Extraordinary Experience! - Paul Anthony picked us up right on time. He was engaging and educated us on the trip to Bernardo winery, which is the oldest winery in Southern California. He gave us a tour of the grounds with the full history. He taught us all the “s’s” of a proper wine tasting. He gave us time to do some shopping at the lovely shops. We met the lovely Gelato shop owner, who paired our wine with just the right chocolate. Then, we headed to Cordiano winery, for a fantastic margarita pizza paired with lovely wines and a fantastic view of the valley right before and at sunset. Also, on the patio, we were swooned with a wonderful and talented “Barry White” type crooner, Jay, who also played amazing saxophone.
Paul took amazing pictures of us for our social media.
It was a magical and unforgettable day.

A Beautiful and Delightful Day with Paul Anthony - What an incredible experience! My friend Amy and I joined a vineyard tour with Paul Anthony, and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. We visited two beautiful vineyards surrounded by stunning scenery and enjoyed delicious wine and food pairings at each stop.
Anthony was an outstanding guide — knowledgeable, personable, and full of great stories that made the day both relaxing and enriching. He clearly loves what he does, and it shows in every detail of the experience.
We also met some wonderful fellow travelers, Tim and Joanne, whose company made the day even more fun and memorable. It truly felt like spending the day with friends, enjoying great wine, food, and conversation.
A truly beautiful and delightful day — highly recommend!

Relaxed and Scenic: A Tour Worth the Time - This three-winery tour was a great way to spend the day — casual, scenic, and full of easygoing charm. Each stop had its own personality, and the mix of wine, food, and views made for a well-rounded experience.
The first winery had an outdoor patio that we thoroughly enjoyed. The wines were approachable and enjoyable, and the charcuterie was tasty and the perfect pairing. The staff were friendly and happy to educate on the wine flight we sampled.
Subsequent stops offered equally pleasant vibes and experiences with a great three-course meal on the last stop.
What really tied the whole experience together was our guide, Paul Anthony. He was engaging, entertaining, and genuinely fun to be around — the kind of person who makes everyone feel welcome. His stories, humor, and easygoing style added a personal touch that elevated the tour beyond just wine tasting.
If you’re looking for a relaxed outing with good wine, scenic stops, and a guide who knows how to keep things light and enjoyable, this tour is a solid choice.

Really such a great day! Definitely Recommend! - Didn't know what to expect as this was both my husband and my first wine tasting, let alone tour of multiple wineries. This tour is definitely suited for both casual wine enthusiasts (like my husband and I) and true wine connoisseurs. It turned out to be such a fun day! Our guide/driver was Paul Anthony and he was great. Very knowable about not only the vineyards and wines, but also San Diego. The entire car ride was a tour. He pointed out historical sites and great spots to go dine at later. The wine was great! The company was amazing! The views breathtaking! Really can't say anything bad about our day and recommend it to everyone.
