Back Roads Wineries at Woodland Hills Event

 

While the “Back Roads Wineries” are located in the picturesque rolling, oak studded hills of Paso Robles, the Back Roads wines shine anywhere, just as they did last week at the 6th Annual Fine Wine and Food Tour, put on by the Woodland Hills/Tarzana Chamber of Commerce. At the Porsche-Audi Auto Gallery where gorgeous, exotic cars glistened in the late afternoon sun, hundreds of wine enthusiasts gathered to stroll the showrooms tasting wine and nibbling on savory goodies prepared by area restaurants.
