    Altísima winery is a great spot to catch up with friends! My friends and I have wine club membership and is totally worth it! They always have fresh food and the best wine! Their service is prompt and they have an organized system for when it does get busy. Will keep coming back here when we visit our friend in Temecula!

    A time was had. This was my first ever winery experience and it was to celebrate my friends Isabel Irma's birthday. She had made the reservation for us, she's a Temecula girly so we drove up from San Diego and again, a time was had. There is ample parking so don't be worried if you come and the scene here is just stunning. We were a little early waiting for the birthday girl so we checked in and roamed around the restaurant, it's is just so beautiful. Once we all arrived we were sat outside which I was a little nervous for, considering the temperature, but they started misting and everything cooled down. For drinks, I ordered the pina colada while my friends ordered the mango froze, guava froze and sangria. We opted for appetizers instead of meals since we were going to be having a big meal later that day. Our drinks were strong, since I was driving I opted to drink half of my cocktail and give the rest to the birthday girl. Out of the drinks I would definitely say the guava was my favorite, it was perfectly sweet and if I wasn't driving I would have drank my first and ordered the other. We ordered the potatoes bravas, calamari and empenadas, the food came out so quickly and between the four of us we devoured it. The calamari were my favorites and especially loved the fried peppers! Would definitely recommend this place, the food was delicious, drinks were perfect and refreshing, views are stunning and service was fast and attentive!

    Altisima Winery is such a beautiful place! The views are absolutely stunning and create the perfect atmosphere to relax and unwind. The wine was excellent, and the live music added a mellow, enjoyable vibe that made the experience even better. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, going on a date, or simply spending time with friends, this is a wonderful spot to visit. I'll definitely be back! I gave it 4 out of 5 stars only because I think the patio could use more umbrellas. During the summer in Temecula, the California sun can be intense, and there are only a few shaded tables in what is otherwise a fantastic outdoor seating area. Adding more shade would make the experience even better.

    It was a busy Saturday as the weather was gorgeous. It was tough to get pours and i thought the wine was ok. Ambiance was nice at the tasting bar. However service could improve as felt I had to flag someone to get the next pour even when the crowd dissipated

    Checked this place out last spring with 3 friends for wine tasting experience. We got sitted right away in the patio, without reservation. Ordered wine and charcuterie board, it was good amount of portion for 4. Our server was attentive and made sure we were okay. Place is nice to hang around for a bit to take pictures. Overall, it's a nice experience and will definitely recommend to Yelpers.

    Came to visit the winery on a Sunday morning to celebrate some birthdays, and we went upstairs to have glasses of champagne and enjoy the views. We had previously had lunch and drinks during the weekend and so we decided to just out for drinks upstairs in the members lounge, although we would've liked to have had food served upstairs. Our overall experience with the winery has always been plentiful and joyous with the memories we have with family and friends. The parking is a little sparse, but the service and accommodations have always been five star. I would recommend this winery as one of your stops to enjoy your day.

    Love this place!!!! It has an absolutely amazing view of the mountains and rolling hills. I was so amazed by how dynamic this place was between quiet chills afternoons and entertaining/loud evenings with live music. They also offer some good food (fries), really good margaritas (they have a full bar), and great tasting wine slushies ! I love the friendly staff with the extra / heavy-handed pours that I even proposed to my girlfriend here ....she said YES! 100% recommend this place.

    Went to Temecula for a day trip with the girls. Altisima was our first stop. We had reservations at 1130 for brunch on a Saturday. The place was decent, got sat right away, and took our time ordering food and drinks. 4 drinks, 4 entrees, and 2 appetizers to share came out to about 85$ a person including tip. The food wasn't amazing, but rather decent. Some of us liked the calamari, but I didn't like it as much. I should have tried their ceviche. I ordered their tomato pasta with salmon. The salmon was way overcooked and dry. Wasn't worth what I paid for it. Eventually a live ban started playing. Lots of outdoor seating and spots to take pictures. Staff members were nice and place was clean. We were celebrating belated birthdays so they gave us churros which were good and came in perfect bite size.

    The environment here is great. The location is picturesque. There are so many reasons to visit here. The location, the wine of course, the decor and set up. Just beautiful. The atmosphere is perfect for day drinking. My friend has a membership, so we were able to be seated upstairs on the 2nd level in the members' lounge. It felt like VIP getting in that elevator. I love the view from up there. I did not drink the wine but from what I saw, the pours were very generous. The property is well kept. It is beautiful and modern with an extremely accommodating staff. Our group had a wonderful time. I will definitely visit this winery again so I can get the full experience.

    I can't wait to visit again. Altisima has some of the best food and views in Temecula! Service was excellent very quick and helpful. They have amazing wine cocktails definitely a must try!

    Visited this winery for the first time. What a beautiful venue. There's a beautiful restaurant and a tasting room. The staff is super friendly. We had Shawna who was super personable and very informative. It's a great place to visit on the weekends, enjoy the outdoors with live music. I highly recommend this winery.

    First and foremost, I will NEVER be visiting this winery EVER again. To anyone that reads this…read morereview, YOU ARE WARNED you will be subjected to the worst experience and customer service that you will probably have to ever endure. My Wife and I are appalled over what happened. To the Business Owner, Cane V., you need to train your employees, the faces of YOUR everyday business, to be more EMOTIONALLY INTUITIVE and PROFESSIONAL and have GENERAL MATURITY. Where do I start? If you are looking for a winery that has an unprofessional, rowdy brewery atmosphere that attracts Entitled Stank Faced Boomer Temecula Wine Moms and their Snobby Little Cliques LOOK NO FURTHER, THIS IS YOUR PLACE. Our Experience: my Wife and I came over to sample some wines from this winery that was recommended from a friend. On the Winery Website, you can do 2 different types of wine tastings: Classic Tastings of 6 wines of your choice or a Private Wine Tasting of 8 different ones for a higher price. This is what initially attracted my Wife and I to this winery in the first place (big mistake on our end). Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised to find out that wine tasting is no longer being offered at all. The incompetent red haired bartender at the front entrance provided us with no other alternative other than "Yea we don't offer that anymore, you can do by the glass or by the bottle." Her tone changed completely when I asked her about the Club they advertise everywhere. She then tells us that they are booked for the day, however the BAR and LAWN area are open seating, after 8PM everything is open seating. It was 6:30/7PM so we decided by that point, we'll wait for a spot to open up and enjoy some wine then in the meantime. We figured, it's just the 2 of us so we should have luck finding a spot. At the bar area, I noticed that 3 seats were left unattended. The people there got up and left, no drinks were left behind or any "Reservation" placards were placed to notify people. I walk over, sit down and wave to my Wife to come and sit at the bar area. We sat down, sipped some of our wine for 10-15 minutes. Bar had 2 people working, a gentleman and heavier set Blonde lady. Both of them never said anything and nothing was ever exchanged between us and the heavier set Blond lady. I was even thinking about buying a beer or cocktail and thankfully I didn't. Shortly after this time, an EXTREMELY RUDE, ENTITLED, and VISIBLY DRUNK lady and her husband RUDLY went in between my Wife and I and COMMANDED we leave her spots. My Wife and I laughed at her and were genuinely confused because the BAR IS OPEN SEATING, THERE ARE NO RESERVATIONS FOR OPEN SEATING. She then gets even more angry and DEMANDS we leave or else, says to my Wife and I "YOU're GOING TO LEAVE NOW," I tell the lady to kick rocks, it's open seating then she enters the bar area to talk to the heavier set Blond bar tender that we wont move. The Blond bar tender THEN has the AUDACITY to tell us "They have been sitting here all night, YOU TWO need to leave immediately." My Wife and I look at each other and absolutely laugh it off at the sheer absurdity of everyone's tone towards us. Who do you think you are to blatantly kick us out ON OPEN SEATING? Either you are severely undertrained from the Owner or you as a staff member play favorites with other entitled customers. Both of which are absolutely absurd. Upon this interaction, my Wife and I leave and go right down the street to Europa Winery and sampled several wines and had a $250 dinner at Bolero. Here, the experience was a complete 180° and we should've never wasted our time at Miramonte Winery being subjected to the nastiness from the Temecula Trash. If you are a large party, or wanting to host private events, I STRONGLY recommend ANYWHERE else besides Miramonte Winery. The Staff here is atrocious, rude, immature and ugly. I pride myself in never leaving nasty reviews but this experience changed everything moving forward.

    Very Disappointing Experience - Bolero at Europa Village…read more I am not a member of Europa Village, but I went to Bolero specifically because I wanted to try their "large seafood paella." Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing. We were a group of 10 people, and our server was very pushy about ordering the chicken paella and suggested getting two small paellas instead of the large seafood paella we originally wanted. I felt like she was not listening to what our group actually wanted, and the service was not good. The seafood paella was $70, which I expected to be worth the price. Unfortunately, the rice was burned, and there was almost no seafood--just one shell and a very tiny piece of calamari buried in a large amount of rice. The rice tasted like packaged or prepared rice, rather than freshly made paella. We also tried the chicken paella, and it was just as disappointing. There was only one piece of chicken with a large amount of rice, and nobody in our group liked it. Almost everyone at our table had a negative comment about the paella. In the end, we were so disappointed that we left most of the food and threw it away. For $70, I expected a much better-quality dish, especially from a winery restaurant. The should call "RICE PAELLA," Unfortunately, the food and service did not live up to our expectations, and I would not order the paella again.

Absolute best after a long night in boots . It was such a nice touch after a night of dancing. Such a fun way to spend a Friday with your girlfriends. We'll definitely be making this a tradition.

He was knowledgeable about the wines and did a great job explaining the pairings. The scenery is absolutely beautiful, and the pond is gorgeous. It's a great setting to relax, enjoy some wine, and take in the views. They also have a nice selection of wines to choose from. Unfortunately, the food options were a bit of a letdown. I was particularly disappointed in what they presented as a charcuterie board. There were no jams, olives, or brie, and the overall presentation was pretty underwhelming. The walnuts presentation were also soft and soggy. How do walnuts get that way unless they've been sitting out too long?! The "charcuterie board" came in a square paper box and for $42.00, I expected a much better presentation and options. Honestly, it just felt blah and wasn't what I would typically expect from a winery. Overall, the wine, service, and beautiful surroundings made for an enjoyable visit. I just wish the food offerings and presentation were more in line with the rest of the experience. I'd consider coming back for the wine and scenery, but I hope they improve their food selection. On another note, my friend order the truffle fries. It was okay but it was barely dusted with truffle.

Inside the tasting room they did have live music as well. We lucked out and came the first day they opened the kitchen so they have pizzas now! I think most of the ladies ordered themselves one. I also got a glass of montepulciano which is the perfect red for a hot day. The pizza was delicious and I loved the wine. The service was great, everyone was very friendly and helpful.

    When this place first opened, right before Covid, the employees were friendly, helpful, and kind…read more We signed up for the wine club. No pressure sales. It was a smaller venue. There were Adirondack chairs outside, cornhole, etc. It was such a welcoming place. There were food trucks from which to purchase Mexican food etc. out in the parking lot. After Covid, they expanded which is great. The comfy Adirondack chairs turned into metal tables and chairs. The space feels much more crammed. It does not feel so relaxed anymore. And as for the employees, snarky comments should never be tolerated. My daughter-in-law had her mother's retirement party at this establishment. Initially, the woman she talked to on the phone was not very helpful or welcoming. Some other gentleman was VERY helpful and gave the impression that this party was welcome here. On the night of the event, 15 people actually showed up. We had three tables inside. There was one party of 4 in the back corner. The place was empty. There were a few people outside enjoying the live music. The music was great. Anyway, we brought some of our Somerset wines from home but also ordered beers, pizza and champagne. It's not like we were merely using their facility with no benefit to them. A couple came in and used another inside table. Again, there was still open seating inside. We weren't loud. We were respectful. We spent money. When it came time to cut the cake, we asked to borrow a knife. The female employee's comment was, "We can't lend you a knife. This is why we tell people to bring cupcakes" in a very condescending and rude tone. There was absolutely no excuse for that demeanor. She should have been kind. And as a side note, any time someone from our party walked up to the tasting counter, the employees didn't acknowledge them. A male and female were talking to each other and told us we needed to wait. What kind of customer service is that?? I've read through many of the comments and it sounds like bridal parties and bachelor parties are perfectly acceptable. And we all know how rowdy they can get. But our quiet retirement party did not feel welcomed. Go to Peltzer if you're in the area. Great vibe! Very chill! Amazing Sangrias and slushies.

We find ourselves revisiting Akash, but never crossed over from taster to member. UNTIL Nisreen Rafeedie was hired, she brings the best smile, experience, and makes you feel like family. What you experience at Akash, when Nisreen is behind the counter: - You are creating a friendship! -She gives every person who walks through the door the best service! -She is knowledgeable about Wine and will work with you to find perfect taste to meet your palette! These are just a few amazing things that we love about her and why we signed up to be members. Hands down, she elevates Akash as bringing one of the best wineries in the Valley. You got a gem when she came to Akash.

The counters where you drink wine are on wheels, which gives it even more of an industrial feel . The building itself is not that pretty. It looks like an old airplane hanger. The fixtures inside, such as the lighting, were a bit cheap looking. The furniture inside was comfortable. The wine tasting room has no restrooms inside. The building was filled with flies that kept landing on our heads. The grounds are very nice, with nice views, comfortable outside furniture, and equipped with misters and heaters. The employees were friendly. The food offerings when we were there were very minimal. The crowd was overwhelmingly in their 20's, which if representative is fine, but also telling in terms of the appeal of the wines here to more experienced palates. Speaking of which, we did not really care for any of the reds that we tasted. We did not taste a single wine that we would be interested in buying. They lacked body, balance, and complexity. I should add that the wine tasting room is also the barrel room, yet it was at room temperature. Red wine barrels are supposed to be stored at 55 - 60F, not room temp. All other wineries manage this temperature requirement vigorously. This is most certainly affecting the taste of the final product. I know this place has good reviews, but it just doesn't seem to be up to the standard of some of the nicer wineries in Temecula.

Great get seated after 2 big parties. Also in a booth in the bar area. Very nice booth. We were sat without menus first. Luckily a nice bartender I assume gave us menus. Nobody came for at least 5 minutes as we decided on drinks and all are food. Finally got a server, ordered everything because we were ready. An appetizer, a salad, and paella. To share and each a cocktail. Sooooo the appetizer comes. And we're waiting a few and then a few turns into 10 minutes. We are almost done with our appetizer. No server in sight I look over to the bar no drinks. So I go up to the Hose stand to ask where our drinks are it appears there might've been a manager there, but they ran away. The host said where are you pointed at our table. Got our server. She came over to let us know that they were waiting on juice. We now have our second course and luckily our drink. I probably would've ordered another cocktail, but it was already 25 minutes into our meal. So I did order finally a glass of wine. To go with our paella. We had a tomato salad with that was lacking in flavor and very underwhelming. The paella comes we have the seafood one. It is hot. It is also overcooked, and I saw no calamari and we had very little seafood. I would say this was not the best paella I have had. Which is unfortunate as my friend kept saying this is the best she ever had when she had been there before. I asked her if she ever had been to café Seville. Where they have what I consider the best paella. But this is also Temecula so I really don't expect much from this area. They were very busy so maybe I just had a bad moment and I hope that that is true and everyone else has a great experience there. I wish a manager had been present to be aware of what was happening on the floor during a possible breakfast to lunch transition
