Briar Rose Winery Featured on NBC’s “Worth the Drive”

“Worth the Drive”, NBC’s travel blog, featured Briar Rose Winery as a place to visit in its April 9, 2012 entry. Briar Rose Winery is a boutique winery in Temecula featuring Snow White-inspired cottage built by Disney Imagineer, Beldon Fields.

NBC’s travel blog “Worth the Drive” featured our Briar Rose Winery in its April 9 entry.  We are excited to be mentioned as a destination for great wine in our fairytale setting of Snow White-inspired cottages.
With Disney’s 75th Anniversary of its first full length animated film, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”  coming up, we are proud to be mentioned in the same breath as this iconic film.  Disney Imagineer Beldon Fields, who built the Briar Rose cottages in our Temecula Valley, would be delighted that his work of love for his wife is still recognized and appreciated by fans around the world.

We love the mention on NBC’s blog and we look forward to making new friends who agree that we are “Worth the Drive”!

Briar Rose Winery Estate Wines is a Taste of Home

Briar Rose Winery must meet specific criteria to call our award winning wine “estate”. The Temecula Valley’s premiere boutique winery painstakingly creates estate wine 100% on  property from start to finish to personally maintain the highest quality at each step of the process.

We proudly serve our estate wines at our Briar Rose Winery in the Temecula Wine Country.  Did you know that in order to call our award winning wines “estate” our wine has to meet several conditions set by the US federal government’s Alcohol, Tobacco, Tax and Trade Bureau?

The wine must be made completely from grapes either grown on land, owned by the winery, or controlled by the winery in the same viticultural area. The Temecula Valley is considered one of the fastest growing viticultural areas in the country.  If we have bad weather and have to purchase grapes from another vineyard and the wine cannot be considered “estate”.

The wine may not leave the premises at any time during its production.  It’s for this reason that we crush and ferment the grapes, bottle and age the wine right here at Briar Rose Winery, Temecula Valley’s premiere boutique winery under the watchful eye of our winemaker/owner Les Linkogle. We personally ensure the quality of the wine at each step in the process to create the best wines for our customers.  We are proud to put the word “estate” on many of our award-winning wines and consider it a taste of home.
We have an Estate Riesling with hints of orange blossom, peaches and apricots and an Estate Viognier  that boasts of exotic fruits, white peach and a luscious florals.  

To appeal to variety of estate wines among our standard wine options as well as featured estate wines in our ultra-premium selections , make a reservation to try some of our delicious wines today and purchase a bottle or two of our delicious estate wines to take a taste of home where ever you may go!
