JUSTIN Vineyards & Winery

JUSTIN Vineyards & Winery is one of the most historically pioneering and destination-hospitality-complete wine estates in Paso Robles. Justin Baldwin — an investment banker who purchased the west-side Paso Robles Chimney Rock Road property in 1981 before the Paso Robles AVA existed and when California wine outside Napa and Sonoma received negligible critical attention — demonstrated extraordinary foresight in identifying the calcareous west-side Paso Robles limestone terrain as capable of producing Bordeaux-variety Cabernet Sauvignon and red blends of genuine luxury quality.

The Isosceles proprietary Bordeaux blend — a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant blend that JUSTIN has produced since the early 1990s as the estate's most prestige expression — became one of the most recognized proprietary Paso Robles red blends and one of the most important critical statements about what west-side limestone Paso Robles Bordeaux-variety winemaking could achieve. The geometric name declares the blend's mathematical precision conviction.

The JUST Inn bed and breakfast — accommodations within the JUSTIN estate that provide the most destination-hospitality-complete luxury wine estate overnight experience available in Paso Robles — makes JUSTIN the most comprehensively hospitality-designed and historically Paso-Robles-Bordeaux-pioneering wine estate appointment in the west-side wine corridor, with cave tours, restaurant dining, and estate overnight stays that no other Paso Robles producer replicates at the same historical founding significance.
