New Glowing Testimonial From an Extremely Happy Paso Customer – 11.28.15

Greetings Wine Linos!

Wow!  What a wonderful testimonial from Mackenzie! We are so grateful to her for taking the time to write to us about her experience.  Read on:

I just wanted to send you a quick note regarding our wonderful ride on the Wine Line!
Leslie was an AMAZING host this Saturday (11/28/15)! She was early to pick us up at our hotel in Paso Robles and was so kind and friendly right from the start!
We did not have a set schedule of where we wanted to go on the West Side and she had lots of great recommendations. She was extremely helpful, knowledgable, and flexible and was able to assist us all day. Leslie really made our day very enjoyable!
We were able to go to 5 wineries and loved each and every one of them! Each one was so unique, not to mention the wine was so good! We really appreciated the relationship the Wine Line had with the wineries we visited because most of our tasting fees were 50% or waved!
Not only was Leslie an amazing driver and host but she also offered to take lots of photos for us, which we very much appreciated! We had an amazing Saturday and look forward to our next trip to Paso! (there are so many wineries left to try!)
I would 100% recommend the Wine Line to anyone traveling to Paso Robles!
All the best,
