Practical Wanderlust Blogs The Wine Line!

Greetings Wine Linos!

Last month we had a couple of travellin’ fools “hop on” The Wine Line during their adventures around the Central Coast.  Lia & Jeremy of Practical Wanderlust, the blog they started to document their travels and offer insights into the regions they’ve visited, included The Wine Line in their posts about the Central Coast and Paso Robles specifically.

Check out the links below to their really fun and informative posts:

Happy reading and happy travels!

Until the next drop.

NEW Customer Testimonial for Paso Robles – 4/20/17

Greetings Wine Linos!

We received a really cool testimonial recently from a customer who “hopped on” in the very beginning and recently rode with us again!  Pretty awesome to hear from him after his recent experience with us again.  Read on…


Hi Jason,
We first booked with the Wine Line when you had just started the
company. During that trip you were our driver/host and we have been
singing your praises to our friends and family ever since. This was
our first trip back to Paso Robles since that trip about nine years
ago. We decided that because our first experience with the Wine Line
was so wonderful we would book again for this trip. Justin was our
driver/host and he did an outstanding job. Once again we opted to
visit the west side and Justin made some excellent suggestions (Doce
Robles and Shale Oak are now among our favorite wineries). Since there
was only one other couple booked that day and they started later than
we did we felt like we had a private tour. Once again we were very
please by our Wine Line experience. I have written a review on Trip
Advisor and it should post in a day or two.
All the best,
Ed S. and Marna M.


Until the next drop.

NEW Customer Testimonial for Paso Robles – 2/19/17

Greetings Wine Linos!

We got this little note from a very happy customer who “hopped on” last month.  Super sweet of her!


We had a great time on the Wine Line last weekend! It was so nice to not have to worry about driving and still make it to all the wineries we wanted to check out. Our driver Micah was super kind, helpful and a great tour guide – he gave us some delicious winery recommendations and kept us on track without rushing us. I really think it was the best way to do wine country.
Thank you again!

WOOOHOOOO!!!  Our little town makes it to Number Two?!?!  I know I love it, but apparently so do a lot of other folks!  Check out the link to see the top 50 and the 48 we beat out.  Some really cool little towns like Deadwood, SD, the infamous western town that provided the backdrop for the really cool HBO show, Virginia City, NV, an old Gold Rush town with the Bucket of Blood Saloon and more.

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,
