Paso Robles is home to a dynamic community of winemakers, and among them, Neeta Mittal of LXV Wines —with bold, expressive wines, she expresses a visionary approach to wine pairing. Alongside her husband, Kunal, Neeta has transformed the tasting experience in Paso Robles, bringing a new layer of culture and excitement to the region’s wine scene.
A Vision Beyond the Glass
From the moment you step into the intimate, jewel-toned tasting room in downtown Paso, you realize this isn’t your average tasting. The wines are paired with globally inspired spices, an innovation that reflects Neeta’s Indian heritage and deep understanding of flavor.
Rather than simply talking about aroma and structure, LXV encourages visitors to explore how wine interacts with spices—how a dusting of fennel on cheese can elevate a Sauvignon Blanc or how earthy cumin can unlock new depths in a Syrah blend. Each pairing is carefully curated, offering guests an unforgettable sensory journey. LXV isn’t just a winery; it’s an experience, and that experience is deeply tied to Neeta’s belief in the power of Paso Robles.
A Friendship Built on Paso’s Promise
Fifteen years ago, I met Neeta Mittal on Daou Mountain, watching Daniel Daou map out his vision for Paso. We stood there, soaking in the golden-hour glow, completely unaware of just how much Paso Robles—and our own businesses—would grow in the years to come.
At the time, I was just launching Uncorked Wine Tours, excited but unsure of where this path would take me. Neeta was standing on the edge of something just as big—building what would become one of Paso’s most unique and celebrated wineries.
Over the years, I’ve watched Neeta bring something entirely new to Paso Robles wine country—an experience that isn’t just about tasting wine, but about deeply engaging with it. Her work at LXV is a testament to what makes Paso so special—it welcomes innovation, supports bold ideas, and allows creativity to thrive.
Paso rewards those who believe in it—and the crowd that flocks to LXV annually is proof that Neeta's faith has paid off.
