GROVER BEACH, Calif. (AP) — Grover Beach police are searching for a man accused of robbing the Monarch Grover Winery tasting room while wearing a mask and an Elvis wig.
The Tribune in San Luis Obispo reports that the man took about $400 in cash Sunday. They say he showed a black semi-automatic pistol to a tasting room employee before binding the employee’s wrists with duct tape and confining the victim to the restroom.
Police say the robber wore an old man mask and a wig. He was last seen walking south on Highway 1.

I’m surprised he got 400 out that joint. They make low end stuff that goes for about 16 bucks a bottle retail. How much would you pay to taste there?
Robbed a tasting room. Well, that’s one I’ve not heard of before.
Careful, your liberal elitism is showing.
He could have at least gone up to Sonoma or Napa and made some real bucks. I think I paid about 50 or so each at Peju, Krug and Mondavi. They must have 1000’s in those tasting rooms.
Nah. I only let that out of the box when I’m in the South of France.
