Paso Robles Geneseo District is an American Viticultural Area (AVA) located in San Luis Obispo County, California and within the multi-county Central Coast AVA. It was established on October 8, 2014, by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), Treasury after reviewing the petitions submitted in 2007 by the Paso Robles American Viticultural Area Committee (PRAVAC) to establish 11 new viticultural areas located entirely within the existing 669,253 acres (1,046 sq mi) Paso Robles viticultural area adjacent to the northern boundary of San Luis Obispo County. The proposed viticultural areas were: Adelaida District, Creston District, El Pomar District, Paso Robles Estrella District, Paso Robles Geneseo District, Paso Robles Highlands District, Paso Robles Willow Creek District, San Juan Creek, San Miguel District, Santa Margarita Ranch, and Templeton Gap District. Paso Robles Geneseo District viticultural area is located in the central portion of the Paso Robles viticultural area, adjacent to the eastern boundary of the city of Paso Robles and extends east along SR 46 as its northern boundary to terraces along the Estrella River. The 17,300 acres (27.0 sq mi) viticultural area continues to extend on a southeastern diagonal along a portion of Huerhuero Creek bordering the El Pomar District AVA and the northern tip of the Creston District AVA. The name "Geneseo" is recognized as the name of viticultural significance, due to its extensive historical use to the rural community. Locals understand the term "Geneseo" to refer to the area of the Geneseo District.

Paso Robles Estrella District AVA
Paso Robles Estrella District AVA

Paso Robles Estrella District is an American Viticultural Area (AVA) located in San Luis Obispo County, California and within the multi-county Central Coast AVA. It was established on October 8, 2014 by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), Treasury after reviewing the petitions submitted in 2007 by the Paso Robles American Viticultural Area Committee (PRAVAC) to establish 11 new viticultural areas located entirely within the existing 669,253 acres (1,046 sq mi) Paso Robles viticultural area adjacent to the northern boundary of San Luis Obispo County. The proposed viticultural areas are: Adelaida District, Creston District, El Pomar District, Paso Robles Estrella District, Paso Robles Geneseo District, Paso Robles Highlands District, Paso Robles Willow Creek District, San Juan Creek, San Miguel District, Santa Margarita Ranch, and Templeton Gap District. The Paso Robles Estrella District viticultural area is located in the north-central portion of the Paso Robles viticultural area, northeast of the city of Paso Robles centered around the town of Estrella. Generally, the Estrella District occupies the area east of U.S. 101 and north of SR 46 bisected by the Estrella River watershed. The AVA boundary is generally shaped like a triangle, with its apex pointed at the San Luis Obispo–Monterey County line. The location of the viticultural area is in the same general region as the 1844 La Estrella Land Grant, which was made by the Mexican governor to the Salinan Indians who resided in the Mission San Miguel locale. The northern portion of the Paso Robles Estrella District viticultural area boundary follows a segment of the shared San Luis Obispo County and Monterey County boundary which is also outlines the northern portion of the Paso Robles AVA. Beyond the northern boundary are steep canyons, which contrast with the valleys and terraces of the area. The northeastern portion of the boundary extends diagonally southeast from the San Luis Obispo County line at Ranchito Canyon to Shedd Canyon on the Estrella River following straight lines between peaks in the Temblor Range that roughly separate the viticultural area from the steeper and more arid terrain to the east not included in any of the proposed viticultural areas named in the petitions. The southeastern portion of the boundary follows an intermittent stream in Shedd Canyon to a section line that is used to define part of the viticultural area’s southern boundary. The southeastern portion of the boundary of the Estrella District viticultural area is shared with the northwestern portion of the boundary of the San Juan Creek viticultural area.

Paso Robles High School

Paso Robles High School (PRHS) is the only comprehensive high school located in the city of Paso Robles, California. The school receives its students from George H. Flamson Middle School and Daniel E. Lewis Middle School, both located in Paso Robles, as well as from the Lillian Larsen School, a public K-8 school in San Miguel, California, Cappy Culver Elementary and Middle School, a public K-8 school in Lake Nacimiento, California, and Pleasant Valley Elementary School, a public K-8 school located in an outlying area of northeastern San Luis Obispo County. Additionally, the school receives students from private K-8 schools such as Trinity Lutheran School and St. Rose Catholic School, both located in Paso Robles, and some from Santa Lucia School located in Templeton, California The school boasts strong vocational, agricultural, and college preparatory programs, as well as a limited number of honors and AP courses in the fields of history/social science (honors/AP), English language/literature (honors/AP), mathematics (AP) and science (AP). Foreign languages offered include Spanish, French, and American Sign Language. The school has also maintained the largest SkillsUSA organization in California for several years, and it is an AVID National Demonstration School. The first high school in San Luis Obispo County, Paso Robles High School was built in 1892 and graduated its first senior class in 1896. Constructed with locally made bricks, the stately three-story structure was located at 17th Street and Vine Street, where the Marie Bauer Elementary sits now. A decade upon opening, the high school and upper-level auditorium would languish in the aftermath of the San Francisco Earthquake in 1906. A new location was built at 24th and Spring Street, and the faulted building was later razed in 1939. In the 1960s, the 24th Street campus was refurbished, with subsequent additions to what later became Flamson Middle School. (By 2003, the San Simeon Earthquake rendered the structures unsalvageable, and a new middle school was constructed.) By 1980, the third PRHS campus was built on Niblick Road, where it stands today. However, football games continue at War Memorial Stadium on the Flamson Middle School campus to a faithful attendance of PRHS boosters. Most other competitive sporting events are held on the PRHS campus. Although the school's athletic facilities are somewhat limited, the campus plays host to an extensive agricultural education facility. The school's mascot is the bearcat.Paso Robles High School was ranked #5 in U.S. News & World Report's "Best High Schools in the San Luis Obispo, CA Area".
