Visitors Sharpen Their Palates at Exclusive Food and Wine Pairing Seminar FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 28, 2005 PASO ROBLES, CA -- Guests of The Wine Wrangler, a local wine tour company, now have the option to attend an exclusive food and wine pairing seminar as part of their wine country excursion. Wine enthusiasts can now spend a full Saturday in the wine country, and make a special stop at Summerwood Winery for a multi-course lunch by Executive Chef Charles Paladin-Wayne. Also a wine educator, Chef Charles is available to impart his food and wine pairing wisdom as visitors enjoy his artfully prepared meal. "We decided to offer packages because wine education is our focus, and we've found that people have varied wine-related interests," said Coy Barnes, who co-owns The Wine Wrangler with his wife, Sarah. "Some people are interested in the farming aspects of wine, while others want to know more about the extras that go along with wine, like food and even cigars." The food and wine pairing experience is among several packages offered exclusively by The Wine Wrangler. Others include a stop at Boyd's Cigar Lounge, or a visit to the Wine Yard at Steinbeck Vineyards, where guests can learn first-hand how viticultural practices can enhance wine quality. All tours are led by courteous escorts who "know their stuff about wine," and really know their way around the wine country. The Wine Wrangler specializes in offering high quality wine experiences with a focus on education and excellent customer service. Tours are custom tailored to fit specific guests' tastes, and groups ranging from 2-21 can be accommodated.
