Thatcher Winery

Thacher Winery was bittersweet. My wife and I went out with our Passport to Paso Robles and was going out for a complimentary tasting and the purchase discounts. It was one of the wineries that was the most furthest out from where we were staying. We were met with our wine guide telling us that they were no longer participating in the passport deal and offers (despite it being printed) and that if we wanted to taste it would be $20 per person. So, we shared a tasting and went through their wines. They had a Viognier that was very delicious. They had a nice Syrah and a GSM (Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre) and a Zinfandel and a red blend. I liked all the wines, but was put off by the no passport deal after a long drive.  So we decided not to purchase and just payed the tasting fee. The wines where priced between $25-$40 per bottle. On a good note this winery is a member of the Rhone Rangers.
