Here’s to California Wine Month in Temecula Valley

September is California Wine Month, the perfect time to see and experience the makers and mavericks who live, work, and play in Temecula Valley Southern California Wine Country. Throughout the month, guests can select from nearly 50 local wineries and enjoy onsite tastings and demonstrations, tours, live entertainment, and farm-to-table culinary experiences. Visitors can crush grapes underfoot while marveling at the sight of colorful hot air balloons floating over the vineyards.  

After a full day of touring and sipping, travelers are invited to pair their experience with a stay at one of Temecula Valley’s many resorts, hotels, or short-term rentals. Find rates and availability here: https://www.visittemeculavalley.com/hotels/
