Such a lovely place! The wine was utterly amazing! Fantastic service! Got to taste several different styles of wines and even ended up buying a few bottles to share with the family. We are not wine people, so it was very helpful to have a server who explained the ins and outs of the wines and how to get the best flavor as we tasted things. If you get Josh, he is awesome!

This was the first time for me and my hubby here at the Callaway Vineyard & Winery. We really enjoyed ourselves & had a wonderful time! We started off by ordering a bottle of the Sparkling Rose wine which was very fruity and tasty! My husband and our daughter ordered the Ribeye steak with steamed veggies which was phenomenal!!I ended up ordering the half crispy chicken & risotto.I have to say it was very tasty!! I couldnt believe that there was so much chicken on that plate! You could literally feed 3 people off of that half chicken!! Lol..It was all definitely worth it! The food, wine & atmosphere were so comfortable!That being said, we ended up going when there was hardly anyone there. Which was right before the dinner rush which was nice because we had our pic of any table.Also they had taken all of the necessary precautions for us too have a safe meal and experience! We not only recommend that you try Callaway Winery & Vineyard at least once if your in the area. We also suggest that you try their Sparkling Rose wine. We think youll love it! Lol. We sure did!

Lovely lunch as tasting! Ashley was absolutely terrific and was very knowledgeable. Their wines are mature and have a full bodied flavor if you live in the area and havent been by in a while. Great plan for membership if youre interested. Looking forward to entertainment once covid restrictions lift. Would recommend to friends and family for a great relaxed experience.

After feeling housebound for months, we decided to finally venture out on a recent Sunday afternoon to the wineries right down the street from us on Rancho California Road! We pulled into Callaway with the idea of just sitting somewhere to enjoy wine/views. The place is huge and we walked around to check out the many sitting areas. Although the parking lot was packed, none of the areas seemed crowded at all and there were no lines inside for ordering, either. We opted for a bottle of 2018 Sauvignon Blanc and sat on the lower level of the patio which was just beautiful. Grapevines wrapped around the railing flanking our table and with the filtered sunshine, it made for a gorgeous photo-op! The wine was refreshing, not stellar, but quite good. We struck up a conversation at the table next to us (plenty of social distance!) with a delightful couple, also new to the area, doing exactly what we were! We look forward to returning to enjoy an actual tour & tasting, as well as to try out the restaurant.

A very beautiful scenery .We had some ceviche. Sorry I did not take the picture too quick to eat it very delicious. The salmon was delicious also the curry chicken cant go wrong so far with the food and the wine was the chardonnay buttery

We enjoyed a break at Calloway with another couple. A little closer to normalcy.You walk in with your mask, hand sanitize, get your drink then find your seat. Once you find your seat you can remove your mask and enjoy your wine.You cannot do wine tasting at this time.

We explored Callaway winery first with a tour. Cole was the host and I found the tour very informative and interesting; he focused on the history of the vineyard and the aging in barrels. We would have enjoyed more details on the production techniques, but I guess this is common to all vineyards.We enjoyed tasting a white wine directly from the giant stainless steel tank and some time in the room full of oak barrels.The wine selection at Callaway is large and there is something to please anyone. Their spot is probably the best in Temecula, with a nice view around.

The wines are fair, not the best that Temecula has to offer but above average. They have a restaurant there and the food is very good. I definitely recommend the restaurant as a place to eat. I had the pork belly appetizer and that was very delicious.

We went there today and what a beautiful vineyard. I am surprised their wines are not cold enough. Waiter came up and asked how everything was. When we told him that our wine was not chilled bough, he came back with, “well it’s 100 degrees out.” Really? Aren’t white wines stored in a refrigerator?? I did night like the taste of the flights we ordered. Maybe would have been better if they were cold

I wasn’t impressed with the wine but we had several tastings prior. But the atmosphere here was fun and fit many groups! It’s also a perfect place to end your wine tasting day with great views of the sunset and the cityscape. I will be back to give the wine a 2nd run

Had a very good couples experience in this vineyard. Tried the tasting and tour. The tour was a neat experience with a semi-knowledgeable tour guide. The wine tasting was also good although no wine stood out to me. The restaurant was delicious. The tartar, fish tacos, and hummus with bread were good options.

Well deserved chill day before 4th of July Callaway provided that atmosphere even during the covid times. Masked up as usual as they enforced the mask precautions before entering their establishment. Enjoyed the time I spent there with my girl, definitely will visit again.

Worst wine tasting ever. Was ignored and when we did get someone to acknowledge us it was without any explanation of the wine - just poured our choice and went back to flirting with the young girls. Such a disappointment and after the second pour I should have asked for our money back. Not an enjoyable experience at all. Negative five stars if I could.

Golfers will be pleased to know this business was originally owned by the same Callaway family that created the Callaway sports brand. In fact the sale of this business was what funded it. Wines of note include the members zin as well as the 17 late harvest cabernet dessertwine

This is probably the most beautiful place I have visited in California. The winery offers an overtaking view of the vineyard, hills, mountains from the tasting bar. This place is very clean, new, modern. There is outside patio seating. My wife and I enjoyed the “on the sweet side” selections. The servers were very friendly and personable. We took a Rose’ home. We even joined the wine club. We will definitely be back.

For a $20 wine tasting I was expecting much more than a nice view of the vineyard. The wine reminded me of the one time I fell asleep with my mouth open and the ceiling fan on. BONE dry.

I purchase a club membership and used for the first time, staff wasnt very friendly specially because we were told to keep the voice down even if we were just having a simple conversation with the family not being loud it all, but because they were having a wedding down in grass area we were told to keep the voice down, if I pay for something I dont feel like someone can just come up and told me what to do specially if I am not doing anything wrong, definitely not going back anymore and at soon is I get chance I will cancel the membership!Not recommend this place!

Coming all the way from Tampa, Florida this was definitely an amazing experience. We had lunch and did the wine tasting and Jake who helped us was even better. It nice to see someone actually love their job and what they do! He is the one who really set the experience to a new level. Shout out to Jake thank you for being so great and giving us a time to remember. Wel will definitely be back to visit again and will be asking for you!

We were lucky enough to have our group of 4 tasting and tour at 11am to ourselves with Brad as our tour guide. Tour guides can make or break an experience and Brad had exceeded our expectations. Very knowledgeable with all our questions and served us passionately. 100% recommended and very impressed with our overall experience.

Review №84

Service was not the best, but OK. The hanger steak was ordered medium, but most was charred and over cooked, potato wedges was so dry and stiff, not tender inside. The Manila clams were supposed to be steamed, but they too were overcooked and chewy. About 30% of them were empty, so whats with that? The shrimp pasta was cold and only two shrimp, whats happening here? Now for the dessert, creme brulee was good, the bread pudding was completely charred on the bottom/burnt about 1/4 of the bottom, they hid it by pouring chocolate sauce all over it so that you wont notice it until you are chewing charcoal and its too late. Its presentation was horrible. The place was not busy, so I cant give them the excuse that they were overloaded with customers. It just seemed that the cooks didnt care or just need some time to get their priorities in order. I paid about $200 for this meal and was it worth it? Not for the food or wine. By the way the wines paired with each dish, were totally bad matches. Sad that they have such high potential but they must be having a off day and taking it out on the food prep, because Ive read some good reviews before coming, but dont understand what happen with such simple dishes. Im not a chef, but I personally wouldnt serve a burnt dish to anyone. I would have redone it. Over cooking clams of steaks tells me that something is very off in a kitchen. Ill try them again on another day, only because a friend asked me to give another chance

Review №85

A fun experience with beautiful views of the hillside. Twenty dollars a person will get you six tastings each. The selection is more diverse than some restaurant wine lists but I definitely enjoyed their reds more. There is a restaurant on site as well, only serving lunch Monday through Thursday with a double seating on the more popular days. Worth a stop if youre interested in Temecula wine.

Review №86

Being a club member, I can say that their wines are good and the location is pretty good too; but they could get a few more seating options. Try their Winemakers Reserves. Both Reds and Whites are worth a try. Skip the restaurant if you are a vegetarian.

Purchased a wine club membership as a gift for my parents & unfortunately have not had a great experience. This is my 3rd time purchasing a holiday membership at other Temecula wineries. The others were great! Sent a beautiful card, excellent emails with exclusive events and provided great service. Ive experienced nothing issues with Callaway Temecula & would strongly suggest a different winery for your membership. The winery is beautiful, so its unfortunate. SUGGESTION: Visit for the day, but if youre considering a membership pick a different winery.

If you happen to have some free time in Orange County, highly recommend a Temecula wine tour. We hired a driver to take us around Temecula and stopped by Callaway. Callaway’s tasting room does 6 tastings for $20. We don’t really know wines that well, but the bartender helped calibrate us to a wine that we absolutely loved within 3 tastings. We ended up buying 8 bottles to ship home, the Sparkling Rose. We sat outdoors with live music and sweeping views of the hills and valleys surrounding Callaway. It was a picture perfect afternoon.

If you like reds, don’t go to Callaway! Wines are light (translucent) with a turpentine taste at the end. Horrible! Beautiful view but as with most wineries in Temecula, if it’s beautiful, it’s to cover up for the subpar wines. Stick to Doffo or Wiens.
