Mitchella Vineyard & Winery (Paso Robles)

This is a smaller winery next to Robert Hall. They do small batches of wine. We followed the signs to their tasting room, and it wasn't too hard to find.

The tasting room is very small, with no more than 5 stations inside, with some seating outside as well. The server we had was very friendly, and understood the ins and outs of the winery. It was near the end of the day, so he had enough time to give us a bit more information about the different wines and vintages.

They didn't have any white wines available, only red. He said they had sold out of the white wines at this point in the year. The red were a little pricey, with most being 25 or more, but several were worth the price. They also had some cheese samples, and chocolate samples to try with the port tastings.
The port tastings were quite interesting. They had 1 white and 3 red, and we brought one home, it was so good.
They have two dogs that hang out in the tasting room. It was a little odd, but it didn't bother us too much. But others might find it off putting. They also had an old asteroids arcade game which I was dying to try... I wish I did :)

If you are stopping at Robert Hall or Vina Robles, it's worth a stop, especially if you like ports or old asteroid arcade cabinets.
