- Daisy B7 contributionsPleasantly surprisedI was pleasantly surprised with the Wine tasting tour with Sam. I thought I was going to be bored as I am not a big wine drinker (I get allergies) but I was willing to risk it. I had a great time and guess what no allergies. Apparently the wine is so clean I didn’t get stuffy. And the food is amazing. Scenery is beautiful Let’s just say I drink more wine now and days. And since then I’ve been back 3 times in 2 months.Visited October 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten October 12, 2023

- Melissa M3 contributionsWonderful afternoon sampling winesI had a wonderful afternoon tasting wines are the Monserate Winery. Darius was great and assisted me with picking wines that I enjoyed, and the pizza was terrific! There was live music on the terrace. All in all, it was a very enjoyable afternoon. I even joined the wine club (up to 6 free glasses of wine per month with the case membership). I can't wait to experience more!Hello, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. I am so happy to hear that you joined our wine club.

- tomandmichelewTemecula, California13 contributionsQuite an experiece-love this winery!!All together an amazing experience. Clearly, the staff is trained to acknowledge and greet visitors. While tasting, everyone knows the wine! This is something that many wineries do not take the time to impress upon their servers. Monserate Winery does!! They have an impressive list of award winning wines-something you do not see for such a young winery! We also had lunch while visiting, The wine is what made the experience for us! We loved it and we will be returning. We joined the wine club!Visited May 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten May 19, 2024
- Dawn P8 contributionsBest Local Winery!!!!!This hidden gem is the absolute very best. The wine is great. My personal favorite is the Malvasia Bianca. The food is equally as good. But what takes this winery over the top in my opinion are the people that work there. All of them work hard, are very personable and just take the whole experience to a different level. I cannot speak highly enough of Monserate Winery and highly recommend you visit them soon!Visited June 2024Traveled with friendsWritten June 7, 2024
- Caitlin AAlhambra, California359 contributionsGorgeous venueI attended a wedding at Monserate and it was GORGEOUS. The venue is simply breathtaking, truly a replica of Tuscany. The ceremony and reception were both beautifully done. The only issue was the food. Maybe bc it’s a wedding so it’s to be expected, but my fish was overcooked and dry. Salad just seemed like it was sitting there for an hour. They either need to hire more staff or manage the timing better.Visited June 2024Traveled with friendsWritten June 11, 2024

This winery experience was extremely delightful. The Monte Luna wine was so delicious and the pesto pizza was incredible. The live music was a great touch to the atmosphere. The staff were also super friendly. Overall my husband and I had an incredible experience at Monserate Winery. There’s no need to go to Temecula for wine when you can go to Monserate in Fallbrook! Excited to go back!

If you’re looking for the best winery to attend, this is the one!’ Service, food, activities, energy, and not to mention the WINE were beyond my expectations. Loved it here and will definitely be coming back. Big shoutout to Josh & Keke!!!

Monserate Winery is hands down my favorite winery so far! I’m here way too often. Their events are also so much fun. Both venues are so beautiful with their landscaping, and it’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy a glass of wine with friends and family. Can’t forget the delicious pizza! The staff is also so kind and always so welcoming with a smile on their face. Can’t wait to go back!

Go here! This place is amazing! We did a tasting and Tristan and his co- worker (did not catch his name) we’re so knowledgeable about all the wines. I have never had anyone take that much time with us. He was a great! Very fortunate to have a local who is truly passionate about his area and his job. He really seemed to love what he was doing! The food is outstanding!!! Pizza made from authentic ingredients from Italy!!! They are building a huge event center. It would be amazing for a wedding. We will definitely be back! Thank you.
