Becky Zelinski wants you to get your hands dirty. If you are a wine lover who’s not content with standing by and watching things happen and want to know more intimately how wine is made, this is for you. With First Crush, she and her husband, Lowell (he gets his own post soon) they have created a unique experience for the Paso Robles visitor who wants to venture out from the tasting room. First Crush is a full on luxurious, Wine Country Safari. Becky and her team take you to the most beautiful vineyards in the area, feed you a gourmet breakfast, then let you loose to really get into Harvest.

You get to feel (and smell) what it’s like to pick the grapes, experience the crush, feel the stomp and taste some of the finest wines in the region. You not only get a pampered vacation, you get to make your own wine. During the rest of the year, they have blending seminars and tastings so you can keep tabs on the progress of the grapes you’ve picked.
