SLO County News BlogGolf, Wine, Real Estate, Business & Travel NewsPaso Featured in Wine Adventure MagazineFriday, August 12, 2005 Paso Robles and some of its wineries, restaurants and inns were recently featured in the premiere issue of Wine Adventure magazine.The publication -- designed for women -- focuses on food, wine, travel and lifestyle. "It's nice to see a magazine about wine with its first issue not focusing on Napa or Sonoma, but focusing on the Central Coast," said Paso Robles Vintners and Growers Association executive director Stacie Jacob. She also said she was impressed with the idea of a publication geared toward women. "Statistics have shown that wine is being purchased most by women," she said. "Traditionally, the wine world targeted men." The article, written by the magazine's editor in chief, features some of the North County's most popular wine tasting sites, as well as some of the lesser known spots. The writer begins her wine country journey at Summerwood Winery and enjoys a stay at the Orchard Hill Farm owned by Debbie Thomsen. The article reviews several eateries, including Paris Restaurant, Bistro Laurent, McPhee's Grill and Deborah's Room at Justin Winery. It also gives descriptions of local wines from Turley Wine Cellars, Opolo Vineyards, Tablas Creek, Castoro Cellars, and Le Cuvier. The bimonthly magazine also includes book reviews, wine and music events, and features such as Tasters' Travelogue and Wine Adventure Destinations. It can be found online at www.wamagazine.com.
