History
Temecula Valley’s viticulture dates to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with modern commercial revival in the 1960s–70s that established today’s tasting-room culture.
Conservation
Many local wineries use dry-farming, water-efficient irrigation and focused habitat corridors to reduce run-off; visitors are encouraged to leave no trace and recycle glass when possible.

Bring government-issued ID
