Red Soles Winery

Specialties

Red Soles Winery is a small, family-​owned and operated winery on California’s beautiful, Central Coast. The founding owners, Randy and Cheryl Phillips, celebrated the Winery’s grand opening in March of 2007. Red Soles Winery has proven a natural extension of the farming company that the two have owned since 1991 when they first began growing wine grapes.

After years of wanting to experiment with their own fruit, Cheryl eventually convinced Randy to make some wine. Not having any equipment, the pair crushed that historic first barrel with their own feet. Following a fruitful romp in that first bin of grapes, Randy and Cheryl stumbled upon the name Red Soles while admiring each other’s red, grape-​stained feet. That first crush of Petite Sirah and Zinfandel grapes later became the founding partner’s premier vintage, their 2004 Kick-​Off.

At Red Soles Winery our wines are grown not made. Come to our winery and taste the difference. CHEERS ! Randy and Cheryl the Soles

History

Established in 2004.

Since the winery’s founding in 2004 our line up of wines has grown to over 14 offerings, covering an impressive range of whites, reds, roses’, and dessert wines. Each wine in their line-​up is Estate grown with sustainable farming practices, hand picked at their optimum flavor and made with minimal intervention.

Although the winery is definitely a full-​time business, the main focus of Randy and Cheryl’s company will always be farming. There is something extremely satisfying about being able to be part of a wine grape’s journey from dust to vine and vine to barrel. Currently, the pair owns two hundred acres of wine grapes; half are on the east side of Paso Robles and the other half are at the winery site in the Templeton Gap. Only a small percentage of what is grown gets turned into Red Soles wine; the rest of the grapes are sold to large wineries, most of whom they have been doing business with for years.
