We tasted about 8 wines and had a nice charcuterie board while at it.
The Cave is actually a restaurant as well perhaps if we ever come back to the area we might consider dining there too.

Temecula is well known for its championship golf courses, a climate perfect for serene and beautiful hot-air ballooning adventures, and award-winning wineries nestled in 3,000 acres of picturesque wine country, but that's just the beginning.

Taking a step back in time and experiencing the rich history of the Temecula Valley from its discovery to today we visited the Temecula Valley Museum.

Exhibits represent life in the Temecula Valley through time and different cultures that influenced the development of the area. Displays contain handcrafted artifacts, cultural items, ranching and farming equipment, documents, photographs, and more, Exhibits depict key stories, including the Luiseno Indians, Mission San Luis Rey period, establishment of the ranchos, and transportation influences including the stagecoach and railroads.Okumaya devam et

Sunshine Mountain Winery visit
10 Ocak, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri ⋅ ☀️ 68 °F
And so on this last incredibly gorgeous sunny afternoon we paid a visit to Sunshine Mountain Winery in San Marcos for some more wine tasting and cheese eating (OK maybe we are not as cheesed out as we thought :))

Situated on the hilltops of North San Diego, the vineyard boasts panoramic views of the city and its own unique soil that creates a perfect blend of California wilderness and European finesse.

Laurie's Sunshine Riesling.
Our Charcuteríe board and my Sunshine Cuvee Red Blend
Panoramic views
Now... of course we climbed all those steps from "way down there" and OF COURSE there is a parking lot right next to the building
Not sure if this is the owner's house but I would not mind living there
Come to think of it I wouldn't mind living in that top-of-the-mountain one either
Fruit trees of lower gaarden: Lemon, Pomegranate, Grapefruit, Avocado & tangerines.
I can't imagine how nice it must be to just go into the orchard every morning and pick a fresh lemon and avo.... YUM!Okumaya devam et
