JUSTIN Vineyards & Winery - Paso Robles, California

Justin Vineyards & Winery is an incredible place. The food was fantastic! The wine was on par with the best wines you'll ever taste. We've been to Bordeaux and Napa, and Justin is special. I can't overstate how great the wines are at Justin.

We had an amazing experience at Justin - Laurie and Margarito were exceptional and we so enjoyed their attention to detail as well as Laurie’s knowledge and accesible approach to the flavor profiles of the wines and facts about the vineyard. The wines themselves are delicious and so were the brussel sprouts!

We went for a tasting in the afternoon and returned for Dinner in the evening. Food, service and wine were all spectacular. The staff made dinner a memorable event. Chef Rachel is very talented, very humble and very approachable. Worth every penny.

We went for lunch at Justin. We had called ahead of time and asked if they can take 15 of us. Once we got there we were seated at the patio and told we should sit at separate tables as they will be two servers. But we only got one server, Lorrie. She took order from only one table and assumed as we ordered family style that we are ordering for both tables. The food came after one hour. We asked for bread with olive oil to have something with our wine but it came along with the food. There was hair in one of burgers. We asked for the manager but he never came. Then when we asked why the other server didn’t come yet to take the order. Lorrie says that she did us a favor We asked how by not understanding what we ordered or not letting us sit together? Now the other table had to wait another hour for their food. There was hair in the pasta also that came to the other table. In all of this we wanted to see the manager but he never comes. We talked to him only after we paid the bill. He was no use. Nobody apologizes. This is such a bad service. For a famous winery se did not expect this type of behavior. They just didn’t seem to care. Highly disappointed. The manager Bruce is not fit to be a manager.

Overall, this was a great but extremely overpriced experience.

The ambience is great. You have a view over hills of vineyards, there’s a grassy area for kids/dogs to run around, and the building itself is beautiful.

The food was pretty good. The burger was good quality, the fries just standard. We had the focaccia too and it was a good appetizer.

I like Justin wine. It’s on the big side and definitely more of a crowd pleasing than serious wine but it’s good for what it is. As a local comparison, I’ll take Justin wine over Daou wine any day.

Service was good too, attentive even though it was packed and knowledgeable about the wines. No big complaints here.

The one part that was off putting about this place is the pricing. As an example, they are selling Justification for $117 a bottle…my local Costco has Justification for $50!!! They are charging more than double the price!!! That’s just extreme gouging of those customers that don’t know better. And everything is like that. The food, the $150/$80 tasting fees. It’s just all incredibly overpriced.

It was good for a one time visit but I don’t think I’m coming back due to the price gouging.

We spent the weekend at Justin Vineyards celebrating my husband‘s 45th birthday. From the time we arrived, we were welcomed and greeted very warmly. They were very quick to accommodate our large party. Our server, Vernon, who was the most hospitable, professional and friendly. He did an amazing job and made us enjoy our wine tasting experience. We booked the estate wine tasting and lunch on the patio, and the food was very, very delicious. They have other wine tasting packages available, I am very much looking forward to returning and booking other experiences with Justin Vineyards. Oh, and did I mention they have one of the best wines on the market.

We did the chefs menu for dinner. Quite the experience. Two versions, one is $250 a person, one is roughly $350 a person. Wine is in addition. The service was nice, the food presentation was excellent. Some of the courses were odd combinations.
I would not recommend it unless you are looking for the experience, not the meal.

We have the ability to buy Justin Isosceles at home in WI so that particular wine brought us out here to Paso for the first time. The curves & hills you need to drive out to the winery on Chimney Rock road are well worth it!
You are greeted at the door & shown to your table. Karley was our wine educator for the day. She shared with us dark, delicious reds that were all estate grown and a crisp, yet smooth Chardonnay from Monterey county. We snacked on some focaccia while enjoying the beautiful scenery & mouthwatering wines. We have a few bottles that will highlight our table back home.
