aha!!!

so i kinda had a feeling that we might be going to paso robles...call it a hunch. maybe that logo in hint 4 triggered a subconsious memory.....anywho, thanks to google I'm closer but not quite there.

I googled "wineries paso robles" and I found this....(unfortunately the winery name is unreadable in the photo so I'm still unsure of the exact town in paso)
