– The Paso Robles Wine Country Virtual Auction will take place Sept. 15-20, giving participants the opportunity to bid on exclusive wine country experiences while supporting local students.
Proceeds benefit the Paso Robles Wine Country Alliance Foundation, which awarded $18,000 in scholarships this year to 12 graduating seniors from Paso Robles, Templeton, and Atascadero high schools.
Over the past four years, the foundation has awarded 55 scholarships totaling $118,000 to help local students pursue higher education and ease financial barriers for North County families.
The auction features more than 30 curated packages, including weekend getaways, wine country experiences, rare and allocation-only wines, and other items. Highlights include ziplining, wine tasting, luxury accommodations, and dinner at the MICHELIN-starred The Restaurant at Justin. Other packages include custom-designed sneakers by TikTok personality Sneaker Mechanic, a Taste of Italy experience in Paso Robles with the Dusi family including vineyard tours, dinner, and an overnight stay, allocation-only wines from Saxum, a wood-fired pizza party at the new Vina Robles tasting room, a Tablas Creek blending seminar with the winemaking team, and club memberships to three French-rooted wineries.
The auction also offers a raffle for a 2026 Paso Wine Fest VIP package that includes tickets and a hotel stay.
