We really enjoyed the interaction with the owner.

Pelletiere Estate Vineyard is a very special place. We spent time with Janis and her passion for the wines, the process and the property was obvious and impressive. The wines are special, Janis described them as 'round, with no sharp edges'. Their approach of totally natural farming produces exceptional wines. If you get a chance, don't miss it - you will be more than impressed with their wines and the people.
Our tasting and lunch was wonderful. Good wines. Morgan was very knowledgeable and informative. We learned so much about Italian wines. We will be back definitely.
Great wines. Host was very informative and educational. Overall a great experience
What a wonderful experience! Delicious wines and wonderful educational experience with Janis. Highly recommend.
Absolute fantastic experience with amazing tasting wines that are made with the highest quality. Each one comes with a great story and satisfies your pallet.
Always great hospitality and wine.
We love visiting Janice and her beautiful vineyard. They produce some of the very best wines in Paso.
Great vibe, great owner. The wine was amazing!! We will be back.
Janice was fabulous as are the wines
Beautiful tasting room and property, great wine, great story, and outstanding service.
This is my favorite winery and wine tasting experience in Paso! The wine is unparalleled and the experience that the owner provides is exceptional. You must try Pelletiere!!
Janis could not have been more hospitable to our group. We not only came away with great wine but we also learned a lot about farming grapes, making wine and our own tastebuds.
Janis was lovely and really took her time telling us about the vineyard and each wine. We had a wonderful experience and brought wine home with us.
We loved the property, and the wines were delicious. Just beautiful!
Some of the best wine I’ve had. Janis took her time to explain about each wine. We joined the wine club!!
The setting was wonderful, and we enjoyed listening to Janis explain her estate wines and their history.
Really excellent wines, and we so much enjoyed our visit. Italian varietals, each one tastier than the next. Looking forward to enjoying our bottles at home. Grazie Mille, Pelletiere!
We had a lovely stay at the Vineyard Farmhouse. It was very comfortable. The setting was very serene and the views of the vineyard and rolling hills were amazing. Our host was easy to reach and answered any questions we had very quickly. We highly recommend doing a wine tasting at the Pelletiere tasting room which is mere steps from the farmhouse. The wines were so wonderful we bought 6 bottles!
We were with a large and Janice was provided us with a great wine tasting experience. All of her estate grown wines were delicious. Several either just bought some wines or joined their club.
We loved our one on two wine tasting experience with Janice learning about the start of Pelletiere Estates, Italian varietal grapes and naming protocols by grape varietal or region. The wine was amazing and our picnic lunch with more wine was so fun!
Had a great time at Pellitiere and totally enjoyed the wines we tasted! I am sure we stayed longer than normal but Janis put up with us and was very accomodating. Looking forward to enjoying the wines we had shipped back home!
We decided at the last minute to stop and try to get in for a tasting and we're so glad we'd been referred there! Several new varietals we hadn't tried and enjoyed support an all woman owned and run vineyard and winery. Great stop for your next wine tasting trip to Paso!
We had A wonderful experience here doing a w for my friend’s bachelorette. We were able to have a private dining area inside, and the wine was delicious.
What a beautiful winery! The wine is superb, the owners are fabulous and I learned some new things even! Such a lovely experience and by far one of the best quality lineups of wine I’ve tasted in years. Highly recommend!
Aside from the wines at Pelletiere Estates being both excellent and unusual as Italian wines grown in this region, the wine tasting experience with Janis is personal and curated. It is a warm and inviting experience! We love it!
We love these wines! Janice is such a pleasure and I love her “notes” on the wines. We always come back to Pelletiere when we are in town and look forward to our wine club shipments!
Morgan was a wonderful hostess! We enjoyed our visit and the wonderful wines. Thank you.
Amazing place! Janis is a purest when it comes to wines and her wines show it!! The property is so beautiful and the wines are even better. Highly recommend you visit when you’re in paso!
Lovely winery with delicious Italian varietals- highly recommend!
We had a great time at our Pelletiere wine tasting. They are a smaller, family-run winery, so are able to offer a more personal and intimate setting than larger operations - which we really enjoyed! I would recommend to anyone looking for nice Italian wines in a comfortable, authentic environment.
The wine and setting were great. Morgan shared the family story, which is always interesting to hear. One of the members of our party requested a taste of a wine not listed on the tasting and it was not available for us. That is the only reason why I give 4 stars. Everything else was delightful!
This is one of our top 5 wineries to visit. A visit to Paso Robles is not complete without a visit to Pelletiere! Janis and Morgan provide exceptional wines and a memorable experience!
We had a lovely visit to Pelletiere Vineyard. Janice, the owner, educated us on her wines and how she got started in the business. It was a very enjoyable and unique experience. The wines are very old world style (specifically Italian) which will go wonderfully with your next home cooked meal. If you're tired of the large, glamorous tasting rooms, visit Pelletiere for a more personal touch. You won't be disappointed.
This was our second time and the experience is always first class. They make beautiful and unique wines. It’s a great place to take your wine friends!
Janis was nothing less than amazing! It's not often the estate owner is your host! What an honor to not only meet her, but to get first hand knowledge and insight into the winemaking process. You can tell this is a person who takes an enormous amount of pride in what the estate produces. We were so impressed we happily joined the wine club!
Very nice wines and good experience.
Our group enjoyed a lovely tasting with Janis, the owner of Pelletiere Estate Vineyard and Winery. Experiencing 100% varietals was a special treat. The Lagrein, a varietal new to us, was a high point. It was an easy decision to join their wine club. We look forward to savoring our purchases and future visits. Thank you for a delightful first visit.
My friends and I had the pleasure of wine tasting at Pelletiere Winery. We loved our experience and the wine was excellent. We look forward to returning on our next trip to Paso Robles.
What a special afternoon. Pelletiere was one of 4 vineyards we selected for a wine tasting. I chose this winery with a goal to gain a deeper knowledge and appreciation of Italian fine wines. I was up front with Janis at the beginning and explained I know a bad wine, but cannot tell an exceptional from a good wine. I can honestly say her patience and willingness to genuinely share her love of winemaking has transformed me and accomplished my goal. A true artist! No need to be intimidated, I recommend a visit here, no matter where you are on your wine journey. You will not be disappointed!
We had a wonderful time with Janis and really enjoyed the wines. Not only are the wines quite good, they are varietals that hard to come by. Well worth a visit.
The wines - first class. The hospitality - amazing. The setting - romantic and relaxing. Loved this place. Janis was knowledgeable, personable, engaging, and hospitable.
We had the most delightful tasting experience with Janis at Pelletiere yesterday upon our arrival at Paso Robles. Her presentation of their unique single varietal wines were way beyond our expectations. Our faves were her Viognier and Lagrein, although every taste was a hit for us! Our first night stay was really great as well, and check in was a breeze.
We so enjoyed tasting the delicious wines and chatting with Janis! Great experience!!

Lovely winery owned and run by clever, caring women. Rich wines that tantalize your taste buds and warm your soul.
We love Pelletiere wines. We've let them sit and ripen to their wonderful potential and they just melt in your mouth! All their wines are spectacular especially their Aglianico, Nebbiolo, and unique Lagrein wines. And it's so nice to visit and spend some time with Janis and Morgan. We can't wait to get back there!
I have been a wine club member and a huge fan of Pelletiere Estate Vineyard and Winery for years, and I highly recommend making an appointment and stopping for a tasting if you are in the area. You, too, will fall in love with their Italian varietals, some you have heard of and some you may not have. The owner, Janis, and her all women crew, have created a relaxing and beautiful tasting room, as wonderful as the property and surrounding views. Their wines are spectacular and will transport you to Italy with your first sip!
What a wonderful experience our tasting was. It was relaxing and enjoyable. The winery setting is beautiful and the staff was incredible. Can’t wait to return ❤️
