About Chateau Lettau Winery
Chateau Lettau Winery combines two naming traditions: the French château (the castle or manor-house winery that declares European winemaking aspiration) with Stephen Lettau's German-heritage family surname. The combination is Franco-German: French aspiration, German family name, applied to a Paso Robles El Pomar District estate that takes both wine quality and family identity seriously.
The Austin Road estate produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Grenache, Syrah, and Zinfandel from calcareous limestone El Pomar District estate vineyards with the château-and-family-name philosophy the dual naming implies. The walk-in daily format makes the French-German-heritage château accessible to Paso Robles visitors without the appointment barriers that most self-styled château estates maintain.
The daily walk-in experience is dog-friendly, picnic-welcoming, and family-hospitable.
