The Host was super chill and they are friendly with the pours. Great place to chill after a hard day at work.

I love the wine, the atmosphere and all the entertainment. Great place great music and great prices.

I tried getting them to give me wine that was owed to me from the monthly membership, and still haven't. I had been a member since they were at their old location by UCR. We had a grandfathered in membership and they wanted me to switch over when they moved. I didn't switch over because the prices were triple what I was paying before. Because of the close and being pregnant, my wine accumulated and I was owed a bunch of wine bottles. I was only able to collect 6 at a time because of a new limit. I tried going back and was hit with a "under new ownership." This winery has gone down since the initial switch in ownership, and even more now. Service has gone down, the ambiance isn't the same, and they don't honor anything. I called multiple times and they just brush everything I was saying off and use the "new management" or "new ownership" excuse. It's quite a drive for me, so I don't like to just pop in because the schedule is all over the place. We've shown up before when it was supposed to be open, just for it to be closed. I pretty much gave up at this point, and am deeply disappointed that I paid all this money for something I didn't receive. I do not recommend this winery. Just take the extra few minutes drive to Temecula for a better experience. read more

We were told to bring in our own food and when we did we were told we weren't allowed to bring in our own food?!! The wines all tasted the same! The live band was good! read more

We were thinking of booking the venue for an event. They never responded to the email I sent, so we decided to go in person. Website stated it was open at 4, but when we arrived at 4:30, it was closed. read more

I came here on a Monday for an Expedia Princess Cruises presentation. I can't speak for the wine or their food since it was a private event. I can speak for the ambience of the place and service. The decor was on point. The chairs were made out of wine barrels! They really stuck to the wine theme and I loved it! I was given a ticket for a wine glass but for health reasons I don't drink. I asked for non alcoholic options and got a bottle of water. She took my ticket! I guess if I want a second bottle of water I have to pay. I'm not sure. The service was OK. read more

Great and super friendly staff!!! Extremely helpful and they're knowledgeable about their wines. I gave it 4 stars because they don't sell food. You can go to Stater Bros next door and purchase food and bring it into the winery. Nice location and very clean! read more

I'm giving this place a three because I enjoyed the line dancing there with Jeff so much! Thank you for opening your doors to him as there is no good line Dancing in the Riverside area. The place is really cute. I'm not a wine drinker, but I wanted to Buy a drink there and support the establishment. I asked the waitress if they had something similar to champagne, she said no, and pointed out some sweet sparkling wines. She told me the almond was the least sweet of them, so I ordered one. It was $12, which is fine. It was a nice pour. Unfortunately I took three sips and really didn't like it, it was way too sweet and I knew if I drank the whole thing I would be sick. I asked them to exchange it for a Coors light, the 2 waitresses both told me no. I was shocked! I've never seen a bar deny taking back a drink that a patron did not like, or they offer a taster up front. I shared this with them, they held firm in their denial to swap the drink out. I told them I'd be leaving this review because That's really not the expectation patrons have these days, especially in Orangecrest!! I will go back to do line dancing with Jeff, I'll stick to beer. I suggest up training your staff, this Orangecrest crowd is not going to let you get away with that kind of service. I feel like it's a buyer beware there from me, for now. Suggestion: If your staff was experienced, or trained properly, they would've offered me a taster before I bought a whole glass! Maybe somewhere it was posted final sale or no exchanges. But they didn't point that out to me upon my ask. ‍ read more

In April, I joined as a club member. I was charged monthly $43 and it included two bottles of wine per month. In August, the business was moving location's to Mission Grove plaza in riverside. During this time, I was still being charged monthly and had reached out multiple times regarding when I could pick up the wine bottles due to me. They stated the new location would open by September. In October, I found the new location and it was no where close to being completed. I reached out immediately to request a refund of the monthly charges and requested to cancel my membership and till this day they have not responded! They are wrongfully charging customers for services they are not providing! The picture below was taken this December 2023. It's no where close to opening any time soon! I ended up filing a claim and stop payment on the monthly auto-pay. They haven't followed up and are still attempting to charge my account. Due to the stop payment, they can no longer debt my account. They have provided horrible customer service to their loyal customer's. I hope once they do open to make things right by their clients! read more

Everything was amazing, the people their 08/10/25 were fun we had a blast. They had a band there that night and they played great music.

The Sparkling Mango Is sooo Good. It's Smooth and Sweet. You have to try it!! The service was also great, they were very welcoming and accommodating. Only thing is they don't service food so be sure to either eat before you come or bring a platter with you if your hosting a party! read more

Canyon Crest Winery - The Sparkling mango - Wine Bars Near Me - Riverside, California

We came here for the first time a couple of days ago. Place is ok. Kinda hidden but we found it. We tried flights. Wine selection is average. I wish I could give a 5 stars. But the service is not good to our like to be honest. I think customer service could be better. The place needs a little more warm welcoming besides the lack of service from the worker. Maybe we went in the wrong day or the week, maybe the bad mood or I don't know. But we didn't feel welcomed. We tried it. That's life, c'est la vie, asi es la vida read more

The wine selection is nice enough considering the size of the operation. A lot of the wines are quite mild but enjoyable. The servers are nice enough and polite enough to answer questions as they arise. The ambience is arguably the very best part! However, my main complaint is the extremely limited food menu while not allowing guests to bring in their own snacks. My first time here I brought cheese, fruit, and crackers considering we had a wine flight. The next time they had prohibited doing so while only serving pricy appetizers. I may buy a bottle of a wine from here from time to time but I certainly don't think I'll sit down for service following this second experience, which is a bummer! Would have loved to support a smaller business as flights at a winery are so fun and a lovely date night - but it isn't sensical in my opinion. Until the menu is expanded past fried food and three pizzas, I think guests should have the option to bring in charcuterie type snacks at the very least (because let's be honest, 4 dollars per microwaved egg roll is crazy.) read more

I didn't know what to expect. I thought it would be a traditional winery. Place is small but super cute. The vibe is awesome. Customer service was amazing. They're having a jazz band tonight with dancing. Which I thought was cool. Really enjoyed myself. Especially after a very long day at work. Everyone was super friendly The vibe was great. Customers inside all seemed to be enjoying themselves The best thing about it iS the price!! 5 for $15 or check in on Yelp and get 5 for 10!! Super cool. They have a great selection of wines. Will be back Really enjoyed myself. read more

I do NOT want to give a bad review to a Black owned business but it is well deserved. First of all, they don't open at 2. They open whenever she decides to get there. Secondly the wine is very low quality and fruity. It's like barefoot wine quality. The staff is fun and the place was clean though! read more

This place is pretty solid. I didn't know what to expect when walking in, but I was quite pleased! We came in with the intention of just buying a bottle of wine for a family event, but ended up staying a to try out their wine flight because it was $15.00 for (5) 1oz pours of your choice. We both got our own flights and tried each wine from a different category: white, red, fruit, sparkling, and dessert. I like sweeter wines, so I had a kick out of the sparkling peach and ice wine. However, my favorite hands down was the acai berry wine (omg). During our tasting, the workers let us know we can help ourselves to some snacks which consisted of chips, crackers, and cookies. We loved that because it was fun to munch on while we were sippin'. When we were about to head out, the workers let us know that a food truck was going to come by. We actually walked around CC a bit and then came back to try out the food truck. Notes: This is a boutique winery, meaning, it's a small establishment. read more

I don't like to give bad reviews. The wine I tried was ok. They have several tasting packs you can buy. They come on a wine tasting tree which I like. The only complaint I have is the service. All she did was sit by the cash register. She did not engage with customers often. She asked if I wanted my receipt. I told her yes because I scan the receipts to the Fetch application. I told her how fun Fetch is, and you get cash rewards. She told me no thanks. Then said, if you need the money. I felt that was horrible to say. Why, say that comment. Like I said, I do Fetch for fun. I go to whinery often and a member of several whinery in Temecula. I travel a lot for business in Napa. I have never received bad customer service in any whinery till now. Why work in an industrial that is gear to talking to people. read more

We enjoyed ourselves so much visiting this place. Good music friendly people and a good atmosphere for meeting up with friends and having some good wines. The night we attended was a sold out show for Oscar Swan and some Pendergrass nostalgia. Come by on weekends you can hear the fun outside on the sidewalk. Many thumbs up. Shout out to Rose for gracefully handling the crowd that showed up. Also has some food for sale depending on the evening. Call and check out the coming events. read more

If you're thinking about coming here, DON'T. My boyfriend & I came here for the first time yesterday & the customer service we received was horrible!! For staters they don't open at 2pm as advertised. We walk in & weren't even greeted by the employee. We would ask her questions in regards to the wine & all she would say is "I don't know. I don't like that wine" etc. rather then making suggestions to us based off of what sells most. We did not feel welcomed at alllll so for that reason that will be our first & last time giving this place our money. I really wish I could give this place ZERO STARS. read more

Absolutely loved this place. From the pictures in Yelp, it looked so small and is a small winery, so we didn't expect much but went for one of the "Paint & Sip" events and it was awesome. Did a 5 wine taster sampler and ended up buying a bottle of one of the tasters. Only 48 dollars total. Very nice pours on the tasters and properly chilled. Excellent and friendly staff. Very attentive and interactive. Clean bathroom. All you can eat pretzels, cookies and water. Definitely going back. read more

Fun spot to enjoy wine. Their service is responsive. Large selection to enjoy from. Great spot to enjoy with a group.

I'm so happy that I have found a winery close to home! The best part is the wines here are so good! Wines that I highly recommend are: Australian Sauvignon Blanc Classico Chilean Malbec Smoked jalapeño The smoked jalapeño red wine was so unique and tasty that I bought 3 bottles!!! Hector was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. We had a good time hanging out and conversing with him about the history of the winery, the wines in general, and about music and other random stuff. He made us feel very welcomed and we are even going back this week to check out the bingo night! Excited to bring friends here and see what new blends they create over time. I highly recommend this place! read more

I am so in love with the little winery. Sandra is literally one of the nicest and more personable people I've ever encountered in the service industry. I started coming pre-COVID and she always went out of her way to make us feel comfortable. She works be herself and I have never seen her with any help or assistance. Even when it is busy, it is just Sandra taking care of us all. During the shut down, she was still delivering orders, making herself available for pick ups, etc. There were times when the online reset system wasn't working or the phone wasn't being answered, but I gave it a pass because I know she's alone. Now that we are open again, I am back and Sandra is her same awesome self. They do not serve food, but do allow you to bring your own in. There is a jukebox so you can choose your own music and there are some games available to play as well. I love this place. read more

When I came inside, the worker was not friendly at all, and so I told her what I needed to order. So then I was waiting for her to get my order, but instead of getting my order so I could pay, she started to get glasses and wine for another table who came in after me. I felt like she was just making me wait so I left. I won't be going back. read more

Great show and wine! Service wonderful! We will be back! I only wish they had more food or charcuterie boards.

As a bingo fan, I returned for Wednesday night bingo after a loooong break. They now have flights: 3 for $9 and 5 for $15. My bestie and I had some tasty fruit wines. She actually won 2 of the 3 games, which resulted in 2 free bottles of an almond sparkling grape! The games were free. Bring your own food, per there is no food handlers license. Karaoke Tuesday, Live music Friday. The hostess was very down to earth and friendly. She also had a great playlist. read more
