    We came to Falkner Winery for the first time today to celebrate my husband's birthday with friends. Highlight of our day was a VIP wine tasting on the patio with Halee. She spent over two hours with us. We tasted lots of wonderful wine and her wealth of knowledge is absolutely incredible. She has the most amazing personality and by the end of the tasting we felt like friends. We learned a lot had a nice relaxing time. She then took us on a little tour to see where the wine is produced and finished with a glass of port on the patio. All four of us decided to become wine members because of Halee. We are looking forward to our next visit. We started off in the restaurant for lunch and had a fabulous meal restaurant is very luxurious but the menu prices are very affordable and lots of midweek specials. Will definitely be coming back.

    The definition of personable, warm, inviting, and welcoming service is absolutely Falkner Winery. I cannot wait to come back to this location and experience everything it has to offer soon again. I previously had found this winery just searching the web for a wine tasting experience to plan for my birthday. I went through with booking a reservation for 8 of us, shoutout to Raymond, for really just trying to make my idea of how my birthday wanted to go, come to life. We were in touch through email, and he was on top of it! Unfortunately, I was forced to cancel my reservation, but I knew in my heart that I still wanted to visit Falkner as part of my birthday experience and I did just that. Perched on top of a mountain, with the absolute best views. Plenty of free parking spots available. Walking into the winery, beautiful layout, the inside has a beautiful bar area available for tastings, and a big outside patio for a covered outdoor seating with high tables and stools along with lower seating options. They also have a beautiful grassy area that is available to host weddings, there was a wedding reception the day we were there. Upon walking inside, we were warmly greeted by Jim. He was an absolute pleasure. He really made my birthday weekend truly special, and I wish I had just spent my entire wine tasting experience at Falkner instead of the first location I went to. We walked in around 4:00pm barely making it in time for a tasting before they close at 5, and Jim did not turn us away! He carefully explained the wine tasting experience, he gave us more than a few options to sample before we ended up choosing to buy a bottle. He gave us a logical option of buying a bottle vs doing a regular tasting so we had enough time to enjoy ourselves at the winery while still taking in the experience. Because of the wedding that was taking place, they had platters of cheese & crackers, and a platter of berries, Jim did not hesitate and pulled the platters infront of us, offering us plates & napkins to create personal platters for us for free and enjoy them with our bottle out on the patio. With only barely just 45 minutes of a tasting experience, he went above & beyond to land a great impression on us. The views were beautiful, the experience was great, and the hospitality was unmatched. We truly enjoyed our experience here. Even though it was short lived, it left a long lasting memory and impression on us and we can't wait to be back. We came home with a wonderful bottle of wine and reminiscing on our visit.

    We worked with Raymond to plan my wife's intimate 45th outdoor birthday celebration, and I can honestly say everything came together perfectly. The food from Pinnacle Restaurant was excellent, the tables were set up beautifully, and the views made the whole experience even more special. The staff did an amazing job hosting and made sure everyone felt taken care of throughout the entire event. The DJ was a huge hit--great music, great energy, and everyone was up dancing. From start to finish, it was great food, great vibes, and top-level service. I truly couldn't have asked for a better way to celebrate her 45th. Highly recommend.

    Amazing view and great selection of wines! I tried the Syrah and it was very bold and spicy. The white viogneer was refreshing for a warm day.

    I was recently at a wedding where Victoria was the wedding coordinator. She was the sweetest person I have ever come across. She was attentive, helpful and always made sure everyone had what they needed. The food was amazing as well. The beef was delicious! The venue itself is gorgeous. Even with the weather being incredibly hot, it was beautiful and the trees casting shadows kept us cool. Thank you for providing a beautiful spot for Jovanna and Leyton to get married!

    This was a very peaceful experience. We came here as our second stop and decided to share a flight. They are very modern feeling with tables outside overlooking the vineyards. The service was ok and the wine was good. We came on a Sunday so it was pretty empty which made it a very peaceful experience.

    Came here on a wine tour over Thanksgiving break. Ambiance is casual and very chill. Some folks had on date-ish attire and others had shorts and tshirts on. Service was great. We had someone in staff give us a tour of the vineyard in addition to our tasting. Very knowledgeable, very friendly, their Sangiovese is SO good!

    This is the site for a wedding and had an extraordinary time. The facilities were well stocked, the staff was all very kind and the food and drink for except exceptional. We're over the venue itself was a treasure. What a beautiful way to celebrate a wedding.

    Falkner Winery was the perfect venue for our October wedding. We specifically wanted a winery that offered both great food and a full bar (not just wine), and Faulkner checked every box. One of the biggest highlights was that their day-of coordinator, Victoria, was included--and she was fantastic. From the very beginning, the team provided a clear planning checklist and a list of trusted vendors, which made the entire process feel manageable (especially since we're not natural planners). Everything was organized, communication was strong, and it truly felt like working with a well-oiled machine. The venue itself is absolutely stunning--it genuinely feels like you're in Tuscany. The sunset views are unreal, and both the bridal suite and barrel room were beautiful spaces for getting ready and photos. The food was also a huge win. We did a tasting beforehand and loved it, and our guests are still talking about how good everything was. That alone says a lot. On the day of the wedding, everything ran smoothly and right on time. Victoria kept everything moving seamlessly, and we were able to fully relax and enjoy the day. We also added an extra late-night hour in the restaurant space, which was such a fun way to extend the celebration with more dancing, drinks, and late-night bites. Overall, we felt it was an incredible value for everything that was included. Our wedding day was one of the best days of our lives, and Falkner Winery played a huge role in making it so memorable. We couldn't recommend them more!

    Great wines. Wonderful tour guide, Stephen. Beautiful property. So glad that this was included in our wine tour!!!

    We had the best time!! We booked the VIP tour and Jim had the best table reserved for us. He was so knowledgeable about the winery, the wines and the wine making process. It was a step above the tastings I've done in the area which was exactly what we were looking for. There was a DJ that was playing the funnest music (not too loud), a beautiful view, and a taco truck if you're hungry. This was our first stop of the day and we were there for 3 hours. We love Jim!! I ended up joining the wine club and can't wait to come back.

    Such beautiful views especially because we arrived just before sunset. There's a large deck in the front of the tasting room that overlooks the valley as well as a large grassy area to the side. Plenty of seating on the patio. I had the pleasure of trying their Almante Super Tuscan at a local event and came just to get a glass and enjoy the views. Andy was the wine pourer and he was super friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our wine on the grassy area and took pictures by the cute photo spot. Next time I'll have to come and try more of the wines and check out the restaurant on site as well.

    I was here for my birthday weekend on October 4th. Me and my boyfriend did the Temecula Wine Trolley tour and Falkner was our first stop. I loved this place as soon as I saw it. The views were beautiful! Our tour included the tastings. I fell in love with the sweet dessert wine 2023 Port. I used 6 of my 9 tickets on on the Port 2023. I became a wine club member because of that wine. Our hostess was so nice she explained all the wines we inquired about. I love that this winery allows you to try anything on their menu. While we were only visiting the property for 1 hour and 20 minutes it was enough time to view the property and take plenty of pictures. There was a man playing a guitar and singing although the music wasn't appealing the views were. I didn't go to the restaurant but my boyfriend did buy tacos from the lady grilling in the back of the property. I must say that I will be driving up to pick up my wine monthly and sit and drink my two free glasses.

    Ask the Community - Falkner Winery

    Are kids allowed?

    Hi Andrea! YES! Kids are always allowed :)

    Are you allowed to bring outside food in?

    We do not allowed outside food at this time. We have a restaurant onsite and sometimes a food truck on the weekends.

    Is the restaurant dog friendly?

    Falkner Winery's tasting room and outdoor grounds are very dog friendly. However, the Pinnacle restaurant does not allow dogs.

    Can visitors walk around the vineyard?

    I do not believe so. They are overlooked and all dirt. The horse and carriage I took went thru the vineyard but that was on approve of the owners for that special day

    Is there indoor dining?

    Yes. At The Pinnacle Restaurant.

There's also a stage area where there was live music as well, a man with a guitar, which made for a relaxing and enjoyable ambiance. We very impressed that this place was kid & dog friendly.

Tastings are $25 for six pours on weekdays and $30 on weekends, and you can choose any six wines from the list--including red or white sangria, which was unique. The setup is self-guided, so you can wander the property, sit wherever you'd like, and return to the tasting bar whenever you're ready for your next pour. Unfortunately, that's where the experience slowed down. There was only one person serving, and with about 10 people in line, every refill meant another long wait. As for the wines, they just didn't wow me (of course, that's purely my personal opinion). The standout was the Syrah. We also tried the cheesecake = Overall, the friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere were positives, but the long waits and average wines made the experience fall short of what I'd hoped for.
