We have been members since 2021. This is our absolute favorite winery! We were sold with the White Cabernet. We keep it stocked at our house always! We love all the new events going on there now that it's under new ownership. Hit the distillery also. Such a great vibe! Service is always 10/10 and they will make great suggestions. At the tasting room, have any of the sparkling, white cab, viogier, Syrah... or pretty much anything! At the distillery, the crème brûlée espresso martini is a 10/10! read more

Such an amazing experience! From our hostess Sarah, to the amazing server, Claire, such a great time was had. The food was amazing. The Mimosa Flight, Sangria Flight, Red Wine Flight, & Margarita Flight were all amazing and very well presented. The ambiance was perfect for a Saturday brunch with a solo country music artist providing the soundtrack. I cannot wait to return!! read more

We recently celebrated our 25th anniversary vow renewal at Oak Mountain Winery, and it was absolutely perfect. The Cave is breathtaking, and the entire team made us feel so welcomed and cared for from start to finish. Everything was beautifully organized, making our day completely stress-free and unforgettable. We loved it so much that we returned on the Fourth of July for dinner with our dog, and once again received exceptional service. The food, wine, and atmosphere were just as amazing. A special thank you to Ashlyn and the entire staff for going above and beyond to create memories we'll cherish forever. Their kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail truly set Oak Mountain Winery apart. read more

Beautiful winery with an amazing view and I love that you were able to dine inside a cave. We got the wine tasting flight and dined there as well. I got their speciality fish dish and it was a bit salty in my opinion. The fries were good but the steak on top of it were a bit dry. Other than that, everything else was great! The vibes were amazing. read more

Oak Mountain Winery became my selection for new wineries to visit this weekend based on their previous reviews, and the photos on their website. Upon arrival, the property checked one of my requirement boxes: paved parking. I cannot tolerate parking in dirt that removes the shine on my tires and rims. After some confusion, I finally arrived at the correct tasting room for non-members and began my tasting with assistance from Eric, a fine young gentleman who offered to guide me through my journey. He provided the history of the winery and the background of the various wines I sampled. I was not fond of their white wines, but their red wines possessed character, complexity, and depth. The price of the tasting was on the high end, but I enjoyed it all the same. The property is very large, and well-maintained, and also hosts a distillery, somewhat hidden in the form of a speakeasy of sorts. Didn't partake, but intend to return in the future to sample. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and will give some thought to joining their membership. Great views atop the hill, and a mellow vibe. Thank you Eric! Great customer service. read more

Their wines are pretty good. Atmosphere is great. Lots of options to choose from between being outdoors, open space, or indoors. Pours are never skimped on which I appreciate. Great music being played. It's usually laid back country music which is just so relaxing. After a few visits, I Finally got a chance to try their cocktails and check out their distillery. Cooper was amazing. Great flavors and cool vibe. Not a bad spot and I'm definitely coming back here! read more

I came here with my sister, mom, and son for brunch. My mom is a handicap placard holder and unfortunately all the handicap parking spots were taken. Ezra was so helpful and found us a spot upfront. His helpful gesture set the tone for the rest of our visit which was a pleasant experience. Keanu was friendly and patient with us as we moved from the outside to the cave. The food and drinks did not disappoint. I enjoy non-alcoholic drinks but decided to share the mimosa flight with my sister. It was amazing! I would definitely order it again. Make sure to have a sweater or coat available for the cave as it can get pretty cold. If I could make changes, it would be the size of the tables. Our table was extremely small. Perfect for only drinking but not for those who plan to order food. read more

Second time at Oak Mountain winery gave us two different feels. The first time we were seated in the barrel room. Romantic. Dark. Sultry. Everything exciting. Food was ok-good. So we decided to come back yesterday. Apparently there was an event inside the barrel room somewhere so we were seated in the lobby facing other couples which made us feel like we were in a lobby of a terminal. People come in and out. Food trolleys . Empty containers. Crates of glasses. Trays of dirty plates. Oh well. We made the best out of it. Until the food came. It looked like it barely survived the journey on the trolley where the sauce splashed around all over the plate as I wouldn't want to think that the server didn't wipe the plate before serving ‍. It's a pity because the sea bass was cooked perfectly. Oh well. My husband's steak came over cooked, as he ordered his steak medium rare and it came medium well. They changed it and all is well. I guess we'll come back during the week or will check if there is any events going on because we love the barrel room but will come when we could be seated there. read more

While visiting Temecula we dropped in at Oak Mountain Winery. With its picturesque views of their beautiful rolling vineyards, contemporary wine tasting rooms, and amazing subterranean dinning area. This is definitely a culinary and wine connoisseur destination. The winery has knowledgeable Sommeliers including Eric who walked us through the vineyard's blends. Each wine we tried was well balanced and harmonious, with components working together to allow the flavors and aromas to shine through. Excellence selections! We also had lunch and each dish was a culinary masterpiece that transported our tastebuds to various levels. Excellent cuisine! In conclusion, Oak Mountain Winery succeeded our expectations not only by satisfying our palates but created an impressive experience that inspired return visits or becoming members! Highly recommend!! read more

It was a beautiful evening to be at the winery. This was a s'mores evening with the kids and we were seated at a high top table with a fire pit so the children could toast their marshmallows. First we ordered chimichurri fries and truffle gnocchi along with fries for the kiddos. The gnocchi was delicious and rich, full of flavor. The chimichurri fries were just as tasty as always. We ordered tiramisu bread pudding, I was disappointed, the bread pudding was toasted and burnt, I had to use a knife to cut through it. Needless to say I didn't finish it, but the ice cream and sauce were very good. The s'mores were fun and great! The kids really enjoyed themselves. Service was superb and the wines are very nice. I'm sure we will be back soon. Thanks for a lovely evening. read more

We did the cave wine tour at Oak Mountain winery and had a fantastic time. Our tour guide Judy struck a perfect balance of educating us on the winery itself while still keeping the atmosphere light and humorous. You get to sample a variety of their wines and are even given a meat and cheese board to compliment the flavors of the wine. We also spent some time drinking in their outdoor seating areas and distillery. The distillery was quite the experiences for the senses and their bartenders live up to their title of mixologists. Drinks will be a bit more expensive here ranging from 22-25 dollars, but the price is more than justified as some are customized to your exact desired taste profile. My server Jackie even went the extra mile and had bartenders slightly amend my drink to ensure it was the exact flavor profile I wanted. I'd reccomend this winery to anyone who is in the area! read more

Loveeedddd this place! Originally we were coming to eat at the cave but then we hit the little speakeasy and were so happy we did. They had some similar items on the menu to the cave. The place was a vibbeeeee! Best food was the chimichurri steak fries! The chimichurri sauce was to die for! After we stopped into their "club" not sure if that is what it's called but they had a dj playing music and a huge dance floor. It was super quiet as it was early but we busted some moves then headed home for the night! Great time and next time would love to try the actual restaurant! read more

5 Stars FOR SURE!! I am thoroughly impressed with the service, the wine tour, our host, the well-maintained grounds and interior, the cleanliness of the wine area, restaurant, land, restrooms and seating areas. Everything is meticulously cared for and it shows! There is definite pride in their property/winery. The wine tasting tour had generous pours which included whites in the beginning and reds towards the end of the tour, a lovely host and a cute charcuterie board that displayed pecans, a few cheese varieties, pecans, dates and crackers. It was perfect for one person. We also dined here as well and tried the lobster plate and salmon plate. They were both very good I think, but to be honest, I was super tipsy and don't remember much of it. lol I took my mom here for her birthday and we had so much fun. I highly recommend stopping in if you want to go wine tasting. read more

Really did not have a great experience here!!! It took us forever to get help and food took very long ! The food came out cold and it was a disappointment. We tried some wines and it was decent. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich and it was a 2/5 since it was cold so it messed up the taste. Fortunately, my roy rogers was very good! The cave room is nice but it's very cold inside and more for a date night! I feel the outside seating is live and more beautiful ambiance. I am happy I gave this Winery a try, but I am not sure if I will come back. -Marshay D. read more

Wanted a summer getaway so my boyfriend and I decided to spend a couple days in Temecula. We arrived on a early Wednesday afternoon and our first stop was Oak Mountain Winery. It was a beautiful winery with mountain and vineyard views. We did the wine tour through Groupon (half off for two) and I am so glad we booked a tour here. James was our tour guide. He was very personable, hilarious, and knows his history on wine and Temecula. I have been on wine tours before and never laughed this hard from our guide (and this was before our first tasting!). The tour included six tastings along with a meat and cheese charcuterie board. They had sage derby cheese which is one of my favorites and the chocolate paired well with the red wine. Towards the end of our wine tour, James offered to take pictures which I was happy because my boyfriend wouldn't have taken pictures if he didn't lol. Overall, JAMES will be the reason why we come back. I definitely would book another tour with him! read more

The Red Sangria was delicious and the Syrah, moscato wine a hit with the guests! Ashlyn was amazing, she was very helpful throughout the planning and last minute changes. Oak Mountain is one of my favorite wineries. The staff was wonderful throughout our event. Stress free because they provide everything. We all had an amazing time. read more

I can't believe I haven't written a review yet for Oak Mountain! Always a lovely time having lunch with family and friends at The Cave Restaurant. A few weekends ago, we invited a group of our friends to join us for lunch here and to say they enjoyed the entire experience was a vast understatement. The sweet relief of the temperature control restaurant during a blazing hot summer heat was welcome to all. From the time that they sat down and ooh'ed and awe'd at the intimate table set up for us amongst barrels of wine, to admiring the little wine tree with tastings of red and white then indulging in delectable food and dessert, it was nothing short of perfect. What we had: A few of us had ordered the chimichurri fries which were a big hit: Seasoned fries, grilled tri-tip, chimichurri, cilantro and queso fresco. Yum. Oak Mountain Charcuterie: An assortment of artisan cheese, meats, fig jam, fruits and nuts. Always a crowd pleaser. Cave Burger: Beef & Brisket Patty, lettuce, tomato, carmelized onions, bacon, garlic aioli and cheese on a brioche bun: we had ordered it medium well and it was cooked to perfection. Pepperoni Flat Bread: the balance between the sweet of hot honey and pepperoni tickled the taste buds. Seared Ahi and Green Bean Salad: our vegan pal enjoyed this and scarfed it down in record time. Ribeye with a side of lobster: one of our couple friends said how delicious this was and filled the two of them up plenty. Desserts: We ordered all of them to share: The Tiramisu Bread Pudding was my favorite; a warm, hefty slice of bread pudding topped with a tiramisu glaze and vanilla ice cream. Good Lord it was decadent! I shall be getting that again next time. Coconut Creme Brulee: Creme Brulee with toasted coconut flakes...nice and light. Cave Trio: little cups off oreo/coffee and lemon custard mouse. This was tasty Churro Cheesecake: one of the girls absolutely loved this one: cheesecake wrapped in a tortilla, dusted with cinnamon/sugar, topped with vanilla ice cream. We have frequented about 12 wineries in the Temecula area and Oak Mountain easily lands in our top 3. Thank you so much for the memorable experience! 5 glorious stars. read more

Such a beautiful spot in Temecula! Has the most charming atmosphere and the views are beautiful. Went to the distillery (reservations recommended) and had appetizers and cocktails. Then sat outside to enjoy some bottles of red and white. The wine is delicious, and it was the perfect spot to relax, and celebrate with our friends and family. Definitely recommend. read more

For $38 we thought the charcuterie was a bit small. And there were chunks of cheese with huge pieces of rind on them that were inedible. The service was just ok. The views are beautiful and their wine was great. Overall, this winery was more expensive than others around ($17/glass of bubbly). Dogs allowed on patio. read more

We came here yesterday for lunch after tasting at our favorite winery. It was a hot day, so everyone was getting seated inside. Super cute set up with walls of barrels used to divide each of the tables. The coolness of the cave was definitely nice. There was a live musician or music playing and the cave carried the acoustics. We had to leave headphones on our son because he did not like the loud music. It took a while for our waiter to get to us and a while for the food, make sure to give it time. I think it was about 15-20 min each. We ended up ordering the fried chicken and cave burger with chimchurri fries. Food overall was good. It was a neat experience to eat in a cave. But may not be good for kiddos who are sensitive to louder sounds. read more

Had an amazing tour with James! He gave us an outstanding amount of history and information on not only the wine but the land on which the wine originates! After our tour we sat down and had dinner inside the cellar (cave), where we enjoyed the tri tip sandwich and the prosciutto sandwich. Both were out standing! Highly recommend the upgrade to the truffle fries! Really enjoyed the dinner seating, placed in between the barrels, very romantic and provided a level of comfort that you just don't find now-a-days! read more

After visiting several other wineries with restaurants, now returning for subsequent visits to Oak Mountain, it deserves a boost to four stars. Their wines continue to greatly please our non-professional palates, their food earns four+ stars - after dining at a few other competing wineries... Oak Mountain's ambiance is comparatively remarkable, referring to larger more established entities in the Temecula Valley. Wine tasting room is very busy at times- certainly tolerable. Go early if you can, overall a very good experience! read more

My husband and I had such a great experience here! We did the wine cave tour and enjoyed a delicious charcuterie board, which made the experience even better.

You can tell he really enjoys what he does, and it made our visit that much more special. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting! read more

Oak Mountain Winery - Wineries Near Me - Temecula, California

Perched on a sunlit Temecula hillside, Oak Mountain Winery offers more than sweeping vineyard views--it delivers a polished wine-and-dine experience that feels both welcoming and quietly refined. The winery's cave restaurant strikes a balance between rustic charm and comfort: barrels form intimate alcoves for conversation, while attentive staff--Judy guiding tastings, Tana delivering dishes with practiced ease--keep service personal yet unhurried. Prices land in the $18 to $140 range, with portions generous enough to satisfy after a day of wine touring. On the plate Calamari steak strips arrive golden and tender, their meaty bite complemented by roasted chili and red bell peppers. Three dipping sauces--spicy, sweet, and creamy--invite alternating tastes without masking the seafood's clean flavor. 14 oz rib-eye (well-done) is juicy despite the doneness, paired with silky mashed potatoes and a summer vegetable medley. Peppers, mushrooms, broccolini, and purple onions keep a fresh crunch, adding color and balance. Cave Trio dessert--lemon, coffee, and Oreo mousses--shows off a whipped, velvety texture and assertive flavors. Served in parfait form, each portion is ample enough to share, though you'll want every spoonful yourself. Service & pacing Wine flights and dishes flow at a leisurely pace, matching the property's slow-living ethos. Staff handle member perks, dietary needs, and wine pairing suggestions with ease. Where it excels Well-prepared classics executed with care, generous hospitality, and a singular cave setting. Bottom line: A scenic, unpretentious destination where wine and food both shine. Best enjoyed on a sunny afternoon, ideally with a membership in your pocket. read more

We came up after looking them up online. Was excited to checkout The Distillery, sadly it is not open midweek. We ate lunch here, highly recommended the tri-tip sandwich. I upgraded to the truffle fries, but did not eat them, the truffle was off a bit. They offered a cheesy bread appetizer (off menu) that was incredible! We also had the red flight, I didn't find one that I loved, but the presentation was very nice. Service was great and the views impeccable! read more

I had purchased a Groupon for someone for Christmas and we decided to go out on a Saturday and make an afternoon of it. The tour was nice and there is a lot of history to learn about the winery. The space itself it beautiful, great views of the surrounding area and tons of seating outside. There are a few spaces from a members space (which is perfect for parties), outdoor seating with a sort of pop up mobile wine/beer truck, inside wine tasting, restaurant, and even a speakeasy of sorts. The coolest part we felt was the cave. There is some seating inside for dining in between the wine barrels and it is nice and cool and just an overall cool experience and space. We received a wine taste of choice upon arrival (sparkling pineapple coconut was my favorite) and from there had reserved seating with a mountain view where we got some history and white wine tastings. We then moved into the cave for a brief history and tour to a private dining room where we were greeted with a small bites plate (fruit, chocolate, cheese, and meat) and red wine tastings. Our guide was very nice. The tour was about 10 people so it was small and perfect. It was quite bust for a random Saturday in May. We bought a bottle of wine which fell through the paper bag on the way out to the car. They gave us 20% off another bottle and placed in a better bag (which I feel sturdier bags should be used to begin with). Overall we had a nice time and would like to go back to try the food and speakeasy. They have a complimentary valet but there was plenty of parking so I don't really think there is a need to valet. read more

YELP SHORT ANSWER: Yes, go for the experience not necessarily the wine. LOCATION: Easy to find in Temecula which is So Cal close to everything. FACILITY: Nice and expanding. This is a popular location to visit for tours and the constant buildout shows owners care. Outdoor space is shaping up to be incredible. MENU: While we did not eat, the menu looks good. We thought there would be a bit more food on our tour, if we did it again we'd plan a meal in the restaurant before or after the tour. They should give some incentive to dine connected to the meal. FOOD PREP: Looked good. FOOD QUALITY: Have to assume it is good, did not see any unhappy customers. LIBATIONS: Wine, lots of wine on our tour. As I try not to drink I did my best and did not see spitting options. To be honest none of the wines seemed special but for what it is and where it is they were fine and this is not an easy business. We did not come there to experience finding the best wine, we came for the experience and were not disappointed one bit. WAITSTAFF: Wow, our tour host was incredible, she was entertaining and informed even when she was soft selling. I lived near the Napa giants and have visited some of Europes best so not fair to compare and I do not think they are saying otherwise. It was nice not to find the stuck up wine snobs here. OVERALL VALUE: Excellent, where can you visit where everyone is happy? Yes we all enjoyed some wine and laughs and met some super nice people. TIP: Do the Tour, I believe there is a Groupon deal at times that makes it about $50 per person, well worth it. Plan a meal but you need to make reservations for both. Give them a call for Bed and Breakfast and neighboring vineyards to visit, they are ever helpful. We will return. read more

Very romantic intimate setting. You actually eat hundreds of feet inside of a cave in the side of a mountain at the winery. My wife liked her halibut. My chicken sandwich and chili were ok. Service was slow, which I didn't understand because your server is not the one who brings your food out to you. Your food is brought out by other staff working in the kitchen. Food was brought out quickly, but everything else took a long time (drinks, check). read more
