We had a late lunch/early dinner at Leonesse and it was a pleasant surprise. My husband and I were guests of our neighbors (we live in close-by Murrieta) who had been to the winery before the restaurant opened. We had the chopped chicken salad, a Greek salad pizza, side order of vegetable medley and a to-die-for beef marsala. The wines... More

This is the first winery and vineyard that I had ever visited in Southern California. I was very skeptical that great wines could come out of the area between Los Angeles and San Diego.

Ok, we might have had a bit too much to drink but regardless... More

Love, love this winery. Its our favorite winery in Temecula. Fantastic views, wine and food. On Sunday's the winery has a live band which is great. Everytime we visit Leoness we are NEVER disappointed.

We toured Leoness as part of a tour. Grace met us out back with a bottle of wine to start our tasting. We went into the barrel room where more wine awaited us, and she graciously took pictures for us. We walked through the vineyards and to the tasting room where we sampled delicious wines with a no pressure attitude.... More
