Experience an all-inclusive walking tour of Tin City, Paso Robles’ industrial area, and discover the innovative and passionate producers of high-quality wines, spirits, beer, and more.
- Giornata - Step into this boutique winery focusing on high quality handcrafted Italian varieties, and the second winery to exist in Tin City.
You’ll sip through a small selection of elegant, naturally made, old world style Italian wines and talk about their winemaking practices, including the use of amphorae, sustainable farming, the history of obscure Italian varieties in San Luis Obispo county and the building the Giornata & Etto brands in (at the time) little known Tin City.
- End of the Day Wines - After a short walk through Tin City, we’ll visit END OF THE DAY wines and learn about how winemaker Carl Bowker went from producing highly-acclaimed small production wines at Caliza Winery in the Willow Creek District of Paso Robles to also starting a boutique label in Tin City offering wines that are tasty, well-priced, approachable and that can be enjoyed daily.
- Etto Pasta Bar - Cozy up with your new friends and enjoy a family style meal that includes a sampling of Etto’s delicious pasta made in Tin City with high-quality organic ingredients, as well as a selection of gourmet sandwiches and a delicious salad, all made with local, seasonal ingredients.
There will be vegetarian & non-vegetarian options.
Still water is included, but additional beverages can be purchased during the lunch, if desired.
After lunch we’ll have the chance to pop into Etto Pastificio and check-out their Italian market where you can see their traditional Italian pasta making equipment and possibly take home some goodies to enjoy later!
- Wine Shine & Tin City Distillery - It doesn’t get any hipper than Tin City Distillery, which brings two labels under one roof in the heart of Tin City.
Wine Shine features nuanced, small-batch brandies and Tin City Distillery offers an array of traditional spirits such as vodka, gin, bourbon and rye whiskey, along with mixers, muddlers and playful canned cocktails.
Focusing on innovative flavors and high-quality ingredients, we’ll finish the day sipping through a sampling of their refreshing canned cocktails, learning about the basics of distillation and chilling with new friends.
