Paso Robles, CA  – Paso Robles Wine Country, one of the nation’s premier wine regions, announced today its plans to visit Florida with its Paso Wine in the Sunshine State program. More than 20 wineries from California’s third largest wine producing region will pour a sampling of their award-winning wines in Orlando on October 3 and Tampa on October 4.

These back to back events feature Paso’s best wineries pouring 100 wines for the wine trade, media, and the public. The wine trade and media experience begins with a seated master-class highlighting a selection of wines indicative of the Paso Robles American Viticultural Area. This limited seating event is followed by a luncheon for the trade and media where 20 wineries will share their wines across the tables in a casual, fun setting.

Members of the wine buying trade and media are encouraged to visit www.pasowine.com/events/sunshine-state/ to register to attend.

Beginning at 6 p.m., wine lovers of both Orlando and Tampa can taste wines into the evening with advance ticket purchase. This walk-around tasting event features the personality of Paso Robles Wine Country as much as the wine with winery representatives from Paso Robles pouring. Attendees are sure to discover new wines and taste those they know and love. Admission is $40 per person, which includes unlimited tastings, cheese, and a commemorative wine glass. Tickets are limited to 200 people at each event and can be purchased on www.pasowine.com/events/sunshine-state/.
