The wine industry in Temecula is growing quickly. Since we visited the area in February 2008, more wineries and vineyards are being added to the landscape.

The area is now home to more than 30 wineries. Whether you are looking for small boutique wineries or large estate wineries, you will discover more than one that you will enjoy. Many of these wineries are located on Rancho California Road and DePortola Road. Don’t miss the other wineries not far from these two areas. Several winery tasting rooms have opened in Old Town Temecula.

For the traveler, the Temecula area offers lodging, restaurants, winery tours, hot air ballooning and one of the largest casinos in the western United States. When planning a visit to Temecula to visit winery tasting rooms, use the Temecula Valley Winegrowers Association to help you out. Temecula Valley is in an easy to reach area. We discovered that if you are flying into the region that the Ontario, California International Airport is very easy and convenient.
