Off a beaten path that showcases some of the most prestigious wineries in Temecula wine country lies the less-traveled, but truly unique De Portola Wine Trail.

There are plenty of ways to stay fit and trim in Temecula’s beautiful wine country. From Yoga in the Vines at Wiens Family Cellars to “Body & Vine” at Leoness Cellars, there is surely something to suit every fitness level.
