Scene from a farmer's market in San Luis Obispo County a destination featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show.

Located halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco, home to the Hearst Castle and the only place in California where you can still drive on the beach; San Luis Obispo County is one of America’s great destinations. The area is a top wine producing region in California with about 200 wineries where you can savor the wine and breathe in the beauty of the vineyards and the oak-studded hills.

Oprah Winfrey featured San Luis Obispo on her show last week driving traffic to the RIESTER-created website. We invite you to visit the site too. It includes videos to give you the feel of the area and an itinerary builder so you can plan your trip.

Watch the segment from Oprah here.

RIESTER partners with Verdin Marketing for California’s San Luis Obispo County.

Written on March 8th, 2010 | Posted by RIESTER

San Luis Obispo County is one of California's largest wine producers.

San Luis Obispo-based Verdin Marketing and RIESTER have teamed up to promote tourism in California’s San Luis Obispo County.

Located along the Pacific Ocean in central California, San Luis Obispo County is one of California’s leading wine producing regions.

Small communities, vineyards and wineries are scattered throughout the rural countryside. Beach communities and dramatic beaches line the coast.

The county offers the best of coastal California without the crowds.

The unique topography, where mountains meet the Pacific Ocean, creates microclimates where temperatures and precipitation can vary dramatically. This has the effect of creating many unique zones offering a wide variety of experiences within a small area.

The new campaign will promote tourism in unincorporated parts of the county.

Mary Verdin, president of Verdin Marketing Ink, spoke to the San Luis Obispo Tribune this past Saturday: “Our initial talks with the (district) board have already started some great conversations for what the essence of the county is that we will be promoting.”

Verdin Marketing and RIESTER are honored to win this new business to promote such a wonderful part of the world.
