California is almost as well-known for its wine as it is for its beaches. The Golden State’s wine production dates back over three centuries and now the state boasts more than 4,200 unique wineries. Its diverse wine regions are spread out around the state and produce more than 100 varietals—and the results rival those from Europe.
Napa Valley, Paso Robles, and Sonoma County are big names in California wine—there are more than 200 wineries in Pasa Robles alone.
But Southern California has its own wine country, the Temecula Valley. Temecula, which has a climate similar to the Mediterranean, is home to nearly 50 fantastic wineries, each with their own story to tell and terroir to explore.
California wine country is also rich in one-of-a-kind experiences. Drink in the views on a hot air balloon, tour the terrain in a tandem sidecar or historic cable car, pedal through the pastoral landscape, or be pampered at a luxury spa.
Whether you’re looking for a girlfriends’ getaway, wining and dining, a romantic escape, or a heavenly venue for vows in the vines, California wine country has you covered with unforgettable adventures and scenic setting.

Herzog Wine Cellars: 150 Years of Tradition
With the largest portfolio of kosher wine in the world, Herzog Wine Cellars produces more than 25 varietals reflecting the diversity of California’s grape-growing regions. Paired with incredible wines, it’s the profound story of the Herzog family dating back nine generations that drives worldwide acclaim for the Herzog label. From the courts of Kaiser Franz Joseph of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, to a Europe torn by war, to the streets of New York City, to the vineyards of California and their state-of-the-art winery in Oxnard, the Herzog story is one of a family’s enduring commitment to their Jewish identity and their belief in the promise of America.
Oxnard Wine Flight
“Stray” from the norm at Oxnard’s more edgy winery Strey Cellars, specializing in Zinfandel and producing varietals from Sauvignon Blanc to Syrah. Step into a historical home at Heritage Square’s Scarlett House to enjoy Rancho Ventavo Cellars’ selection of wines inspired by wine trips around the world. Let your cup runneth over at Magnavino Cellars, an elegant event space with a Tuscan atmosphere pouring sparkling wines, creamy buttery blends and decadent reds.
Wiens Family Cellars
Nestled in the rolling hills of Temecula Valley lays Wiens Family Cellars; a hidden gem found between the commotion of Los Angeles and San Diego.
