tasting in Paso Robles Wine Country
with The Wine Wrangler is always
a popular event, but with the recent statement by Food and Wine Magazine
that “The Central Coast is California’s next great wine destination,” you can
bet that our local tasting rooms will become busier. When we’re on the road
taking our guests all over Paso Robles
Wine Country, one of our more popular destinations is Halter Ranch.
Located on the Westside in the Adelaida District, Halter Ranch has a long and storied
history that dates back to the 1800s when San Franciscan businessman Edwin
Smith purchased the property as a farm. While the much loved Victorian farmhouse
dates back to 1885, it wasn’t the first house that was built on the property.
The vineyard was first planted in 1996 and now covers 280
acres. The soil composition is comprised of limestone soil and is the perfect
mix for producing the Bordeaux and Rhone style wines that Halter Ranch is known for in the area. Halter Ranch produces 100% estate grown wines and they’re committed
to sustainable to growing practices—they’re even S.I.P. certified (sustainability
in practice).
Here are 3 of our favorite
wines to taste when we visit Halter
Ranch:
Halter Ranch
Ancestor: This flagship wine is a Bordeaux-style wine that brings
together a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Petit Verdot with nuances
of olallieberries, currants, and cloves.
Halter Ranch Syrah:
The second largest planting, this wine tantalizes the palate with hints of
baking spices and pie crust, violets and plum.
Halter Ranch Rosé:
A favorite summertime sipper, this wine will transport your palate to the South
of France with notes of watermelon, wild strawberry, and guava.
