October 26th – A San Luis Obispo County winery recently won numerous awards at the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo International Wine Competition.
The 13th annual wine competition was held on October 3-5, 2022 in San Antonio, TX and featured over 880 wines from across the United States and around the world.
“It is such an honor,” said owner Jim Saunders, “to be selected from such a talented group of wineries. And as a fifth generation Paso Roblean, it is an even greater honor to represent the region on an international platform such as this.”
Hearst Ranch Winery earned high accolades for all wines entered, including taking home best of show red wine/double gold for their 2019 Proprietor’s Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon.
The wine features “notes of blackcurrants and baking spice” with “beautiful tactile support from finely-grained tannin and resolute acidity” according to winemaker Soren Christensen.
Hearst Ranch Winery has been producing high quality wines from their estate, Saunders Vineyard, for over 15 years. They have two tasting room locations: at the vineyard in Paso Robles and seaside in San Simeon, just down the hill from Hearst Castle.
