“First let me say that Wiens has a wonderful selection of wines. There's a lot to choose from. Lately I've been very impressed with the Malbec Blanc... so creative. We enjoyed the wines but the visit was truly made remarkable by Rose. She has this charisma and energy that is just infectious. Thank you for making it a great experience. :)“
“Another amazing tasting at Akash. Robert was knowledgeable, patient, and welcoming and absolutely made our afternoon. We've been to almost every vineyard in Temecula but Akash is by far our favorite. Not only are the wines amazing, but the people are genuine and friendly and the vibe is always great.“
“Beautiful wine. Lovely atmosphere.“
“My husband and I went yesterday. The views are magical. it felt like we traveled very far to find this enchanted place. Even though it's very convenient located in Temecula wine country. it's just a wonderful escape from the noisy buisiness of life. The food is definitely upscale and every attention to detail has been considered. of course the wine speaks for itself. I highly recommend it.“
“My family and I had a fantastic time at Frangipani Winery. The friendly and kind staff made us feel right at home, and the food on the grill was amazing, especially the sausages and burgers—absolutely delicious! A perfect spot for a great day out!"“
“Friendly, welcoming atmosphere and staff - along with good of wines.“
“We recently visited Temecula and enjoyed several wineries, but we were a little disappointed with the almost universal custom of tastings taking place at the bar, where it’s typically noisy and crowded, rather than having a more personal experience with a server at a table, especially since it was such a beautiful weekend. To that end, I was looking for something more personal and intimate for our last winery stop, and that’s how I found Lumiere. We had the most wonderful experience of our Temecula trip at Lumiere. Martha was so lovely to talk to and so knowledgeable about wine and the history of wine-making in Temecula, her being the matriarch of the family business. I’m not sure why Lumiere doesn’t seem to get as much business as other nearby wineries, because the property is beautiful with stunning views of the surrounding hills and mountains, the staff is so genuinely kind, and the tastings are much more reasonably priced than almost anywhere else we visited, especially considering the quality of Lumiere’s wine compared to some of the other, more popular wineries. We left with three bottles and a wonderful memory of our conversation with Martha. If you’re looking for a quieter, more personal experience while in Temecula (and to support a small family business), take this as your sign to make Lumiere a stop on your Temecula winery tour—you absolutely will not regret it. Lumiere will be our first stop the next time we are in the area. Thank you, Martha!“
“The wine is awesome! On top of that, the family is engaged, down to earth, genuinely nice people. My wife and I will be making a trip to Cali to see this vineyard and, cant wait to make that happen! Cheers to you all and thank you again for being a part of a great night!“
“Really nice winery, great staff, they had some really good pizza there the day I went.We say outside for any 2 hours, grabbed some bottles of really nice CABs.If wineries are your thing, you will certainly enjoy Halter Ranch, I wouldn't consider myself a wine person, but I really enjoyed my time here.It's the company you go with that's important, but staff there also added to the experience“
“I came out to this gorgeous mom and pop vineyard on 8/3 with my bestie, and we did the wine tasting and it was worth every penny. Our waiter Heston was very friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us great recommendations. I ended up buying 2 bottles of wine to get shipped back to Delaware so I could have a piece of California in my kitchen. The Syrah Rock Creek is my absolute favorite new red wine. For a white their vermentino is a perfect white wine. I am not a big white wine person I loved it. Whenever I am back on the west coast I will be coming back again.“
“We love Somerset Winery! The staff is always friendly, the music/DJ is always so much fun, and the outdoor area is perfect for relaxing while enjoying a nice glass of wine. Drunk Bunnies white wine is so refreshing! Try one of their amphorae wines, they are so good!“
“Was here for the first time attending a Wedding. It’s a beautiful location and the staff was excellent!!!“
“Had a great afternoon here! Had a glass of sangria, and they have delicious looking food options. The grounds are absolutely stunning!!! Giovanni, who shuttles you down from the parking lot is a GEM! Friendly, sense of humor, and gives a little info and history about the place as you go.“
“Loved our stop at Bella Vista! We came here with Straight off the Vine winery tour and had a great time. The tasting room is huge- we were immediately given tasting tokens by Dylan who was so nice. Matt was there to pour our wine and give us recommendations- he was so knowledgeable! I told him that I usually love Cabernet so he chose our wines based off of that. We loved the Peacock dry bubbly to start, and then really liked the white Fermentino. Matt encouraged us to walk up the stairs outside and to enjoy our wine overlooking the beautiful view! It was so peaceful and beautiful up there! I’m so excited for Bella Vista to get their permitting and be able to pour up there :) Really nice spot!“
“Simply amazing. A must try for sure.“
“Lovely winery tasting room we discovered — just off the main road. Great ambience, super friendly and helpful team. The live music was fun, not too loud. Went there with friends who were also impressed. They signed up for the wine club on the spot because the white wines were so good. Will definitely add Julie’s Dream to our regular route when we are in Temecula!“

“My spouse and I have been visiting Bailey's for over six years, and it remains a favorite spot when we're in Temecula. The wines are a mostly positive experience. Most are exceptional, like the Cab Franc, while others, like the Grand Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon , fall short.
What keeps us coming back are Karen and Chuey, who make every visit memorable. We also enjoy Carols, even though its hours are limited.The shrimp scampi is outstanding, and Claudia, our usual server, consistently delivers excellent service.
Bailey's will always be a must-stop for us!“
“A visit to Europa Village is a little journey one can take, without spending expensive airfare and taking time off for a European vacation! The beautiful architecture and ambiance of the winery has been created with such attention to detail, truly unique to Wine Country. The wine and culinary offerings are diverse and so delicious! For our equestrian group, the outstanding customer service was beyond compare. Owner Dan set us up with Brian in Operations, who worked closely with our event coordinator to deliver a perfect experience! Our lunch was delicious, Max the Mercato Mgr ensured our large pre-order was ready on time. John, Winery Mgr, ensured we were perfectly situated the day of our event. Matt, Wine Club mgr, gave an excellent impromptu presentation to our group explaining the vision, mission and future of the estate with an insiders perspective. Many of us joined the Wine Club! The entire day could not have been better! Thank you Europa for allowing a special equestrian event such as ours to take place. We look forward to our next visit!

“Beautiful scenery nice atmosphere“
“Was sorting through my wine and discovered several bottles 15 or more years old that we hadn't deliberately kept. One was a 2005 Lorimar Medley Meritage. We opened this one tonight. Decanted it several hours before we tried it. It was delicious! Very jammy, with a deep garnet color. Extremely smooth, excellent finish. Wish we had a few more bottles 😍“
“I LOVE-LOVE BEL VINO WINERY. WHEN YOU ARRIVE COUNT ON RELAXING AND STAY!
Listen visitors and any guest if you are headed to the wine country of Temecula keep driving until you get to the sign (on the right) that reads BEL VINO. Up on that hill you will have the day and FUN that you are looking for. They have an outdoor stage and dance floor for you to just dance yourself away every Sat and Sun. There is entertainment events on Fridays as well check the website.
Bel Vino Winery is elevated so that you can look out over the wine country. If it’s a hot day you mostly have a breeze up there. They make sure they have good bands that play a variety of music and it’s a place that you simply enjoy. The wine is good, the staff makes you feel so very welcomed, they have a vendor who cooks great BBQ (get ready for some good BBQ) and REALLY you will want to just kickback and spend your day there! I was just there with 137 guest who I invited for a day in the wine country at Bel Vino. THE WINERY OF CHOICE and let me tell you that’s where we all stayed no question and had a ball. Isn’t it something when all your guest love a particularly winery so much they all said, “we are staying right here”.
I know you have choices but if you are reading this it’s a MUST to stop there. You will see why when you arrive!
ENJOY!“
“We had the most incredible wedding at Ponte Winery in early October 2024, and we honestly can’t recommend it enough! The Spanish-style architecture was absolutely stunning, with its warm, rustic charm perfectly complementing the breathtaking views of the vineyard. The grapevines were just starting to turn, adding a beautiful touch of fall color that made the whole place feel like a dream. From the gorgeous outdoor ceremony spot to the lovely reception area, every corner of the venue felt like it was straight out of a fairytale.
A huge thank you to Carly, the wedding coordinator, who made everything so effortless for us. From our first meeting, she was organized, reassuring, and just really on top of everything — we felt totally supported throughout the entire process. On the big day, Carly made sure everything ran smoothly, so we could just enjoy ourselves without a worry in the world. The food and wine were amazing, the staff was so friendly and attentive, and we had so many guests tell us how great everything was. Thanks to Ponte Winery and Carly, our wedding day was everything we had dreamed of and more.“
“My first time here for an event and everything was simply beautiful! Will definitely come back!!“
“We enjoyed a delicious bottle of Tango and a loaf of fresh baked Brie Bread for lunch today at your beautiful winery. Thank you for the hospitality and horsepitality! Our server kindly brought up a tub of water for the horses because it was hot today.“
“Outstanding ambience, great selection of wine and food!“
“Fun, beautiful scenery, great wine, awesome staff. Totally recommend!“
“Friendly and down to earth.“
“Great quality wines. Lovely people.“
“great bunch of wineries in this trail. it was a blast hitting some new ones“
“We love bringing our girl Mia to Cougar! As locals, having a winery that is friendly to dogs is a big draw for us. Of course there are lots of wineries in the area, but few are open to dogs, and Cougar is not just open to dogs, they welcome them!Another priority for us is a winery that doesn't feel overly commercial and offers casual indoor and outdoor seating options with a view of the vineyards. Cougar offers all this and more, with an Italian deli, great seating options, weekday specials, and great wine varietals. Their tasting card offers the chance to sample six of their wines at a competitive price.I've been to many of the wineries in the Temecula Valley and Cougar is one of my absolute favorites, and our go-to if we want to bring our pup along.“
“It's a nice winery in Temecula. The atmosphere is nice. It's also great for a wedding. The weather was nice and cool, and the sky with gradations as the sun set was so beautiful. The food wasn't bad, but it took a long time because there weren't enough servers. But everyone was smiling and friendly, so the atmosphere was good. I'd recommend it if someone wants to have a wedding here. The only downside is that the parking lot is sandy.“
“Words cannot describe how happy I am that chose this venue for my big special wedding day!!! My coordinator/manager of this venue, Cecily, and her team went over and beyond for our wedding and nothing could have been more perfect. Everything ran exactly as planned and from the amazing exquisite decor, the unbelievably put together fabulous charcuterie board for cocktail hour, and to all time and effort her and her team put into organizing this wedding was incredible!! I used her references for photography and catering and they both delivered perfectly!! People were so happy and had a GREAT time! They were amazed by the beauty of how well everything was decorated to how beautiful the venue was itself, loved every bite of all the food we had at this wedding, and it was just the perfect day. I honestly could not have had a better wedding and it’s all thanks to this amazing venue, the owner, Cecily, her team, and all the vendors who went beyond 5 stars to make our dream come true!! Also would like to note how Cecily was there for me every step of the way in planning this wedding, and she was even understanding and patient with me with some payments that were due bc some of the family issues during our journey leading up to our big day. At the end of it all, everything that happened ended up bringing all family and friends closer and I owe Cecily a huge thanks for always being there for me whenever I needed her. We love them all so much for what they’ve done for us and cannot thank them enough. I highly recommend this venue for weddings especially if you work with Cecily and her team! Also, the winery itself is a gorgeous setting with a great variety of delicious high quality wines. Amazing, amazing…AMAZING! I wish I could give them more stars if I could!! Thank you sooo much!!!“
“12/8/2024
This place is beautiful and I enjoyed my wine tasting. They had live music and a great vibe. I was very relaxed. The tasting was double the cost of other places we went but the pours were better and the wine was best of the day. I can't believe I didn't take any pictures of the venue, sorry.“
“This is one of the coolest hotels I’ve ever stayed at! Stayed for one weekend with my girlfriend and it was a very relaxing experience, the room is very nice and the bathroom is awesome! The bed isn’t the best though, it’s a fold down bed. It was nice to see the vineyard right out your window with your own patio too!! They also have a bus to take you to some wineries!“
“My first visit to this winery a few years ago wasn't great. To be fair, it was a crowded weekend outdoor event on a miserably hot day. I had been totally underwhelmed by warm white wine in a plastic cup and didn't visit again until recently...but am glad I gave it another shot!
This recent visit was with a women's wine group on a Friday as soon as they opened. I had never been inside the tasting room which is beautiful with a warm wood decor and western ambiance. Our servers were friendly and my Cab Franc was good. We all tried their famous Ponderosa Port shots in chocolate cowboy boots which was such a fun and yummy combo!
Breezy pleasant temps after a heat wave meant we were able to sit outside. Although not pet-friendly, it is a kid-friendly winery, with a playground area and some farm animals. They have Saturday night bonfires, music and food trucks. There was a taco truck the day we were there and those who ordered said it was great.
While I probably wouldn't visit on a regular basis, this was a unique winery that I'd especially recommend to anyone with kids.“

“Spent the day wine tasting and made reservations for lunch. Food was super yummy. Wines were decent. The grounds and landscaping is gorgeous.
Started with the hummus. It’s really thick and a bit dry. Needed to ask for more pita because it’s a big plate. The asparagus and prosciutto was good.
The mushroom risotto was super delicious and creamy. Very rich and filling. Caesar salad had a good flavor. The pesto chicken added a great punch to it. It’s huge! The superfood salad was one of my favorites. We added shrimp for an extra fee. They added 3 shrimp. Needed more! The corn chowder was yummy but needed to be hot. It was just lukewarm.
Nice location, great ambiance. Nice and quiet“
