If it’s summer, it must be Toby time! Tobin (Toby) James, owner-winemaker of Tobin James Cellars, will be back with us to welcome summer with a great selection of his wines. Toby began his winemaking career at the Estrella River, Eberle and Peachy Canyon Wineries. At Peachy Canyon, he was given the opportunity to make his own Tobin James Cellars wines. In his first year, Toby won a coveted spot on the “Top 100” wines of the Wine Spectator. His reputation continued to grow and in 1993, Toby decided to build his own facility. The winery is located eight miles east of Paso Robles and sits among 71 acres of vineyards and oak-dotted hills. James Smith, Executive Chef, has created a menu to showcase these vintages.
