Oak Mountain Winery

Love Oak Mountain! The place is beautiful and the food is great! We loved the sparkling wine. I can't remember the name though. "The Cave" is an actual cave in the side of a mountain! Very Cool! Our server was Ray and he was excellent! Can't wait to go again!

Just tried the new distillery that opened this weekend it's called 36522 The distillery. It is a more intimate experience as the max occupancy in the building is 49 people. You do need reservations and they will not take walk ins. We tried some delicious appetizers and their new cocktails cocktails were strong. The margarita tasted like fresh lime, the bees knees was sweet like honey, the strawberry daiquiri was a bit sour, the new york sour was sweet and tasty, the revolver had a dark coffee flavor, and the smoked old fashion was probably one of my favorites you could really taste the smoky flavor.

Beautiful space, great view & wine. The staff is attentive with generous pours. The food menu is limited to appetizers meant for two to share but very nicely prepared & presented albeit on the more expensive side for their portions but well worth ordering to pair with the wine selection.

Took a friend to the Cave restaurant and we had a great experience! Our server was awesome! And the food was excellent! Very quaint and nice to dine inside the cave and escape the heat! Wi definitely go back! Try the midweek early dinners!

We spent an amazing afternoon with friends at Oak Mountain Winery and their Distillery right on the same grounds along the De Portola Wine Trail. We had been to Oak Mountain for the awesome cave tour a few years ago before we moved to Temecula, and were excited to visit again as resident Temeculans! We sat outside on the beautiful pavilion and enjoyed the sweeping views, tastings and then bottles of several reds and a Sauv Blanc. We also couldn't resist orders of the chimichuri steak fries which were INCREDIBLE! After finishing up at the winery when they closed at 5, we took a short walk over to the 36522 Distillery...which ended up being worth a visit by itself! It's fairly new, having just opened in April 2022, and is located just steps away from the tasting pavilion. It's located in what was the original tasting room of Oak Mountain Winery built in 2005. They totally nailed the ambiance -it truly is everything you expect in a speakeasy. Comfy seating, perfect lighting, ability to order food, super friendly and knowledgeable staff, and of course, amazing handcrafted cocktails made with their own distilled spirits, no less! How cool is that? We ordered French 75s and some smoked old-fashioneds smoked and finished off at our table, and they were all excellent. Side note: Cave Café also has a great seniors speeders and brunch menu! And to make things even better, it was a Thursday - when wine club members get 15% off cocktails, food & spirits in the distillery from 2-8pm! No reservations are necessary which is a huge plus to me. As a side note, we waited several weeks to get reservations with friends to go to Apparition Room the speakeasy in Devilicious in Old Town and it was a total disappointment see that review. In my opinion, 36522 Distillery is the speakeasy to go to in Temecula! Oak Mountain is a fun and truly unique place with delicious wines, food and spirits!

We came via BEST COAST tours. The tour included a flight of wines, a charcuterie board and a mini tour of the cave. The tour guide was super nice and informative. The winery was picturesque and pleasant. The staff was friendly and helpful. The cave, however, was legit cool. They host weddings, bridal parties and have memberships.

Came here for the wine tasting tour with my sis on my birthday. Our tour guide Noah was everything I expected and then some! Super knowledgeable, patient, funny, and cute. He definitely played a major part in the overall experience! That being said, the winery itself is SUPER cute and filled with personality. And turns out there is an interesting past of how it came to be...the tour is very worth it for the story/history alone. The cave tour is not much walking so comfy heels are possible fyi. Also filled with many great photo opportunities! They have cool indoor dining nooks and are known for good food will be dining on our next visit for sure!. Perfect place for a romantic date or friends day out

A very delightful winery and the first alleged wine cave, since I thought my wine cave was the first. A 104 ft subterranean wine cave where you can wine taste and eat. But definitely a must-experience- stop in #Temecula wine region.. just don’t get in the way of servers when inside the cave.. most staff is very friendly and accommodating..

We had a pretty good time there yesterday. Wine tasting and a short tour and told a history of Oak Mountain.

Amazing Place!!! Very dog friendly! The tasting room is built into the side of the mountain, and according to one employee, it is 60 feet under ground. On a HOT 105 degree day it felt cool and refreshing! Super nice and helpful employees. EXTREMELY dog friendly! We've been to a number of Temecula dog friendly wineries, and so far, as dog friendly goes, this is at the top of our list. We live about 1 1/2 hours away and come here on vacation, and so far, this is a place that we definitely intend on returning to! Whether you are on vacation with Fido or not the wines are great! I highly recommend this place!
