This is one of my favorite wineries because of its wine, but also because it has a 7-day per week Italian bistro. As long as you call by 5:30 or so, you can go over and pick up food to go. Of course, you can enjoy it there anytime as well! Great vibes. Only Italian varietals.

Sightseeing
There are about 50 different wineries in Temecula. Some are great, some are good, and some are worth avoiding. I've included "Rob's Insider Guide to Temecula Wineries" in the welcome books inside the house. I can email you a PDF as well.
