Very kind and friendly staff. My grandfather took a spill and they were very attentive as were the independent sellers out front. Wonderful experience overall.
It’s low key and fun! Always a band or DJ on the weekends. They just added more to there food menu. That’s a huge plus. There best know for Champagne especially the peach mango.
Great winery! Check out the sourdough bread with a wheel of brie baked inside. So good with a flight of wine!!
New Owners, have to give them credit - they are making some improvements. However, they have live entertainment which is located too close to seated guests - WAY TO LOUD!!! The new Owners are taking away the lovely ambiance & class & turning it into a Redneck environment. Sad to see this happening! People / staff are great - please take this constructive criticism to heart.
2nd time coming to Maurice Carrie Winery and again they never disappoint! Theyre the only winery that welcomed our big group. They even brought in a DJ for us, who was amazing by the way! Definitely recommend going there! The service was excellent and food was amazing. Love this place!!
Straight forwardRed Wine: cab sauvignon === > very smooth and tasteful ... other option would have been cab franc.White Wine: Bartender recommended sparkling mangoBread bowl === > As always very delicious and hot to enjoy with a glass of wine.Entertainment === > Live band .. very nice to hang out with the family and they have vendors there to do a little shopping.Ladies=== > we love our heels and yes there are areas with pavement but not recommend to walk on the grass to avoid any ankle injuries.
LOVE THE BREAD!!! Best atmosphere for hanging out and tasting wine! Live music always a plus, we just love it here!!
It was nice place to chill. Wines are also reasonable.
We used to love going here, but it has really gone downhill. No longer is it a family owned quaint winery. It has become much more like a dive bar....and not in a good way. They used to take goid care of their wine club members, but no longer. Sad to see an old friend go.
Wine flights and incredible Brie baked bread. What more could you need?
Service is amazing. Great ambiance. Wine is the best. Suited for families with young children. Love, love, love!
This place is awesome! And the band was phenomenal!!! You have to come here!!
Lovely. Good food, good wine. Nice grounds.
Very accommodating great music and the house wine is tasty
Very clean great attitude Very friendly followed all the rules
Beautiful winery with lots of outdoor seating. Very family friendly!Make sure you try the brie-stuffed sourdough! Its delicious and easily shareable for up to 6 people. A great compliment to the delicious and affordable wine tasting! (You even get to keep the glass)!
Great testing wine and the sourdough bread with bre is amazing!! Good place to go and hang out with the family.
Great wines, wonderful staff.
Awesome wine. Want great service ask for Rachel the event planner or Chris. Thank you both. Very pleased.
You will also love their garlic/ brie sourdough round, incredible.
Nice scenery and decent wines. They also sell a sourdough round filled with bake brie that is amazing!
Best cheese bread ever!
We bought a bottle of the sovereign blanc it was ok. The brie bowl was great.
The brie is the bomb! Bring an apple, slice there and enjoy with the brie and a nice glass of white wine. Perfect to start or end your wine tasting day.
Nothing bad to say about this place. Friendly staff that is knowledgeable, but still down to earth. Delicious wines, good selection. Great environment. If you come on the right day, they have a little local swap meet ish thing and a DJ. Was not overwhelming, but an energetic and fun place. The Brie bread was absolutely delicious. . . A mouthgasm. Large sourdough loaf with an entire wheel of Brie cheese baked inside, seasoned well. It should be a criminal offence to come to Temecula and NOT purchase one of these Brie breads.
Great sourdough and cheese
This review is specifically for their brie bread. This is a great snack for wine tasting. Be prepared for up to 30 minutes for a loaf. We frequently stop here for a loaf as we are heading to other wineries. The wine itself, I have not tried for years so I cannot make a comment about it. This is a nice looking tasting room with a friendly staff. I believe this is the oldest winery in the Temecula Valley.
Great wine and bread love the scenery
Horrible Horrible Horrible, most people come here after they are already lit from other wineries and haven’t noticed the stench or cared. But I must say that the new ownership has put all patrons in harms way by refusing to fix their septic tank by ignoring it and trying to wait for the city services being brought up Rancho Cal as explained by a staff member. This has resulted in severe health hazards being imposed upon anyone visiting or working here. The restroom restrictions and horrific conditions being disguised as remodeling as well as the fact the grounds are saturated in fecal matter causing airborne contamination to be consumed by anyone on site. Finally the Health Department was summoned and delivered a writ of cease and desist until repairs are made and approved as I was notified today. They however choose to pretend to be fixing it and continue to subject the general public to its hazards. I tried calling today to discuss the ailments I have suffered and the gal who answered played the pretend to be unaware card yet she was the same person on duty when I complained 3 weeks ago. Warning do not go here at all until corrected as I believe they are in denial mode but that they are truly 100% aware of the problem and health concerns. Shame on MC owners and staff. Let’s hope for your sake any potential related illnesses don’t end up with anyone in the hospital simply because they don’t care about anything but revenue. I recommend if you have visited as recently as 4 weeks that you have yourself or loved ones especially elderly or children checked out by a physician and follow up with the Health Department as I plan on doing ASAP.JF
Bad red wine. The sparkling was ok.We bought few bottles and the stuff made a fuss about giving us a paper box even though we were not members. Go figure.
This white Sangria is the business I hope it stays on the menu
Stop by this place along the day during a wine tasting trip, friendly staff quiet and inviting. Was about to purchase a bottle and they were offering tastings of other selections similar to what was being purchased. I thought that was nice. Great place and atmosphere. 2nd visit on July 3 2020. Beautiful day before 4th of July Maurice Carrie vineyard was the third stop today provided a nice atmosphere even during these difficult times. Masked precautions are carried out which was good to see. Ordered the bread and cheese bowl which hit the spot after all that wine tasting we did. Enjoyed the time I spent there with my girl, hope to visit again.
I cant believe someone delete my one star review for their bad service!
Very friendly and helpful. We went on a Monday so not as busy as weekend.. try the bread! Its worth the price and can be shared by 3/4/5 people.
My cousin visiting me from China, I brought her here. I ordered $15 wine tasting and with $4 tip for her. A staff recommended 2, she ordered 2 herself. When shes ready for the 5th, the staff told her she already finished her tasting card. When we tried to remind her she only did 4 out of five, the staff said thats already the 6th one she gave to her. And then she said, you know what, Im not gonna argue with you, and she popped open a bottle of sparkling wine and poured into her glass despite she ordered something else and said, heres your 6th! With very rude tone. My cousin still thanked her after. This is why Im writing it on here. Very disappointing visit.
The wine and champagne is great but the thing that seals the deal as a must for me is the fresh baked sourdough bread thats cut in half filled with a disc of brie cheese and garlic butter and toasted. That was amazing, you get crunchy salty buttery garlic bread bread with war gooey cheese..
2nd Stop on our Self navigated Wine tourWe stopped just for BRIE Bread with Cheese, YUMMMMMMM.The Baked Brie bread with Garlic flavor is heaven, this is third time here and we never missed Brie bread from here. It is Gigantic, 3 can share easily. It is $16.50 for one bread, but worth it.How to eat Brie Bread:1. The Top part is cut and placed on the top, open it and treat it like chips2. The Bottom part is like a bowl filled with Cheese.3. Once you finish the top part and use Cheese as dip, cut the botoom part like Pizza strips and enjoy the Garlic flavor.I am Drooling .....And washed it off with Petit Syrah
Awesomeeeee customer service, Laurie is my favorite and the wines are great I am actually obsessed with one of there sparkling wines please try Peach Mango.
Christa was super nice and very knowledgeable. Ive been to plenty of wine tasting and never had such amazing customer service like I did today. Definitely coming back soon. Thank you Christa for making our vacation that much special.
Family Sunday picnic. Love to sit out on the lawn, beautiful breeze, good wine and the HOT BRIE BOWL, which is amazing. Grandchildren ran around and we all enjoyed the wine. Staff is wonderful and very knowledgeable of the wines and the surrounding area. It was nice to browse the vendors and picked up some pretty jewelry and local honey.
The wine was OK but the service is laughable and Im being polite. The tasting experience can make or break it for your wine and this one is broken. They werent Wine servers they were two Grandmas that had their filters removed. Seriously between the two senior females that were serving they couldnt combine efforts to make up one server and this is coming from myself, a senior.We had two for one coupons for the tastings but (for inventory) each couple shares a punch card which didnt confuse us but the two servers were lost and we spent more time explaining to them who had what or how many then they spent trying to sell their wine. If the tasting room was crowded I would cut some slack but there were 11 people in the place and we were five of them, now I know why.
A perfect place to enjoy a beautiful afternoon, sipping delicious wines.
Art show and wine!
One of my favorite wineries
Excellent staff ... and wine to match! Really knew their wine! One of best wine tastings we have experienced
Great place to sample wine. You get to keep the wine glass. They also had a small atreet fair going on.
The older lady at the first counter running the register sucked. We almost left because of her but Christa at the tasting area was AMAZING! She was so knowlegable...we could have talked to her for hours. If she ran that place it would be hopping. The wine was to die for other than that.
Love the Brie bowls and the arts booths but the music doesn’t fit the winery unless you’re into 80’s hip hop! Ditch the dj and play some soft jazz or acoustic guitar. Not sure we’ll be back. Don’t want to get my ears blasted out!
I love this place and their wine/s but the pours today were tiny!
The wonderful woman, who I believe said shes been there for 20: years kept over-pouring! :)
Fantastic selection of various infused sparkling wines. Their Cuvee is still my favorite. Of course the baked brie is a must.
Great winery! Just enjoyed some sourdough bread with baked brie inside along with some great wine. We received wonderful service from Christina who is super sweet and a real treasure.
Great wine and great people
It is the best way to start the rounds in Temecula. Staff is super friendly and guide you not just through wine (with extra pouring BTW) but also with all places around. Excellent place over all.
Good times and nice people. I will visit again.
Good service! Me and my friend had a nice time!
The best white wines in Temecal Valley! Christa is the best server ever! We love this winery!
They werent even open yet, but took care of me anyway. Thats what I call great service.
The bartender here is so nice. They make you feel like family. The wine is the best! I have been to over 50 wineries all over the east coast and this one, in the West coast, is by far the best. Nothing in the east coast compares to this!
Best white wines in the Valley! Christa makes sure your visit is the best!
Great experience. Lovely lady that has worked there 19 years...good time!!
The wines were very good and the staff were very helpful and friendly I would recommend this winery to anyone
The hospitality was amazing!!! I love the variety of the whites and the cab franc was smooth!!! My new favorite winery!
We stopped in for a brunch/lunch and the burgers were awesome. We had tuna on sour dough which was equally good and the sandwiches come with potato salad which was fine. The view is very pretty and the service was outstanding. Our server made sure we had our take out order at the end of the meal and the hot food came steaming hot and the potato salad crisp and cold, the way it should be..same for the sandwiches.
Great wine and terrific sourdough bread!
Always love my visits to this place. The vendor booths on weekends add to the fun.
Just went there on Saturday March 17th around 200pm. The lady selling the bread out front was super nice. However the rest of the employees were rude. We bought 2 bottles of wine and paid to have them opened. When we went to the bar to have them opened, 3 employees were busy having a conversation. I said to the younger gentlemen hello we paid to have the bottles opened. He didnt even look at me or acknowledge us. He looked at the bottles and saw that they has a red tape on them. So he grabbed them and started opening them, while he continued on with his conversation with the two female employees. After he finished my sister and I said thank you. He contined on with his conversation and once again didnt acknowledge us or even look at us. It was honestly the rudest experience that I have ever had. We were trying to say stuff to them and it was like we werent even there. I can see why the place was dead if this is the way the staff treats the guests. I wont ever come back again.
The delicious bread. But the bartenders were not friendly at all. It almost feels like we were bothering them.
Wonderful experience. Jean was welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable about the wines. The Sourdough with Brie was a perfect pairing!
Everyone there are super nice, especially Christa!!
The brie was delicious- as promised- but the lady pouring our tastings was suuuuuper slow. (reminiscent of the sloth in zoo-topia) We were through one tasting by the time our brie was ready (at least 15 minutes in) there were only 2 other people there at the time, but we were clearly not a priority. She advised us the brie is important to eat warm so we should go outside and eat it now. We all chose to take a triple pour of something and go enjoy it outside. Id have liked to taste a few more wines there, but what we had was pretty good. So Its difficult for me to give an accurate rating on the wine being as I only tasted 2 or 3. The experience was a little hampered by the oddness of the lady pouring.
High value readonably priced. My wife loved the decor. I was impressed by the service.
LOVED this winery! Recently went with a party bus of people to Temecula to visit 3 wineries and this one was our favorite. We stopped here last, and had been drinking for 3 hours or so now, and the excellent and friendly staff at Maurice Carrie Winery welcomed our wine soaked happiness right in. We sang Happy Birthday to our friend as a crowd (21 of us!) and the staff and others visiting joined right in. They then followed up with a special decorated wine glass for him. I shared my tasters with my boyfriend and the excellent staff gave us a little extra on our pours because of that. They let me try sips of wines when I was interested in tasting similar flavors before committing to a pour. We also brought some fresh, warm, house baked Sourdough for $3.99. A great pairing with the wines.
We visit them often. Its always a great experience and they have wonderful wines
Very nice place. Good wine
Maurice Carrie Vineyard and Winery Amazing staff, fantastic variety of wine selections and fresh hot sourdough bread Loved this winery, very helpful & professional.
Love the sourdough garlic bread w/ melted brie and the wine. Beautiful place to hang out with friends!
Great place to spend with the family while drinking a cup of wine, great friendly staff, delicious baked brie sourdough bread
Great place to visit to get to know your inner spirit...The Brie Bread is worth the drive any time...
This was the second stop out of four on our wine tour for my sisters bachelorette party. The service was excellent and the Peach Mango Wine was divine. I wish we could have just stayed at this place all way.
Their sourdough bread with Brie is so good! I baked mine at home and my family devoured it immediately :) it was around $16...cheaper if you eat it there but they were all sold out. You have to call at least 15min in advance if you want them to bake it for you.baking tip: chop up the cheese before putting it in the oven with the bread so the cheese will melt all the way.
Their wine isnt very good, but the brie bread bowls are amazing.
Very good service and great food
Love this winery its smaller and friendly. With bands. They need to open a little earlier
Awesome baked brie inside sourdough bread with a bottle of Mar uric Carrie Chardonney with family is the way to go!
Awesome wine. Fair prices. On weekend they have vendors selling various items. Makes for a nice change.
Their wine and bread are wonderful.
Been going here for about 5 years. Wine is very good for my taste, staff is very wonderful, the brie bread is the best I have ever had.
The sourdough bread is fantastic. Its definitely worth a stop.
The sour dough bread is awesome, good music on the weekend and the little shops in the front.
Favorite late harvest wine Summers End Chardonnay
Great wine favorite is Moscato
