You step off the limo-party bus into golden late-afternoon light that pools across rolling vineyards and oak-dotted hills. The smell of crushed grape skins and warm earth follows as the guide leads you toward a tasting room where rows of bottles catch the light. This is Temecula’s Rancho California corridor: boutique estates, a sculpted lawn here, an amphora-lined cellar there, each stop a different slice of the valley’s winemaking scene.
