Julie's Dream Winery Distillery Vineyards — Attraction in Temecula

Having just learned of Julie's, we stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and were warmly greeted by staff and patrons alike, oh so cool A/C on a hot day and beautiful music by acoustic guitarist Michael LeClerc. It was a great day before having even had a sip of wine!

Our server Angie was fun and knowledgeable as she led us through their wines, taking our taste preferences into account. I especially loved the 2020 Chardonnay and the 2016 Petite Syrah. Angie introduced us to other patrons, coworker Tricia, as well as owner Julie and her husband (and their distiller) Doug who happened to be on site. Someone even brought us comfy stool seating at the bar area!

From our one visit (which btw lasted until closing!), here are some important things to know and love about Julie's: there have lovely sun-drenched patio areas in the front and back. they are pet and kid-friendly. they offer goldfish crackers as a palate cleanser and M&Ms to enhance the flavor of some of the reds. you can bring outside food in, which I love as an option. the wine club has great perks and you can swap out wines at pickups. they have 25 acres of estate vineyards, most replanted as part of the transformation from what this site used to be as Alex's Red Barn Winery. A hundred of the oldest grape vines were saved, including some varietals no longer grown in Temecula Valley. they have a Vineyard house, suites and cottages for which wine club members get a discount.

We are so happy to have discovered this gem of a boutique winery and distillery on Calle Contento off Rancho California Road. It hasn't been officially open for too long (since April 2023 I believe), yet there was a nice crowd there and numbers will no doubt grow as word spreads! This place is the winery version of "Cheers" where everyone knows your name. Thank you Angie and Tricia, for a memorable first visit. We look forward...

I really wanted to enjoy my visit to Julie’s Dreams Winery, but unfortunately the customer service left me disappointed. The employees didn’t seem very welcoming or friendly, which really stood out since the winery didn’t appear to be as busy as others in the area. I expected a warmer atmosphere, especially at a place that should be about hospitality and making guests feel comfortable. We’ve visited quite a few wineries in Temecula, and most of them offer exceptional hospitality that makes you feel valued as a guest. Sadly, Julie’s Dreams Winery just didn’t measure up in that regard.

I’m big on customer care, and it doesn’t matter how good your product is if the customer care isn’t there, I refuse to visit again. Management needs to look into and...
