Ten Tips for the perfect Temecula wine tour
- It is best to book a winery visit in advance, they may not have the staffing
capability to cope with visitors who turn up unannounced. It’s best to phone ahead or check websites for opening hours, tour arrangements and wine tasting fees.
- Plan where and when to have lunch. Some wineries have restaurants or picnic
areas. Not all wineries allow outside food.
- When visiting wineries, go easy on the perfumes, colognes and lipsticks. These
will interfere with the taste and aromas of the wines.
- When tasting a selection of wines, the following is the best sequence in which to
try them; start with whites and end with reds. However, if your visit includes the opportunity to try some particularly sweet or dessert wines, always leave these until the end. This is because when a dry wine is tasted after a sweet wine, it almost invariably tastes bitter.
- Bread or crackers are often provided in tasting rooms. These serve to freshen
the palate in between wines and ensure that you can appreciate each wine, on an individual basis.
- To spit or not to spit? This is very much a personal choice. Those that spit out
the wines will usually be the more serious wine drinkers – but are they having as much fun?
- Wines purchased on-site usually represent excellent value for money. However,
do not feel obliged to buy wines at the end of a visit (particularly when you have paid a tasting fee). Having said that, we live in a real world, and it can be a bit awkward if you’re virtually the only people there. A judicious purchase at the lower end of the price spectrum usually provides a welcome ice-breaker in these situations!
- If you’re not careful, the effects of tasting have a habit of sneaking up on you. A
designated driver or renting a limo is the best move, allowing the others to relax and enjoy.
- If you are intending to purchase wines, it’s useful to take a cooler box to store
them in, particularly during the hotter months. Extremes of temperature will harm the quality of the wine.
- Take notes for the next time you visit Temecula wineries you will remember
where you tasted a certain wine.
