A town that is often overlooked for the big cities it divides, Temecula is a humble version of Napa Valley that comes without the crowds and pretense. At less than a two-hour drive from Los Angeles or San Diego, Temecula offers locals and out-of-towners the opportunity to experience wine country easily and inexpensively. Here are four wineries that shouldn’t be missed.

 

South Coast Winery Resort & Spa

As Temecula’s only resort and winery, South Coast Winery Resort & Spa has everything needed for a weekend getaway. Guests are invited to enjoy the hotel villas with vineyard views, spa treatments, dining and wine tasting. The winery has a well-rounded collection of red, white and dessert wines and often hosts great outdoor events including concerts and festivals.

Falkner Winery

This winery sits high on a hill, offering beautiful views overlooking Temecula and interesting wine blends not found anywhere else. Be sure to sample Luscious Lips, a sensuous, semi-sweet blend of red wines and Amonte, a stronger Tuscan red.

Hart Winery

When you need a break from the masses, try Hart Winery, one of Temecula’s smaller, family-owned estates specializing in full-bodied, earthy red wines including the Syrah and Zinfandel. Guests can savor their wine in a small cabin with picnic tables outside overlooking the vineyards.

Wiens Family Winery

This wine haven is best known for its Sparkling Amour De L’Orange, an orange champagne that tastes as good as it sounds. Wiens offers a substantial tasting room and a beautiful barrel room perfect for intimate dinner parties and wedding receptions. Guests are often able to drink wine straight from the barrel as part of their wine tasting experience! Be sure to sample their unique White Port, as well as their Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon.
