Over 250 enthusiastic tasters flocked to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.windfallfarms.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Windfall Farms<\/a> in Creston to meet the winemakers and olive producers and experience the wines and hospitality of the region. Starting the evening off was a special tasting seminar led by 5 winemakers from the Back Roads area. Seminar attendees were treated to a tasting of these winemakers &#8220;favorite&#8221; wines while they spoke of their wine and passion for wine making. The evening was a huge success with proceeds benefiting the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pryaf.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paso Robles Youth Arts Foundation<\/a>.
