ABOUT BIANCHI WINERY AND TASTING ROOM

One of the most successful and storied wineries is the Bianchi Winery and Tasting Room.

Going back to 1974, Glenn and his father, Joseph provided capital and invested in a winery and vineyard in the Central Valley of California.

Due to his dream and ambition, Glenn decided to find a new vineyard and winery location and ended in Paso Robles which Glenn picked based on the excellent capabilities of the region for producing a high quality and variety of wines.
