The experience

You get picked up at 2:15 PM from the free public parking lot behind The Stampede in Old Town Temecula and spend the next four hours moving through three of the valley's standout wineries. At each stop, you taste wine flights, the curated selections the winery pours, and at one location you also get artisan cheeses, charcuterie and other nibbles to go with the tasting. A knowledgeable Grapeline host rides along and handles the route, so you're free to focus on the wine and the company. The tour returns to Old Town around 6:15 PM, leaving the evening open for dinner or a walk through Temecula's historic district.

This runs Friday and Saturday afternoons only. Food beyond the included cheeseboard and charcuterie is available for purchase at select stops if you want something more substantial. The vehicle is a deluxe touring coach, and the pace is easygoing: no rushing between tastings, just time to sip, talk, and take in the vineyard views. Transportation is included. You bring only yourself and a valid ID showing you're 21 or older.
