The Epoch Estate Domain is a leading vineyard nestled in the iconic region of Paso Robles, California. Boasting an exceptional terroir, this 207-hectare estate is renowned for the production of structured and elegant red wines. Founded in 2004 by Bill and Liz Armstrong, the Epoch Estate vineyard is on a mission to capture the essence of Paso Robles' historic vines. The property encompasses two distinct vineyards: the Paderewski vineyard and the Catapult vineyard. Each vintage is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, from vine culture to winemaking. The Paderewski vineyard is the oldest, covering an area of nearly 108 hectares. It is known for its limestone soil and its microclimate that allows for the perfect maturation of grapes. The Catapult vineyard, on the other hand, was planted in 2008. Stretching over about 82 hectares, this vineyard exhibits similar edaphic conditions, with a milder and more humid climate, ideal for growing varietals such as Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah. One unique feature of the Epoch Estate Domain is that it particularly focuses on Rhône grape varieties. Since its foundation, the estate has consistently produced high-quality wines, receiving numerous positive reviews from critics. Another memorable point is the tasting cellar, a historic building in Paso Robles, which has been restored and transformed into a modern and elegant space. Here, visitors are welcomed for intimate tastings and special events, where they can experience the diverse expressions of Paso Robles' terroir through Epoch's wines. In short, the Epoch Estate Domain is more than just a vineyard, it's a wine experience. Its commitment to excellence and passion for craftsmanship shine through in each of their bottles.
