 The
Region
Paso Robles is located approximately halfway
between Los Angeles and San Francisco in the northern
part of San Luis Obispo County. Thirty miles inland,
its warm climate is due to the Santa Lucia Mountains
that block out most of the cooling Pacific Ocean influence
during the day. The Templeton Gap is a saddle in the
range that channels the moderating late afternoon breezes
and cool night air across the region.
The
appellation of Paso Robles is geographically diverse.
Numerous soil types and elevation changes, together with
diverse valleys and canyons, account for varied climates
and sites that yield high quality production of a diversity
of varietals, notably reds. |
