 Many years ago before real estate developers discovered Temecula, the valley was dotted with small, family owned farms, orchards, and vineyards. Our winery is the fruition of owner's Les and Dorian Linkogle's lifelong dream and marks a return to those idyllic times as Temecula's first, reservation only (click here) winery.

In a sense the Linkogle's have come full circle and want to celebrate the return to a small, family-owned business. We welcome you to enjoy our Temecula wines, wander the gardens and savor the enchantment.  You will walk away not with just a the best Temecula wine tasting experience, but a memory.

"A must stop when visting Temecula wineries"
- Betty in Costa Mesa

Annually, we produce about 2,400 cases, some of which have received "cult wine" status by wine connoisseurs and writers. Specializing in red varietals, the estate-grown offerings include an intense award winning Estate Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, and a super Tuscan blend. Other offerings include a lively, fruity Sangiovese and Merlot.  Our white varietals include a Viognier, and a Fume Rose. Our newest release is a sweet and effervescent wine lager called "Talking Frog".

Whether its your first or your next Temecula wine tasting trip, we invite you to come visit our Temecula winery (located in Southern California) and "Taste the Enchantment" of our premium, award winning wines.

2011 Talking Frog  

The new release of Talking Frog is here!  Delicious!  This bubbly wine lager is sweet, light and fruity.  The refreshing flavor of Talking Frog can be enjoyed with a variety of foods including brunch and desert.  This varietal is 100% Viognier.

This is a true part of the unique quality of Briar Rose Wine.

Brand New! 

2003 Merlot

Our first Merlot Vineyard, planted in 1992.  This vineyard produced spectacular fruit.  This unique and special vineyard was removed to allow for what is now the winery parking lot.  The 2003 vintage is the last fruit of the vines used to craft this very special wine.

Though still displaying the complexity and structure for which our wines are known, this unique and special wine highlights a refining grace and brilliance, with sophisticated aromas and distinctive blueberry notes.  It open with exotic layers of spice, red plum, chestnut and vanilla, before revealing a velvety texture, firm ripe tannins and alluring flavors of blueberry, cherry, mocha and walnut.
