 San Luis Obispo & South County Wine Tasting
Go wine tasting in SLO's Edna Valley
Edna Valley is a charming coastal valley located just south of the city of San Luis Obispo and north of Arroyo Grande that boasts doz- ens of vineyards and wineries.
With its gentle sunshine, cool maritime fog and rich oceanic
and volcanic soils, the Edna Valley appellation has California’s longest growing season.
Driving the back roads of San Luis Obispo County’s picturesque Edna Valley is spectacular any time of the year with its rolling hills and vineyards, panoramic views, and historic school houses and barns.
Taste a beautiful array of wines in a historic schoolhouse
Traveling down Orcutt Road from downtown San Luis Obispo, the Baileyana Tasting Room is the first you will encounter as you enter the Edna Valley. Housed in the historic Independence Schoolhouse
built in 1909, the Tasting Room is the home of Baileyana, Tangent, True Myth and Zocker brands.
Charming both inside and
out, this Tasting Room offers wine tasting experiences designed to accommodate all visitors. With around 35 different white, red and Rosé wines to choose from, there are wines for every palette, whether the guest is a first-time wine taster
or a wine expert. For those will-
ing to adventure and discover, an amazing experience awaits! With extensive picnic grounds and views, the tasting room is family-friendly and provides a memorable and fun experience for every guest.
Our Veteran Winemaker Rob Takigawa has been with us for twenty years, and is focused on bringing elegant Chardonnays,
aromatic whites and Pinot Noir wines from the cool Edna Valley and powerful reds from the warmer Paso Robles to our visitors. These wines are rich in story, and those stories are brought to our visitor’s ears through the engaging Tasting Room team.
