Domaine Degher Winery, San Miguel, CA, March 28, 2024 Domaine Degher is a beautiful little tasting room at the top of a hill looking out onto the Salinas River and surrounding valley below. It is owned and operated by Mr. Dennis Degher, a kind experienced gentleman who knows how to show his guests a nice time. Wine tasting is $30 per person, waived with the purchase of wine. Wine tasting is by appointment only. We made an 11 am appointment for a Thursday morning. There is an automatic gate at the bottom of the hill and you call to have it opened when you arrive. Mr. Degher greeted us when we arrived at the top of the hill. He has an indoor and outdoor tasting area. It was such a beautiful morning, we did our tasting on the patio outdoors. We tried several wines, including a Viognier, Chardonnay, a couple grenaches, a few cab blends, and a beautiful unfiltered port. All the wines we tried were very good. After tasting wine, Mr. Degher took us for stroll around his property. He gave us cuttings of rosemary, lavender, oregano, and bay leaf. We bought 4 bottles of wine, which waived our tasting fee. Mr. Degher is also an accomplished musician who has composed and performed many songs, which he has recorded and can be purchased on CD. Don't miss an opportunity to visit this beautiful little gem at the top of the hill!

Unfortunately, we had to do our tasting indoors because it was raining, but Denis made sure our group of 11 had a great time. We were there during the time he had a herd of sheep on his estate eating the weeds and fertilizing, which was a lot of fun to see. Denis is not only an amazing winemaker but also had an incredible career in the music industry. I don’t know a lot about wines, but I gifted a bottle of his grenache to one of my wine-loving friends, and they gave a stellar review. We’ll be sure to visit again when we’re in the area. Thank you Denis for a lovely time!

We had a wonderful time tasting wine here for my friend’s birthday. Dennis was an amazing host and all of the wines we sampled were delicious. The grounds were beautiful. It’s a great place to spend an afternoon in Paso.Bonus - it’s dog friendly!

Dennis was very friendly and let us try a wide variety of wines -- my favorite was the dessert wine. The property was very pretty, and we had a great time playing bocce afterwards.

Dennis is personable and his wines are top notch. So much flavor and interest there. Wish we had gotten more than 4 bottles of his 2017-2019 Grenache!

Love these wines! It's so nice the hear the love that went into each of Denis's delightful full bodied selections. The charm of the tasting room is great. Looking forward to seeing some live music there!

Delightful evening at Dennis Degher's outdoor tasting at the vineyard. We played Dennis's music in the background (our request, after we got a taste of his melodic jazz), and toured his vineyard gardens (highlights were 4 lavenders, bay leaves, butterfly bushes, Mexican evening primrose, 2 beautiful mimosas in full bloom). The wines were amazing, and varied. We took home Dennis' estate red 2018 Mojo, an exceptionally refreshing voignier with grapes sourced from Santa Barbara (we're not white wine drinkers at all...until today), and his award winning reserve Cab-Sauv-50% estate, 50% sourced from 4 Lanterns. Superb! Dennis was a pleasure to converse with. So glad we got to share a casual, beautiful outdoor evening together (including his dog Coltrane).

Dennis is truly an artist... This is wine done right! Every bottle is unique, yet complex and satisfying. Enjoy the afternoon at local vineyards in Paso, but don’t forget to stop into Deghers’ tasting room for a pre/post dinner treat. You won’t regret it!

This place is always amazing. Denis is always friendly and an amazing host. We always stop by here whenever we are in Paso Robles to stock up on wine. Try the Mojo wine you won't regret it.
