General Info

Palumbo Family Vineyards Located in the heart of Temecula Valley Wine Country, Palumbo Family Vineyards is committed to small lot, handcrafted wines from varieties that are grown on the property. Nicholas Palumbo, a passionate Viticulturist and budding Enologist, believes in producing only what he grows himself. The unique terroir of his 12-acre vineyard provides perfect conditions for Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Sangiovese varietals. "Our wines get their depth and character from their small-scale production. Every step of the growing process is closely monitored. I know what goes into every grape, crush the wine myself, and pour my soul into every sip." Most of the estate grapes are over 10 years old, and are in high demand from local winemakers. In 1998, Nicholas Palumbo purchased 7 planted acres and a home nestled in the hills of Temecula Valley Wine Country. Soon after, he purchased an additional 5 acres, planting Cabernet Sauvignon grapes on the day his daughter Sophia was born. This 5-acre site is now known as Sophia's Vineyard
