Best known for their white wines! A must try
Kimmy P.

I came here a second time today try the food and get some work done on a nice fall after noon. The weather is so perfect this year round. It's nice and quiet here with soft music. Be sure to come on a weekday for an exclusive experience. Service was amazing as always.

This was my first time at this winery and I was not disappointed at all! My friend is a member of the winery so we were seated in the outdoor member lounge area and enjoyed a beautiful view of the winery itself. The weather was gorgeous, sun was shining, there was a nice breeze also. Our server was Antonio and he was very helpful going through the wine list with me and helping me choose flavors he thought I'd like the most since I don't ever drink wine. He also helped suggest some bites so we went with the chicken salad and Italian deli meat mini sandwiches along with the charcuterie plate. Antonio was very attentive and checked on us often. The food came out pretty quickly, our favorite was the chicken salad sandwich and I would say which wine was my favorite from the tasting if I could remember the name lol but I cannot all I remember is it was white, chilled and sweet! The whole experience was amazing and I highly recommend trying this place out!

First time here and I would say this winery is very modern. I think it was very beautiful and clean. It gives really good vacation vibes and views. They have good indoor seating and outdoor seating and even a pool and cabana which is discounted for members. They have a really good sparkling rose that was bomb!! Was def my favorite The service was decent could have been more attentive but it was pretty busy. I feel they need more food options and play better music for good atmosphere. I would say try here if you're coming to Temecula!

This place has a fun fresh feel, a white building against the green rows of vines. Our visit was on a very warm day, so once you enter the AC feels amazing. The staff was very friendly right from the start, given us options of either the barrel room, main room with spectacular views or the patio overlooking the pool. (Pool only open seasonal for any visitors). We did a wine flight $32 a bit pricy but overall good experience. Had a very relaxing time there and enjoy the music.

Beautiful venue. We reserved seats for $40 each a week or two beforehand to save spaces. When we arrived, they had a walk in special that came up to $27! The walk in special included lounge chairs, two glasses of sangria and a wristband to access a private changing room. We were served by Quincy, such a cool guy, very nice and helpful. We ordered the chicken nachos which were tasty but the chips were thin, they weren't very crunchy. We also ordered a side of fries and a burger that came with fries. The burger was cool, I wish it had more pickles and a sauce maybe. The sangria was light and refreshing. We then ordered the bottaia pecorino white and the angry wife white. The pecorino had a lightly sweet after taste but was good. The angry wife white wine was light, not much flavor profile. The weather was perfect, the pool was fullll! Kids, families, friends etc. It is 5ft and it felt like we were at a backyard pool party.

The property and vineyard

This was my first time here, and went with a group of five others (one of whom is a member there). We were taken outside to the massive patio overlooking the vineyard. There were so many tables and comfortable couches; the perfect setting for a nice wine tasting. Bernadette was our hostess for the tasting, and she was wonderful! You can either buy wines by the glass, or you can custom- build your fight of four tastings. I chose the flight, and Bernadette was able to describe all of the wines on the menu so I could put together the perfect tasting for my palette. They offer items you can snack on with your wine. We got a charcuterie plate and hummus; both were perfect! Their specialty is Italian varietals, so if you want a comfortable place to sip on some, this is your place! NOTE: They also have a POOL onsite, which would make for a fantastic summer tasting excursion!

Me with my bottle of wine that I blended
Nanci H.

I love love love this winery! It's beautiful! I've been wanting to do wine blending here and it was perfect for my birthday! Lucky us! It was a private experience! It was just us two and our wine connoisseur! It was so much fun and best of all... You get to bottle your wine and take it home after you blend one you like. We also given a private tour of the winery and we got to sit in the members-only section. We are not members so this was a treat! The view in this section is just breathtaking! Our wine connoisseur gave me free bubbly for my birthday. Service here is phenomenal! We will definitely return and I highly recommend the wine blending. Their wine is delicious!!!

Went to try the famous Temecula wineries and Bottaia was talked about a lot so I decided to take a visit with my partner and do their charcuterie & wine tasting package. Upon arriving, we waited about 5 minutes to be seated and were greeted by a great view of the winery, though it was the wrong season to see the grapes growing and stuff. Our waitress was super helpful and pleasant, describing each of the wines and their rich history as she was pouring us some to taste. The charcuterie board to was a stunning display of different fruits, vegetables, cheeses, nuts and crackers, some of which I was afraid to try but mustered up the courage to when the waitress described which foods paired with which wines. Each recommendation was spot on and to be completely honest, there was nothing on my plate that I didn't enjoy, my partner included. This nice experience ended with dessert and a dessert wine which both paired great with each other and made us question if we should get a bottle to bring home as a souvenir Overall a fantastic experience that I'm glad to call my first ever wine tasting and I'll definitely be recommending to my friends!

Followed suit with my friend getting one tasting of champagne along with my reds
Heather W.

Loved this place; what a vibe. The moment you step into the lobby you feel like you are in a special place. The super high ceilings of a modern farmhouse, the stunning macro botanical art on the walls of the waiting area (I never knew I needed b&w close-ups of dandelions, but now I do), the large window across from you looking out to the vineyard. Modern chic and inviting. We had stopped by once just to check things out and learn about the seasonal pool hangout and admire the sunset, but only recently came to do a wine tasting and snacks. We sat on the outside patio closest to the vineyard on a beautiful January afternoon that approached chilly as the sun was setting and the winds picked up. Our friend is a member so we got to enjoy come complimentary tastings. Their wine varieties are unfamiliar to me but with a description of the type of red I was seeking the server nailed it. I enjoyed everything I tasted as I nice balanced daytime reds - great stuff here!! We got the small plate of olives and almonds that were tasty and definitely stayed a while. I would really like to rent some poolside time this year!

Entering the facility is like checking in to a hotel. Seating is quite comfortable inside and out. The charcuterie selection is nice to choose from.Wine is delicious, beautiful view of the vineyards, and wonderful service. Many more services are available upon request.

I went with a couple of friends to celebrate my friend's bachelorette, and overall we had a great time. We spent most of the day by the pool, which was amazing -- especially since it was so hot. There's a bar right next to the pool and the vineyards, which made it super convenient and added to the experience. The season was actually wrapping up and everything closes on Sunday, so we caught it just in time. Prices were a little on the higher side, but the vibe made up for it was lively, fun, and perfect for a celebration. You can also get your own cabana, which adds a nice touch if you're going with a group. At the end we all dressed up and had a tasting there before we headed out.

Avivi W.

I absolutely loved my experience wine tasting here! It was such a wonderful vibe and honestly comparable to some of my Napa tasting experiences!! The service here was wonderful, the food pairings were delicious, and the wine was also great!! I absolutely love and adore this winery so much and will be coming back again!!

Cabine, with shower
Suzanne R.

Saw this place on Tik Tok and decided to try it out. Luckily I live 5 minutes away so it was no hassle to get there. I had made an online reservation for two a few days prior and showed up at 11am and was helped quite quickly. The process was smooth and quick. The staff here is great, no complaints at all. I paid $50 for the private cabine which includes a shower, mirror, shampoo, body wash etc. it's a great feeling to rinse off after the pool & sun and change in a clean space. The $50 also includes two chairs and umbrella, towels, and two sangrias. Pretty good deal for an all day by the pool in beautiful wine country. We stayed from 11-3:30. Our server was Quincy and he was awesome!! He came by, took our order (we got the nachos) got us water, soda, and my beers. He was very attentive and on it at all times. Everyone working here is really great. There are two sets of bathrooms close by, a bar, little splash area, cabanas for rent and a lifeguard on duty. It was really relaxing, my daughter and I had a nice time. The only drawbacks are that kids are allowed, so there is some noise and splashing around activity. I'm a mom so I have nothing against kids it just doesn't fit the vibe for me. The food wasn't too bad in price but the nachos had barely any chicken and they were just meh. They do play music in the background which is nice too. It's a beautiful setting and I really enjoyed the laid back day with my daughter. I totally recommend if you are in the area and want a little pool day before wine tasting or sightseeing Temecula. Our city is the best!!!

We celebrated our anniversary at Truffle Pig on Saturday, April 25. After reading so many positive…read morereviews, we were expecting a high-end, memorable experience. Unfortunately, the best word to describe the evening is mixed, leaning toward disappointment. Starting with the positives. The facility is beautiful. We were seated in what they call the outdoor area, though it feels fully enclosed and comfortable. Despite a cool, rainy evening and some initial trouble getting the heaters working near us, we stayed warm and were able to enjoy the setting. Service had a rough start. After being seated, we received water from a busser but then waited 10 to 15 minutes without any acknowledgment from a server. Not even a quick "I'll be right with you." We were close to leaving when another waitress noticed and stepped in. She apologized, took over our table, and from that point on was excellent. Attentive, friendly, and professional. Because of her, service ultimately deserves high marks despite the initial lapse. The restaurant was also extremely loud. There was a large group of teenagers celebrating a birthday, a bridal party, and several lively tables that had clearly been enjoying wine for the day. While that's not entirely the restaurant's fault, it did take away from what we expected to be a more intimate anniversary dinner. Now, the food, which was the biggest disappointment. We started with the Caesar salad and Burrata. The Burrata was excellent. The Caesar salad, however, was mediocre at best, and at $18 should have been much better. For entrées, I ordered the sea bass. At $48, it was overcooked, nearly tasteless, and served in a soupy mixture that was difficult to identify. The presentation in a small, awkward bowl didn't help. It was simply not good. My wife ordered the Taleggio Pappardelle with mushrooms and added chicken. The dish lacked clarity and flavor, and the chicken was also overcooked. To their credit, they brought out a complimentary cheesecake for our anniversary, which ended up being the best tasing part of the meal. We also ordered a bottle of wine, choosing their lowest-priced blend. At many restaurants, that can be a gamble, but in this case it was excellent wine (and we are knowledgeable wine snobs.) They graciously comped the wine due to the slow start in service, which we truly appreciated and felt was handled very well. Overall, this experience fell short of expectations, especially when it came to the food. That said, there were enough positives to acknowledge; Service, once corrected, was excellent. The setting is beautiful. The wine was surprisingly good. It's possible we simply caught them on an off night in the kitchen. We may consider trying them again in the future. Final ratings: Service: 5 stars (thanks to the recovery) Ambience: 3 stars (beautiful, but very loud) Food: 1 star With everything considered, a reluctant overall rating of 4 stars -- a mix of strong positives and some significant misses.

You buy a tasting card at the counter and then you can try any six wines on their menu. Their most popular is the almond sparkling wine and they offer a variety of other flavors. We tried lots of different wines including the sauvignon blanc and petite sirah but our favorites were the different sparkling wines. It was less of a quiet wine-tasting vibe and more like a party-vibe. There were tons of people and we saw a lot of bachelorette parties. The music was loud and there was a fun social vibe. There were still some vineyards that you could walk through and take pictures, but the core of the action is where the food and drinks are. Even though it was geared toward adults I saw a lot of kids and strollers around. We spent a couple hours here drinking the different wines and relaxing at the table. It was fun to people-watch and just enjoy the experience and energy. If you are coming to Temecula Wine Country, this should be one of the places on your list to visit.
