This winery has some gorgeous views of Temecula Wine Valley from all around & the picnic area is very nice & green..The ladies behind the counter were nice, I guess that service here varies because the other times that I came here, they were very nice & others, not so nice.. but the wines were good... =) I just LOVED the Luscious lip that was served as hot lips in a crock pot with mulled spices...Yummy! =) Most popular wine: 2004 Luscious Lips Highest-rated wine: 2002 Merlot read more

Took my family wine tasting in the Temecula valley. Falkner was our favorite. The restaurant was good and the view was nice. It would be nice if they offered espresso after lunch. We had a wonderful time trying different wines. Jim Jensen was very personable and knowledgeable. The cab, Syrah and Riesling were amazing!! read more

We hired a limo, and the second stop was Falkner. Our driver allowed us to to finish our wine which made us 10 minutes late to Falkner. They were not busy and our group of 20 was not only tasting but also buying bottled. Because were were late the refused to serve us. Btw - our group was almost entirely POC LGBTQ and there were Trump flags next to the winery. We didn't get to taste any wine, but the lack of any accommodation since we were part of a tour is unacceptable. read more

I really enjoyed this winery because of the amazing outdoor patio where you can sit and relax and have an amazing view of the nearby wineries. There is a fake grass area with picnic tables as well where people brought their kids and dogs too. The wine itself is very tasty as well and one of the cheaper wineries out there - it was $10 for 4 tastings. Since we came during winter, they had a special warm wine which was like a warm, sweet sangria. P.S: Yelp Check - In and get another free tasting (1 more sample!) read more

Our wine tasting experience was by far amazing... shout out to Jim, who was amazing. Great customer service. The view was amazing!!!

Went to Falkner with my wife on New Year's Eve and had a great tasting experience. We enjoyed talking and learning about their wines with Jim, who was very knowledgeable and personable, as well as the history of the Temecula wine region overall as first timers to the Temecula wine valley. It was exactly the local wine tasting experience I was looking for as it has been minute since I used to visit Sonoma and Napa. (I can't say the same for the first place we went where they gave us a menu, gave us out flight and sent us on our way to the nearby tables.). They have a beautiful tasting room and deck with great views. We enjoyed the wines and with Jim telling us about the wine club without being pushy or salesy, we ended up becoming members and bought three bottles. Will recommend Falkner to any friends planning to go wine tasting. read more

As a previous winery employee, Jim J. was hands down the best wine steward I have come across. His attentiveness and knowledge of the wines made my tasting experience amazing. The icing on the cake was the wine. If you are a fan of rieslings, Falkner's is a MUST. read more

Wow. I highly recommend adding Faulkner onto your list of wineries to try in Temecula! What an amazing experience we had. If you're into a chill vibe with live music and sit down tastings with a nice view, then you're in for a treat! Special shout out to Jim for taking such great care of us. the wine also tastes amazing!! You won't be disappointed! :) read more

Good wine, especially the Cabernet Sauvignon - IMHO. Lunch here was great! Had the Brussel sprouts ( just a hair too much salt, for my taste) but huge serving and wonderful flavor. The scallops were tender and with the butternut squash purée a perfect match! The salmon toast was very good and again almost too much to eat! Recommend!! read more

On 4-22-2023 I attended a wedding for my stepdaughter, that should've been magical and unforgettable, altho the staff was absolutely, very judgemental and racist towards the entire party. They destroyed materials that the family brought to set up for the dessert table, and when asked about the materials was told very rudely that they didn't have them. They didn't replenish the dessert table as promised in their contract, silver ware was dirty and unsanitary, when asked for clean utensils they laughed and walked away. The coordinator was no where to be found for majority of the event and evenning then went and blamed it on the DJ, who was a family friend to the bride. Lastly they have pest named Mr. RAT that enjoys crashing the event and feasting other dessert table. I would not recoend this venue to.anyone unless the staff completely replaced. The food and view were the only happy moments of the night. This is why it recieved 2 stars. read more

My husband and I went back to Falkner after poor service in 2018. Andy and Jordan were amazing! They provided fantastic customer service while describing the wine and answering our questions. I'm looking forward to joining their wine club and visiting them frequently. My wine preference is for single varietal reds that are super dry. They don't have many due to making wine for a wide variety of pallets. My favorite drink was the port and merlot. read more

April and Caroline- sweetie pies!!! Unlike the other winery my group and I visited, this one was by far the "hipster" winery. Way more crowded than the other winery. I felt like i was at a bar during happy hour. But what I did like was the view outside while we were tasting. So relaxing. My group and I took advantage of the view by taking numerous photos. I really didn't care too much for any of the wines, but the white and red sangria were so refreshing! I could sit there and drink that entire pitcher. It was definitely a "sneak up on you drink" because I was a little tipsy after a few tastings of just the sangria. The white, by far, was a hit for all of us. They provided the ingredients to make both the white and red wines at home. $10 for 4 tastings or $15 for 6 tastings. You pay first and they give you chips (poker-looking chips) to use to pick your tastings. If you "like" them on Facebook, they will give you an additional chip. You can do your tastings indoors or outside. Would I come back, maybe. Only because we had a limo and was limited on time and needed to check out other wineries. read more

Great wine, views and service. Love having a tasting before lunch at their Pinnacle Restaurant.

Great views, live band, very laid back vibes, and great date spot. Jim our host was so gracious and sweet!!

Our host Jim poured our tastings and was such a friendly person with great recommendations. We sat outside with a live music entertainment and the views are fantastic. They really make you feel welcome! Modern winery with something for everyone. read more

I never once thought about drinking wine until I came to Falkner winery and met Jim. Now wine is all that I can think about. Jim made the experience so delightful that I'm even considering having my wedding at the Falkner winery. I started off by signing up for the membership. And now I am a proud member of Faulkner winery. Thank you so much to Jim, who helped me out with this experience. read more

3 stars because I was so disappointed with service this past trip. Every time I come to Temecula I make a stop here because I love their wine. Also the patio and view are so serene and relaxing. It was a Thursday and there were 3 ladies from what I saw working. They were busy tending to the customers they had at the time, but a simple "hi, we will be right with you in a few minutes.." would have been much appreciated. I felt so unwelcome that I told my boyfriend we should go somewhere else. Finally, after what was about 5-8 minutes, we were helped. Had one glass and left. The next winery we stopped at we were greeted by the ONE wine tender with a full bar and were helped right away. Communication goes a long way and it only takes two seconds to make someone feel welcomed and retain patience. Ultimately, I'll be back because I love the wine but I hope service is a little better next time. read more

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE GLEN! He's a great bartender, tip him if you got him! This winery is great, the service is like nothing else. The views are great, offering 360 perspectives over Temecula wine country. The Viognier and Meritage are great. Can't wait to come back. I don't typically write Yelp reviews, but this is the place to go! By the way Glen is great at Selfies. read more

If I could give this place 100 stars I would. This past weekend I proposed to my now fiancée here at Falkner Winery and Mrs. Falkner helped me put it together and she was soooooo accommodating! She set me up with a private table over looking the vineyard. Which I must say they have the best view hands down out of all the wineries in Temecula. The staff knew what was going on and they were so helpful. I can't say enough how grateful I am that they helped me out so much with this special moment. She also set up a horse and carriage ride for me. Best customer service by far I have ever experience. read more

Hi there, We were just there (4:30PM) and their website states that they're open til 5! We called SEVERAL TIMES ONCE WE GOT HERE!!! Gate closed and NO ONE ANSWERED phone. IF YOU ARE TRULY OPEN, someone should answer the phone. If not.... (and it's ok if you're not) just have that on your voice mail. I just drove from Orange County because you're one of my favorite wineries in Temecula. I've wasted 1/2 tank of gas for nothing. Makes me sad!! I get that it's a crazy time right now. I just wish that ALL COMMUNICATION WAS STRAIGHT FORWARD!! read more

Came for the wine but left thinking about what a wonderful customer service experience we had with Jim, our host. Very professional, polite and knowledgeable about the area and the wine options. The wine tasted better with him serving us! Tasting room was beautifully laid out with plenty of room to enjoy the view. read more

If you are visiting Temecula, you must incorporate Falkner into your trip. The winery has some pretty views (maybe not the prettiest in comparison to the others) but it makes up for it with their wine selection. They have their famous Bordeaux Meritage red wine. Full bodied and exceptional! I always buy a bottle when I'm in town. Ask for the wine production tour, very informative. Best wine selection! read more

Jim was so great! He made our tasting soecial to us! we join the wine club just because of him!

Made a reservation on open table for 230 I get a call from the winery stating that they stop at 2 o'clock for reservations if I could come in earlier I told them that I wasn't able to and all I got was the runaround and how they had to speak to the kitchen to make sure that they know that there's a 230 coming I would never recommend this place they should've overlooked the 30 freaking minutes and just said we'll see you when you get here but no poor poor customer service would not recommend this winery read more

5 Stars doesn't do Falkner winery justice, Yelp, I need more stars! We were looking for an outdoor garden wedding and this venue exceeded our expectations. Beautiful is an understatement. The professionalism, care, attentive & helpful spirit, personable service, attention to detail, everything was so spectacular-spectacular, from my first tour mid July 2017, to the culmination of our wedding on 03/17/18. This was the ONLY wedding venue tour that we needed to take, it literally encompassed every important dimension of our dream wedding. We fell head over heels in love upon first sight. Thank you sooo much Falkner winery, we look forward to celebrating our 1 year anniversary with you next year! -The Herrera's read more

We signed up for their wine club two years ago on our first visit. Our sommelier, Reggie was very knowledgeable and always treated us wonderfully. My favorite wines at Faulkner include their Cabernet, Amante, Lucious Lips (red), and their "hot toddy" wine they offer in the winter. This hot wine is similar to "ponche caliente" that is served during Christmas time in Mexico. I've visited this winery many times since I was a member and most recently I was there in October 2020. read more

Last stop before going home and so glad we stopped here. It was very relaxing sitting in their patio high up just looking at all the beauty around. Did two tasting which is 6 tasting each. You get to taste whichever wine you want. The wine was good and the service was great. They were closing early because of the super bowl. The only wine that I will remember from here was the one served hot. I thought it was spicy but it's actually served hot lol it's perfect for a cold day. The views at Falkner make it a must stop by winery. read more

We were here for lunch. The view from our window table was gorgeous. . It's situated high up on a hill. Just wish our server was not chewing something in the mouth when we're being served. Another server was walking around with a soiled white cleaning towel tucked behind at the waist. The servers greeting us near the front door were very welcoming though. Pork belly sandwich was passable and the lettuce with the chicken sandwich could be more fresh. There were piles of storage cardboard stacked on some shrlves in open public view, making the place look like a take-out joint. read more

Underwhelming-glass of wine $20 - no glass ricing listed -even asked! I have enough brand glasses-I could have bought a bottle! Outdoor tasting area is sad! No effort! Perfect day but not here! Sorry! read more

So the first time I went to this winery, I had a blast. There was a Dj, the wine was awesome, and I went with a bunch of friends. I decided to get a wine membership. So I purchased my first 3 bottles. Now fast forward to the month when members pay their membership to pick up their wine. I hit a financial snag and called before the membership payment would go into affect and the rep told me I needed to complete this months payment (about $170 for 3 bottles) and then I can cancel after that. I said that was fine. Today I go to pick up my membership and it's no where to be found (even though I have my receipt) so I asked for the employee to go find out. Thankfully he comes back with my bottles and ask to get my membership tastings (since I did pay the membership) and he tells me that I need to pay full price to try anything.... He said or I can repurchase my membership to get my tastings. Needless to say, I left and I will not ever go back. I feel like they just took my money and didn't care about the members. read more

Loved this winery! And to top it off the hostesses gave us a mini charcuterie plate to go along with the wines we would be tasting. There was also a small gift shop that had a ton of great souvenirs read more
