Travel + Leisure | Southern California Makes Wine Too! Temecula Valley is an Oasis | Walk with T+L | Travel + Leisure @travelandleisure | Uploaded February 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
If you think Southern California doesn’t have much to offer when it comes to wine, you’ve never visited the Temecula Valley. Just because Joshua Tree National Park (and the desert) is nearby doesn’t mean that famed California sunshine can’t grow delectable wine in this cozy valley’s decomposed granite terroir. We tasted, blended, and adored the best offerings from this region's winegrowers. But vines aren’t the only things that grow wonderfully in the valley; olive trees love the Mediterranean climate, and that makes for some of the best locally made olive oils and extracts you can find. Next time you are in SoCal, don’t neglect to tour this hidden gem of the wine world.
