There was so much to experience, and I'm so glad we went. I especially want to recognize Philip for his outstanding service. At one point, I accidentally dropped my glass of sangria and the wine glass shattered. Philip appeared almost instantly with a broom and took care of everything. Then, without me even asking, he asked what I had been drinking and went and got me a brand-new glass of sangria to replace it. When I thanked him, he simply said, "My pleasure," and you could tell he truly meant it. He genuinely seems to enjoy what he does and taking care of guests. That kind of service really stands out and made an already great event even more memorable. Great job, Europa, and a special thank you to Philip!

Europa Village is such a beautiful spot and a great place to spend the day! We stopped by the…read moreSpanish Village and had some food while we were there, and the tapas were really good. Everything we tried was flavorful and perfect for sharing. We had the Ceviche, Empanadas, and Croquettes. The Ceviche was a little too sweet for my liking, I prefer the ones on the limey side. The whole property has such a charming European-inspired atmosphere, which made the experience feel like a little getaway without having to travel far. It's a great place to relax, enjoy some wine, grab a few tapas, and take in the scenery. Definitely a fun spot for a date, girls' day, or just a relaxing afternoon. Would love to come back and explore more of the different villages!

Great service, beautiful atmosphere, and I love that they offer different events throughout the weekends, which makes every visit feel a little different. Great wine, delicious food, and a fun atmosphere. Definitely a Temecula wine country favorite!

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.

Okay, if you're looking for the cutest girls' night, this is it. A few of us went to Vitagliano…read moreWinery on a Friday for the country line dancing lessons, and we had the best time. I was low-key panicking when we pulled in because parking looked completely full, but somehow I found a spot at the very last minute, so don't lose hope if it looks packed. The wine was actually really good, the staff was so friendly, and everyone there was just there to have a fun night. The line dancing was beginner-friendly, so even if you've never done it before, you'll catch on pretty quickly. Also... the little golf cart shuttle that takes you back to the parking lot afterward? 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.

Come to find out from our first shipment that they no longer are going to make it AND will NOT be filling September order. The wine "manager" Sofia is the worst. She has an attitude and is argumentative. She shouldn't be in any type of position like that. Another manager had to step in as the wine "manager" was making the situation worse. We went to their wine pick up party which food was good but not worth the money we paid. And we left with no wine. So that's a bummer all together! Obviously canceled and requested our money back. Yes pretty venue but experience through and through was so poor.

My group of 9 gals stopped by Briar Rose Winery as part of our Bachelorette Party Day in Temecula…read more Briar Rose Winery is a beautiful, family-owned and operated vineyard and definitely worth the trip out here. If you're looking for a hidden gem, this is it! It's all in the details; the cobblestone exterior, the paved paths, the scenic view, how the sun peaks through the trees, just wow! They had multiple options of wine tasting; you can pick from a mixed white and red wine tasting, or a full red, or white tasting. You can also order a bottle or glass by itself if you don't want the full tasting. As a gal who doesn't dabble in the fine art of tasting wine or drinking alcohol, they also had a couple delicious sparkling fruit drink options for me and a couple of other gals in my party, which was sweet, and delicious. The gals said they absolutely loved the Riesling white wine and it was perfectly sweet. I was able to book the whole experience and the table seating online on their website, and the whole process was easy. They email you a confirmation right away and all we did was show up. Upon checking in, we just informed one of the team members we have arrived and they let us pick our table outside. The reservation did note there would be a tour of some sort first, but that wasn't offered upon our arrival but that's okay! It is a bit hard to get ahold of someone on the phone, but I had a great experience speaking to their AI on the telephone and didn't notice until a minute into the phone call that they are AI. Talk about technology over here, woo! The AI was able to answer all my questions around where to park, are there signs directing us to the winery, if our party can have both wine-drinkers and non-drinkers, they answered it all and was spot on. Their winery also offers a fun shopping experience inside and put out these cottage-core long dresses and lacey tops you can try on and purchase. It looked like it was personally curated and it definitely had my gals and I hooked from the start. The only thing is that there is only 1 changing room, that is also the bathroom, so the line was always long and you would feel bad for taking too much time in there if you want to try things on. The team here made sure we were comfortable and even helped us take photos, and treated us very well for our first visit. All of us had a great time and left with a bottles of wine to take home!

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.

GENERALLY OPEN LATER - MUST GO ON A SUNDAY EVENING!…read more I do not frequent Temecula very often. I've only been here a few times. Visiting wineries is a fun way to spend a Sunday in Temecula, yet the only down side is that the majority of wineries close at 5pm. The Peltzer, however, is open a bit later and usually till 7pm. I have a very nice time here. The two wines I tried here were very good. The service was friendly and welcoming. I happened to love the vibe and decor here a bit more as it was not all restaurant orientated. It felt more like a family friendly brewery where you can bring a board game and sip some wine and enjoy your time with friends. I would definitely come back to the Peltzer!

I did not get my food until 7:05pm. Two employees were running the food truck and only one was working on the orders. By the time my food was handed to me it was past the time to go. Post ordering I was given a buzzer and was told to stay near because if it went off and I wasn't close it might not buzz. All of my friends were in the member area of the winery so I opted to stay near the food truck. I did ask about my order, I asked for it to just be cancelled but was told that it was being worked on; one hour later I finally received the smallest most bare carne asada nachos and a small quesadilla.

The grounds and overall atmosphere are definitely one of its strongest qualities. That said, when it comes to the service and the wine itself, there are definitely better options in Temecula. The pours were surprisingly small -- well under what you would expect -- and the service felt impersonal. Unfortunately, the experience lacked the warmth and attentiveness that make a wine tasting feel enjoyable and memorable. As for the wine, we found it not very palatable, especially in comparison to Bolero next door, which offered a much more enjoyable overall experience. While Callaway has the advantage of a gorgeous view, the quality of the wine and the hospitality simply did not measure up for us. Overall, it's a lovely place to visit for the scenery, but if your priority is excellent wine and welcoming service, there are stronger choices nearby.
