Chris was our wine bartender and was helpful and knew what to recommend and answered all our questions. He was very knowledgeable and had a great, fun attitude and made us feel welcome. Wilson Creek has changed over the years and we will definitely be back. Definitely looking forward to becoming wine club members. Thank you Chris!

This is my favorite Temecula Winery! The atmosphere outside is casual and especially lovely when they have live music, which is often the case. Also, this is important: get a wine slushie. I was skeptical at first, too. Just get one and thank me later.

The staff was amazing! It was a super hot weekend but everyone seemed in great spirits! Theyve modified to outdoors and done a beautiful job at it! The food was Excellent!! The Yes dear chardonnay was delicious and we even tried the wine slushy... perfect for a hot day! On our 2nd day we did a sit down brunch with their Brut Sparkling wine... perfect combo! We cant wait to go back!

My husband and I live on the East coast, but were in the area back in 2015 for a wedding so we stopped by for our first visit. We went to multiple wineries, but this was by far our favorite. We enjoyed it so much I still order wine online for delivery to reminisce our wonderful trip. Wilson creek winery is my favorite wine and I’m willing to pay a large shipping fee to have it delivered. My top 3 fav: peach Bellini, almond, and the orange mimosa! Highly recommend!

If I can put no stars I would. That’s why I didn’t leave a tip. Staff was rude. Bad customer service. Served wine and sangria in plastic cup, uneven pours. Not COVID - 19 friendly at all, people were walking around with no masks. Did not check temperature at front door. There was no social distancing at all. Run down winery. Do not recommend to anyone. Many intoxicated people around the area. Staff was very unprofessional

On a drive home after errands, we opted for an impromptu turn into Wilson Creek for a first visit on a recent Monday afternoon. We were greeted by a friendly employee who did a temp check and gave us a rundown of the various areas. The Courtyard Bar & Grille offers a few small bites, wine slushies and wine by the glass. Unfortunately, they were out of most of the small bites but we were able to purchase some hummus and a bag of bagel chips inside where we ordered our wine by the glass. I opted for a glass of the 2018 Cellar Select Chardonnay and my husband tried the Cabernet-Zinfandel, both of which were great. We enjoyed our wine and nibbles a table in the courtyard which was shade sail-covered with mister fans. It was Columbus Day Monday and there were lots of people, but there was still plenty of room to spread out. Looking forward to stopping in again for a meal at the Creekside Grill and a tour when they’re doing them again.

This usee to be my favorite winery but the fact that they are not regulating and dont care about capacity quickly turned me off. It was insanely packed and no one cared about covid safety. This is not ok. They should limit capacity and actually have ppl social distance.

Beautiful grounds and set up very nice for casual get togethers with friends and family. As with most winerys, the food was less average and the wine was just okay. The wine slushy was very good. Service was just okay. The people working outside in the wine bar need to get a personality and remember what customer service is about.

I love going, Ive been a wine club member for 11 years now and have had the best time bringing my Family and Friends and meeting other members and of coarse the staff is always so pleasant, Ilsa is my favorite, she always rememberes me and my family. Ive enjoyed talking to Mr. Wilson and Rosie is always so nice too, she always thanks me for coming and says to keep coming keep bringing my friends. Its so sweet to see her walking the grounds and shell randomly stop to pick the dead flowers from the gardens.. she takes so much pride. Ive shared their sparkling wines and other wines as birthday and wedding presents. Its always a nice time. Cheers.....

Such a beautiful winery!! I can see why people get married here. Absolutely beautiful. We had a wonderful time at their amazing brunch buffet. Pastries, breads, pastas, and chocolate fountain were my favorite. They also have amazing coffee with vanilla and hazelnut syrups (sugar free too) that you can pour yourself.There were many nice places to sit outside and enjoy the view, ambience, and live music as well. The wine tasting is the only reason I’m giving this four out of five stars. I didn’t love the wine here. Maybe I just didn’t love their selections to sample, because I could have tried their sparkling moscato (wish I would have done that). All in all, I would definitely come back here!

By far some of the WORST wine I have ever had. Atmosphere was nice, but God I mean that wine was so bad Jesus would have turned it back into water! Would never recommend this place to anyone.

Came up from San Diego for a getaway with my girlfriend to a phenomenal experience. After being to more than my fair share of wineries and vineyards, Wilson Creek goes above and beyond in every sense of the phrase. Easy to find, ample parking, welcoming staff, knowledgeable taster attendants, incredible atmosphere and grounds. Easily surpassed expectations and very much well worth any wait. Chris, Ryan and Justin not only made us feel welcome but saw to it personally to make sure we were taken care of and truly part of the family. If I could rate higher I would, make sure Wilson Creek is on your list.

I have to say COVID has really changed this experience. I use to have so much fun here, tonight has showed me that even Wilson creek is capitalizing on opportunities to make up from covid closures. Id wait until this blowes over before coming back.

Scotty knew exactly what me and my friend liked drinking. Everything was good, hard to pick which bottles to buy at the end of the day. Beautiful place, social distancing atwat its finest with lots of outdoor open seating . Only thing was the restaurant was by reservation only. But luckily they had an alternative bar and snacks area that serves some food. Will definitely go back again. Their Almond champagne was amazing!

Scotty was the one who took care of our group of friends for the wine tasting, and he provided a very enjoyable and ecstatic experience, which made our time at the winery, so much better. Its a great place with people who are just as customer oriented as Scotty was, but he made a big difference.

Staff does not wear proper face coverings for Covid. Member level servers are in non CDC approved masks and not covering noses in masks that are. You need to pay attention to staff to insure they are not making people sick.

May is awesome!! She went out of her way to make our experience here unforgettable, from labeling our flight with the names of the wines to sharing her diet Pepsi with me (since I was the DD). Wilson Creek clearly hires the best, and in a post-COVID era its a safe place to go for wine (recommend the peach and the almond)

My husband and I just got married on 2/8/20, and it was INCREDIBLE! Melanie was soooooo amazing and so helpful! The wedding went smoothly and perfectly thanks to her! The venue is so beautiful, we couldnt have picked a better location for our special day! Thank you Wilson Creek staff for being beyond incredible! The food was great and we had no issues whatsoever! We are eternally grateful to Melanie and all the staff, we will be returning to Wilson Creek in the next couple months to celebrate my birthday

Beautiful grounds, very pleasant outdoor area. Perfect way to enjoy a summer afternoon. The restaurant was very good. A limited menu but well prepared and tasty. Service was very good and servers are very knowledgeable. White wines leave a lot to be desired especially if you dont care for wines on the sweeter, fruity side. The Cabernet Sauvignon however was guite good. We enjoyed our time here and plan on returning soon.

I may of shared before, in case I havent Ill do it again. I really like this place, not just for the Champagne but for their wine. I had no idea how amazing the wine tastes. Every taster I had, I liked. Yes, really. Usually only the last 1 or 2 are the winners but not here. This is my favorite place when Im in the Temecula area

I came here to celebrate my 21st Birthday as well as my parents anniversary! Our server was May and she was so funny! She made my experience so great and we had a lot of fun! She gave us many suggestions on the different types of wine to try and she got me out of my comfort zone in the types of wine I’m normally used to. She also gave us the cork necklaces which was a sweet touch for our celebrations! I’m excited to bring my friends here when they come visit so they could have a great experience as well!

Love coming here! White wine selection is wonderful! Only thing that would make it better is if we could bring our dogs, at least to the outside portion... sometimes we dont come just because most other wineries allow dogs and Wilson doesnt... but they allow people to sit their babies on the counter while drinking wine...

Review №87

The grounds were stunning! We didnt do a tasting here, instead we bought a three bottle pack and sat outside to enjoy! We ordered a charcuterie board and a cheese sampler. Wine was great, food was skimpy for the price but mostly good. The drunken goat cheese was horrendous. When we had the server smell it, she admitted it smelled off and would tell the chef. Other than that, we loved it here!

Buyer beware! If you dare visit this winery with an out of state license be prepared for disappointment. I was visiting from out of town and a local friend took me to enjoy an afternoon at Wilson Creek. While purchasing a tasting card, I had my drivers license inspected and was issued a card. After enjoying a few different tastings, I was asked for my ID for a second time. I happily presented my ID and it was taken to a place out of my sight for “further inspection”. After several minutes of waiting around while the rest of my party enjoyed their drinks I was met by another worker who told me they had a third person inspecting my ID. I waited for several more minutes and was finally greeted by who I am assuming was a supervisor or manager, although she never introduced herself. She informed me that even though I had already had a couple drinks, they would be unable to serve me anymore as they believed my state issued ID to be counterfeit. They asked me if I had a second form of ID on me to which I responded I did not because I hadn’t expected to need a passport for an afternoon of wine tasting. This was incredibly frustrating as I had already spent a significant amount of money to spend my afternoon at Wilson Creek. I asked for this supervisor to explain to me why she thought my ID was fake and was met with non answers and a claim of “we can call the police but that means a lot of paperwork on my end”. I then asked for my ID back which was met with resistance until I offered to call the police. I was very disappointed as this was a very much anticipated portion of my trip to SoCal. Overall a nice venue, but be prepared to waste your time, money, and be terribly let down if you have the audacity to visit without an California ID.

Another local winery where we have a local wine club membership. Beautiful environment. They also have an outstanding brunch buffet on Sundays that is outstanding. You will probably need reservations though since it is very popular.Update for April 2019 -We had a fabulous Sunday buffet today, again at this beautiful local winery where we have now been members of. The Sunday brunch has a great collection of food selections and of course you can have it come with your favorite sparkling wines. The grounds here at this local winery are always up kept nicely and the flowers are beautiful. We continue to give this winery a five star rating in the experience and service is always very pleasant and timely.Wilson Creek Winery continues to have my highest recommendation.

My favorite winery. They have delicious samples for about ~$15 and you are allowed to keep the glass! I have had wonderful experiences every time I’ve come & their gift shop is cute as well. Make sure to take a glass outside to enjoy their beautiful patio and front seating area. Many picturesque locations!! Great for a date or a girl’s day!! their almond champagne is famous for a reason! Try the drink that comes with a chocolate cup!!
