Something about them being new, paperwork not being filed, etc. So definitely call before you go to see if they are doing public wine tastings to non-members because they said it might take a few weeks. But, this place does offer something that is very unique, which we loved! An olive oil tasting! They infuse certain flavors into the olive oil. My personal favorite was the white truffle and the mushroom. My friend's favorite was the garlic. The regular is good for daily use for health. I walked out of there buying four! Very cool, interesting and unique experience with the olive oil. I just wish we could've sampled the wine.

Continuing my quest to visit less-traveled wineries and discover little treasures in the Temecula…read moreValley, I stumbled upon Uys Garafiste Winery, nestled in a neighborhood in wine country. What a find! A small boutique winery focused on small batch artisanal natural wines, with no additives and minimal intervention in the vineyard and cellar. Dirk and Michelle Uys, originally from South Africa, are winemakers crafting extremely complex, refreshing wines that delight the palate. Reservations are required for tastings, and the atmosphere is perfect for experiencing their work, with quiet music playing and a gentle breeze on the back porch overlooking their property, peppered with olive trees and grape vines. For my tasting, I selected the following: Riesling 2023 (Silver Medal Winner) Primitivo 2012 (Silver Medal Winner). Merus 2021 (Silver Medal Winner) is a Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Syrah blend. Petite Syrah Reserve 2022. Bistro 2021 is a blend of Mourvèdre, Grenache, and Syrah. As I sampled each of my selections, analyzing the tasting notes, body, color, tannins, and complexity, Dirk or Michelle provided in-depth knowledge of their journey, wine making, the labor of their accomplishments, their discoveries, and in the end, I was convinced that they had actually discovered "the soul of wine". Great wines. Personal touch. Small batch. Complex flavors. Highly recommend.

We had driven up to this winery once before, but turned around because it looked like there was no…read moreone there, and it didn't appear very inviting. This time around, we were committed to giving it a try based on positive reviews. When we entered the tasting room, the small bar area was completely full with a large group. There is no where to sit, so our party of 3 stood around a small table in the back. The tasting room was rather warm, and although they do have a small section of outdoor seating, we were not able to sit outside because of the larger parties inside. There was only 1 person working, and although she was nice, we felt a bit overlooked as she focused her attention on the group around the bar. When she came over to us, we let her know we were there for a tasting, and she told us we would pay up front and she would bring us our glasses. We paid her, and she brought the wine list and poured our first tasting. I noticed the list was all red wines and asked her if they had any whites, to which she responded by saying no, they only had reds. I wished she had mentioned this before charging us. I love red wine, but on this particular occasion, a 90 degree day, I would have preferred white wine. We had already paid, so we decided to make the best of it, and tried all 5 wines. I can't lie, they were very good! We especially liked the Sangiovese, Merlot, and Syrah, but we noticed the pours weren't consistent. Some pours were smaller than others. We all agreed the server was a nice lady, and the wines were very good, but it just wasn't the most relaxing or inviting experience. If we wanted either a glass or bottle of good red wine we would consider this winery, but for variety, or a membership, we would try somewhere else.

When we arrived, Robbie & Claire started our wine tasting experience. They were all incredibly friendly and knowledgeable.
