A New Chapter in Paso Robles: RIDGE Tasting Room Opens June 26^th

We are excited to announce the opening of our new tasting room in Paso Robles on Thursday, June 26th—bringing one of California’s most historic wineries to one of its most dynamic wine regions.

While the tasting room is new, RIDGE’s roots in Paso Robles run deep. We first made Zinfandel from the Dusi Ranch vineyard in 1967 and were the first winery to list “Paso Robles” as a designated region on a wine label with our 1976 release. More than 50 vintages later, we continue to craft a single-vineyard Zinfandel from Dusi Ranch that showcases the distinctive character of the region’s old vines and warm climate.

For decades, RIDGE has built its legacy by searching California for those rare and exceptional vineyards where climate, soil, and variety are ideally matched. That same philosophy led us to open a tasting room in Paso Robles—not only for the region’s world-class wines, but for the opportunity to connect more closely with longtime members and new visitors from across Central and Southern California. We’re also excited to engage with Paso’s vibrant and evolving culinary scene, which continues to attract chefs, artisans, and food lovers from around the country.

In addition to our current releases, guests to the new tasting room will enjoy a rare opportunity: tasting library vintages of our Dusi Ranch Zinfandel—wines that are 15 years or older and beautifully aged. This ongoing feature offers an experience seldom found at other tasting rooms and highlights the aging potential of RIDGE wines.

Paso Robles represents a unique and exciting opportunity to share our wines in a place that embodies the unique character and hospitality of California wine country. Our new space offers a relaxed, welcoming setting to explore the wines that define RIDGE—from historic Zinfandels and Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet to limited-production ATP releases that express the depth of our vineyard-driven approach.

The RIDGE Paso Robles tasting room will be open Thursday through Monday from 11am to 5pm (closed Tuesday & Wednesday).

Join us as we open our doors and raise a glass to the next chapter of Ridge Vineyards in Paso Robles. We look forward to welcoming you.
