nuanced understanding of the growing regions within the Paso Robles AVA, and the wines that could be successfully crafted.

Today the distinct terroir profiles (or growing conditions) of the eleven districts contribute to the production of over 40 varietals (the vast majority crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon, Roussanne, Zinfandel, Viognier, Merlot, and Syrah), and home to over 200 wineries for locals and tourists to enjoy and explore.

Learn more about the eleven districts below, and make sure to plan your next wine tasting weekend in Paso Robles’s Wine Country!
