Trail Three · The Back Roads

Peltzer Family Cellars

A working farm with a crush-house tasting room — rustic tin, string lights, and a pumpkin patch takeover every fall.

Almost every tasting room in the valley is, practically speaking, adults-only, which quietly rules Temecula out for a lot of visiting families. This one does not have that problem. In autumn it stops being a winery visit at all and becomes a full family day out that happens to have wine for the grown-ups.
