Another new winery, this time in Temecula:  Altisima Winery.

Altipiano

Altipiano is another winery that we visited as a result of a recommendations from NextDoor Scripps Ranch Fallbrook Estates, though my wine expert had been there before.   Another great recommendation.  Thank you, neighbors!
Located off of Highland Valley Road in Escondido, visiting Altipiano is more like visiting someone’s home rather than a winery.  I guess it’s because you are visiting someone’s home!  That’s right, the owners have converted the grounds around their 6,000 sq. ft. home into a winery, and, as you can see in the picture below, their patios as well.

I did not get a picture inside their very small tasting room because we were only there for a very short time.  The wine maker herself escorted us to the patio with a great view.  It was a pretty cold day, so we actually sat in front of the fireplace you see in the picture below.  They bring the wine to you, along with oyster crackers and Ghirardelli chocolates – you can see them on the coffee table next to the glasses.

You get five tastes for $10 – the wines shown in the menu below.  While this is a small and relatively new winery, they take wine making very seriously.  As a result, these are serious wines well worth looking into.  Oh, and one very nice thing – the tasting is free if you buy a bottle of their wine.You get five tastes for $10 – the wines shown in the menu below.  While this is a small and relatively new winery, they take wine making very seriously.  As a result, these are serious wines well worth looking into.  Oh, and one very nice thing – the tasting is free if you buy a bottle of their wine.
