California Roots. Italian Soul. Cougar Vineyard & Winery is the De Portola estate where Rick and Jennifer grow the grapes, make the wine, and welcome you like you wandered into their home.
Seventeen acres of Italian varietals you will not find at the usual stops. Sangiovese, Aglianico, Montepulciano, Vermentino, plus rare bottles like Brachetto, Falanghina, and Ciliegiolo that prove Temecula can grow more than the safe choices.
Staff guide you through unfamiliar wines with warmth, not a lecture. You leave knowing what you tasted and why it matters.
Sangio's Osteria makes lunch part of the tasting. Made to order pizzas, charcuterie, and plates designed to pair with what you are drinking. Grab an Adirondack chair with a view and let the afternoon stretch.
Dogs are welcome and planned for. Wine club members stay for years because they feel like insiders.
Reserve your tasting and discover why curious drinkers make Cougar their Temecula anchor.
