Reviews for Cougar Vineyard and Winery in Temecula, CA
When walking in I was a bit disappointed, we were not greeted or acknowledged. It was very awkward so we chose our own seating... outside. Though, one staff member came out and went above and beyond for us. She was fun,kind,attentive and she NEVER made usfeel rushed and that's Erica! She really made the experience for us! So if you're considering coming here, ask for Erica!!!!! Read more
We were a group of 14 girls, and the reason why we picked this winery because it was within a good walking distance. Only reason... I’m giving 4 stars is all because of Erika! When we walked in we did not feel welcome at all. So we sat outside. The Staff wasnot nice at all. Until we got Erika ..She was amazing! She took care of us all. Erika is your best employee there! Ask forErika!???? and you will have an amazing time there! Read more
Didn't care for the wine or service here! The positive thing about this winery is its outdoor patio offers a nice shade with... stunning views of the surrounding mountains. They did have cheese, and meats that can be ordered. I feel like this is my leastfavorite place in the area. Read more
Beautiful grounds and view. It’s so lush and green. The service was top notch. Friendly staff and very accommodating. We... really didn’t care for the wines. They are on the younger side and don’t have much debt. The ports were delicious. But thebest part of this whole experience was the port truffles. They are AMAZING!! Be sure to give it a try.

Stopped in today for a wine tasting while out enjoying the local area. The wines were very good. I started with their sparkling... Cougar Bubbly, a very good Brut, I recommend it. Finished with the reds that did not disappoint. Covid 19 precautions were inplace. I’d like to return to this winery, to experience it at it pre-Covid level. Will and Sean were at the counter offeringthe tastings and were very knowledgeable regarding the wines, the grapes and the wine making process. Read more
Wonderful experience. Super informative on growing history and taste influences. Highly recommend. We chose the Pink Cougar. ... Sweet dessert wine with excellent diversity start to finish. Edit: came back and still love! Read more
First time back in 10 plus years... So my review is based off of 2019 and they no longer have a tiny Little shack tasting room... (Nothing wrong with that). Now they have a great view with lots of seating to enjoy the view. Plenty of seats, so bring yourfriends and family. They have a Deli, but not just any DELI. Really great tasting food. Good salads, great Pizzas, awesomesandwiches, great appetizers.....and wait for it !!!! Great Price ! And they serve "Bores Head" but don't overcharge like mostplaces. The best part about this Place ? .They serve Craft Beer, ON TAB. Yes they serve local craft beer from "Black Market" ontab. Read more
Do not go if you want to taste wine. Waited 20 minutes for service at the table we were directed to go to. Went back inside to... get “help”. There was none to be found. The person who checked us in for table obviously didn’t want to be there. I dohope their wine is better than their service. I won’t ever find out. Read more
