About TOP Winery
TOP hides world-class in a Tuley Road strip: the couple-owned, two-person winery hand-produces some three thousand cases that land on lists as exalted as the French Laundry's, poured into Stolzle crystal behind a wooden gate that reviewers call part of the adventure to find.
Barrel-room tastings with hosts like Elena reveal elegant, layered reds that justify every superlative. The name is a promise kept.
TOP has become the winery every Paso insider names first: Stanley Barrios and Elena Martinez built it working double shifts between Los Angeles and Paso, and the bootstrap story now comes with serious juice - Rhone red blends that locals rank with the world’s best and a Roussanne called Poise widely cited as the finest domestic example of the grape.
