- Leilani HLomita, California25 contributionsMusic and wine in Paso RoblesVisiting the area for a month, and planning on returning to Sculpterra. Great selection of delicious wines, and the tasting fee is very reasonable. The staff members are knowledgeable and personable. Beautiful gardens and wonderful sculptures in a lovely setting. Seating in the garden is comfortable and relaxing. There is a bacci ball area, ping-pong table, and a foosball table for the kids. Also, dog-friendly! Every Sunday, Songwriters at Play is hosted from 1-4pm. We had a wonderful afternoon here, spent listening to songwriters perform their original music. There was a food truck, but, you can bring your own picnic lunch. Come and enjoy beautiful surroundings, good wine, and music!Visited January 2020Written January 12, 2020
- Lizzy6 contributionsPersonalized experienceWe made a reservation due to Covid (thankfully months in advance) and had a very personalized experience. We ended up purchasing the Port, which was AMAZING, and a bottle of the 2019 Winemaker Signature IV, which we will save for a few years to drink ($200....eek). The boys & men in our party played Bocce ball & the grounds were gorgeous. Definitely plan on returning.Visited November 2020Written November 28, 2020
- Foot_LooseAnchorage, Alaska513 contributionsGreat wine tasting experience and very interesting sculpture to ponder.This winery is located quite a ways east of Paso Robles, but is very much worth the drive out to it. The grounds are amazing with an abundance of sculpture to ponder, as well as interesting railings and gates. We brought our picnic lunch and also went for a stroll through the vineyard. Pets, kids, and outside food are allowed on the grounds outside of the winery. We reserved a tasting at this winery and thoroughly enjoyed our tasting. Our server, Donna, was very nice and was very knowledgeable about this wines that she served us, as well as the art work on the property. There is a nice selection of both whites and reds, and many of the wines are blends of some interesting grape varieties. We came away with 6 bottles to take home. We recommend the winery for a tasting in Paso Robles, although the winery is quite a ways out of town to the east.Visited April 2022Written April 28, 2022
- rsrubin11Fort Worth, Texas54 contributionsSculpterra Winery Is A Fun VisitThe winery has a unique collection of sculptures all around the entryway and the winery. That is fairly unique, only saw that once before in Napa. There was music, wine tasting of course, and a great vibe. We went just before New Year's Eve, so it was fairly crowded, but that did not detract from the visit. We would recommend it to any wine lover.Visited December 2019Written January 20, 2020
- Michael BBellflower, California25,091 contributionsGreat Winery surrounded by interesting bronze and stone statues.This is another family-run winery, the only difference from other wineries is its collection of interesting bronze and stone statues. Very friendly staff, serving an assortment of blended wines, Dog-friendly and a perfect place for a picnic under the shade of the trees. There is also a bocci ball court and stone ping pong table. The gift shop has miniatures and replicas of the giant brass & bronze sculptures found in their garden for sale. In the garden is a historic photo album wall of Paso Robles, dating back to the Spaniards. For dining, they have a food truck with a reasonable selection of dishes at a fair price.

- travelingCAgalSan Diego, California762 contributionsWonderful winery!!!!We were among a party of ten cousins having a reunion in Paso Robles & we came here for a little wine tasting. It was our favorite stop! We sampled a few wines in the tasting room which had very nice paintings and art work. The wine stewards were friendly (ours even knew sign language.)😁Each couple bought a bottle of wine and we sat on the outdoor tables on the lawn enjoying the lovely weather & wine. The proprietor made the rounds, too. Beautiful vineyards, setting, historical murals and quite a collection of sculptures throughout the property. The winery has a cute motif on their wine glasses which reads, “wine that gladdens the heart” with their signature sculpture of a cat with long whiskers. We definitely intend to come back here again!Visited November 2019Traveled as a coupleWritten January 1, 2020
- TOM TSurprise, Arizona35 contributionsGreat Wine Tasting ExperienceTrish and I have spent almost a week and a half here in the Paso area tasting wines and experiencing the fruits of the area. We almost missed Sculptua here on our last day. Part of me is glad that we did save it for last as this was the absolute best experience, hands down. The wines are exceptional, yes, but there is a lot more here. The ongoing saga of this winery is one to be learned and experienced. Of course, much depends on the host at these venues and in this case our hostess, Randi, was unbelievable!! Knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate in what she does...always so highly appreciated. We will be back!!!Visited August 2020Traveled soloWritten August 10, 2020

On a sunny day, the artwork is so enjoyable to see-it surrounds the building and is really a treat. I especially enjoyed the recently-added historical photos of the area on a huge outdoor display. The wines weren’t really my taste but I’d say you don’t want to miss a visit here.

It’s hard for me to rate this place. I liked everything, except the wine. It’s a winery so I have to base my rating on the wine right? Or maybe it’s just a nice park that happens to serve wine? In that case it’s a 4.
Overall, it’s a great place to come with your friends and family, enjoy the grounds, get some food if it’s the weekend, and drink some not so great wine.
We came early on a Friday so there weren’t many people around but they did have a Greek food truck on the premises. Normally the tastings are standing only but the waitress was nice enough to bring our tastings over to us in the sitting area outside. They probably wouldn’t be able to do that during a busier time though. Overall the service was friendly and great. As for the location, the grounds are well kept and the statues are great.
Now for the wines. They give you 8 wines for a $20 tasting, which is quite good. But most of those wines are quite bad. The style here is overripe and sweet. And I mean residual sugar sweet, not just fruit forward. These are both, and that made most of the wines rather off putting for me. The only one I found palatable was the Reserve Primitivo. I may have even taken a bottle home, but they don’t offer to waive the tasting fee for bottle purchases like pretty much every other winery does.
It is a nice place to hang out and relax. And if you’re not picky about your wine quality you might not even notice the sub-par wines.

The grounds are beautiful and interesting. Reservations and masks are required and tastings are done outdoors. We arrived early for our reservation, but had to wait until our reservation time to get in. This gave me plenty of time to tour the grounds.
Tastings were done standing up. The rating for the grounds is a 5 but wines were a 3 (in our opinion). We had to rush through our tasting because we had another reservation after this winery.

I am not much of a wine person but have always wanted to visit a winery for the beauty of them and this one looks so pretty with the sculptures and all. Is it possible to visit here without tasting too much wine? Maybe just a glass each and just touring the winery? Is there an entrance fee? We plan to go in a few weeks to see the light exhibition @Sensorio and visit the Mission and would really love to visit the winery.

Yes, it is free to walk around the grounds, including the sculptures and vineyards. My wife and I really enjoyed this aspect. The wine part of our trip was very enjoyable as well. We had an excellent host and we weren’t pressured at all to buy anything. We especially enjoyed their Viognier and did purchase 2 bottles, but again, there was no pressure to do so. I believe you can enjoy this winery on several levels.

We are absolutely kid friendly! Our owner, Dr. Frankel, always wanted to create a winery you can bring your whole family to. Most kids(and adults too) love seeing the huge sculptures of horses and cats and mermaids that surround our tasting room, but when that excitement wears off some of the activities we have to keeps kids entertained include: coloring books and crayons, table tennis, foosball, bocce ball, chess, checkers, educational videos in our barrel room, and free wi-fi.

Please, who could tell me what the shade trees are lining the entrance walkway and throughout the grounds?
Thank you, Ruth

Hi Ruth,
Your first guess was exactly right! They are Chinese elms. We also have a lot of fruitless plum trees and white oak trees, but the shade trees throughout our garden are indeed Chinese elms.
Thanks for asking!
