Grab your pookie and pucker up! Valentine's festivities are slated for this year's very sensual V-Day week, Feb. 14 through 16 all across the county! Check out a Valentine Wine Walk in Pismo Beach (Feb. 15), Vertical Valentine's Dinner in the Wine Library at Cass Winery in Paso Robles (Feb. 16), Estate Angus Barbecue at Oso Libre Winery in Paso Robles (Feb. 16), a Valentine Dinner at Apple Farm Restaurant in SLO (Feb. 15), and a three-course dinner and wine pairing with horse-drawn carriage rides straight from the heart at Madonna Inn in SLO (Feb. 13 to 14). You might also want to stop at Laetitia Vineyard & Winery in Arroyo Grande, which offers up oh-so-romantic sparkling wine for two (see all events at slocal.com). Δ
