The van eases away from the Pacific fog and the road climbs into the warm, scrub-scented hills of Temecula Valley. Vines stretch in tidy rows across gentle slopes; the driver-guide slides between winery gates and explains which blocks are showing best this vintage. For a full day—about 8½ hours—you move from hilltop tasting rooms to a stone-lined wine cave, sampling small-production bottles and watching staff coax fruit into finesse.
