| Founded
in 2000, Falkner Winery is built on the peak of a
1,500-foot hill and offers visitors amazing views
of the Temecula Valley from its pastoral front porch
and its rolling grassy lawn.
The wood-sided, vine-covered building houses a diverse
tasting room with wooden beams and a long tasting
counter and gift shop, while the picturesque grounds
with sculptures, picnic areas and an outside tasting
bar, features the Pinnacle Restaurant, reception and
banquet facilities, and an art gallery.
Falkner winery produces estate-grown Cabernet Sauvignon,
Sauvignon Blanc, White Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot,
Sangiovese, Viognier and some proprietary blends,
including a “Super Tuscan” blend of four
different grapes. Chardonnay, Riesling, Syrah, and
port are also produced. Try their semi-sweet “Luscious
Lips” red wine or the “Sweet Loretta”
for a memorable dessert.
The wines are made with the intent of providing full
fruit flavors with a soft, clean finish. Most of their
red wines age at least three years before their release,
allowing tannins to soften and subtle flavors to develop.
