Great wine, delicious food, and a fun atmosphere. Definitely a Temecula wine country favorite!

I've had great times at this winery years ago when I frequented Temecula wineries. I decided to…read morevisit here recently with family to sample some wines together, and the experience left much to desire. If you're not part of their wine club membership, you will be forced to sit in their lawn area--the seats and views are not great and the space is very limited. Meanwhile, their membership area has lounge tables and cooling fans, but it is strictly reserved for members despite it being completely empty at the time. The associates at the wine tasting room were not welcoming nor were they attentive either as they often talked amongst themselves even with patrons around. With how long Miramonte Winery has been around, it's unfortunate to see the service and ambiance go completely downhill. There are plenty of other wineries in Temecula at this point that I would rather visit than to come here again. I strongly suggest going elsewhere if you want to visit a winery with great atmosphere and views. I gave an extra star because the place is not the worst, it looks to be clean, the wine is decent, but the winery itself is far from good nor is it worth your time or money.

A Special Place for Our Family -- From Vision to Reality!…read more Europa Village Winery was the perfect place for a memorable date night! My wife surprised me with this experience because she knows how much I love wine and spending time at wineries, and she absolutely nailed it. We started our evening at the Secret Room Speakeasy, enjoying cocktails, delicious burrata, and fried calamari before heading over to enjoy some red wines. The combination of great food, drinks, and the beautiful winery atmosphere made for a wonderful evening together. What makes Europa Village especially meaningful to us is our family's personal connection to the project. My family was one of the founding members involved during its early days, so seeing how far it has come and what it has become today as a destination for visitors and wine lovers is truly an incredible experience. Watching the vision unfold into what Europa Village is now fills us with a tremendous sense of pride and appreciation. It was more than just a date night for us. It was an opportunity to revisit a place connected to our family's history, reflect on how much it has grown, and appreciate the experience it offers to so many people today. A special thank-you to my wife for planning such a thoughtful surprise and bringing me somewhere that means so much to us. If you're looking for a romantic getaway with cocktails, delicious appetizers, beautiful surroundings, and excellent red wine, Europa Village is absolutely worth visiting. Great wine, wonderful ambiance, meaningful memories, and a beautiful story behind it all. We'll definitely be back!

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.

Will definitely be returning to this winery. The food and live music was spectacular.

SERVICE: Jalynne, our Leoness hostess, is a consummate (and cheerful) professional. After her informative, concise overview of Leonesses offerings, we opted (as the vast number of guests there) for the "brunch" buffet. Despite the guest-crush, all staffers we encountered were knowledgeable, courteous, efficient and good listeners. Qualities which made our visit an absolute pleasure! FOOD: All selections we had - customized omelets; other eggs; prime rib; shrimp cocktail; mahi-mahi; multiple potato preparations; waffles; salads; fresh-cut fruits: all quite tasty, fresh and adequate. WINES: Once we were ready to munch and sip, - aside from our main beverages - we experienced a memorable (member's) wine tasting. WOW! curated by Jalynne, her presentations were well-timed and just paired perfectly with our food choices - Jalynne can conduct her way through an orchestra of food ... incredible! Our non-sommelier judgement? Their wines are superb! AMBIENCE: The external and interior layouts, the views, the tasting room/store area all are beautiful - interiors are well designed and quite ergonomically laid out. Leoness, it appears you are taking care of business and your staff - they are taking care of you!

The views from the top were gorgeous, especially since we arrived around sunset and got to overlook the vineyards. Getting to the restaurant was part of the experience. We walked through the wine barrel area before reaching our private dining space, and the name definitely speaks for itself because you're literally dining inside a cave! The dim lighting, ambiance, and beautiful table setting made the evening feel extra special. We started with the chimichurri fries, which were so good! The bread with melted cheese and marinara was another favorite. We had a set menu for dinner, and I chose the Maine lobster followed by the cannolis for dessert. The lobster was a little overcooked for me, but it was seasoned well and the presentation was beautiful. The cannolis were delicious! Our servers were wonderful and very attentive throughout the evening. Overall, we had a great dining experience and such a fun night with the group. I definitely want to come back and try their wine tasting next 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.

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.

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.

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
