WINE
COUNTRY: Temecula
Winery Listings The
Temecula wine region is a shining example of the harmonious
marriage of wine technology and California winemaking
insight. Unlike other wine centers, Temecula is rather new,
having been "discovered" as an ideal climate and
soil zone for wine just in this past century. Misty
morning fog, leading to warm, but temperate days,
provides a long, stable growing season. Similar in many ways
to the Central Coast, Temecula wineries produce excellent Chardonnay, Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc,
and more recently Viognier, Syrah and Pinot Gris.
Temecula possesses a unique micro.climate
creating
an early growing season from March
through September. The harvest season is rarely afflicted by rains,
which contributes both to the flavor and consistency of
Temecula wines. Cool air flowing inland moderates
the daytime temperatures and helps to create a pattern of
warm, sunny days and cool nights, ideal conditions for
excellent wines.
Temecula's light, sandy loam soil, comprised mostly
of decomposing granite, permits water to drain
easily. This forces the roots to grow deeper to find water,
resulting in stronger vines and smaller grapes. ideal for highly
concentrated flavor.
Temecula wineries, although youthful in comparison to
the old-guard of California wines, use their technical skill
and unique growing conditions to make outstanding
wines. While many of the wineries use traditional barrel
aging to create classically styled wines, many showcase the
Temecula fruit,
with less focus on barrel flavors.
Temecula has become one of the fastest expanding wine
growing areas in California, and worth a special trip for a
unique treat.
