South Coast Winery Celebrates 20th Anniversary
Pioneering Temecula winery and resort South Coast Winery Resort & Spa has much to celebrate on its 20th anniversary. Commemorative events include a special anniversary red blend, live country music series, grape stomps, special dinners, and a luxury anniversary resort package.
Since its inception in 2001, the Carter family-owned winery put Temecula Valley on the map as a premier wine destination and also set the bar for the Southern California wine industry by breaking records in both domestic and international competitions – all while accumulating over 3,000 accolades. South Coast offers approximately 45 wine labels and proudly introduces its most recent addition – a special 20th Anniversary Blend.
In many ways,, this blend has been “20 years in the making” proving what can be created in the Temecula region – certified sustainable production of 49% Syrah, 22% Mourvèdre, 19% Grenache and 10% Petite Sirah – delivering a rich, complex Rhône-style that highlights the best of the Temecula Valley.
Rhythm on the Vine® Country Series
South Coast Winery’s Rhythm on the Vine® Country Series kicks off the 20th anniversary festivities on September 2 with Coffey Anderson performing with Kanan Road as the opener. This concert will benefit the American Cancer Society with $10 from each ticket sold donated. On September 22 country hit singer Dylan Scott performs, and the series ends with a September 23 performance by award-winning Cassadee Pope with an opening set by Leaving Austin. Concerts are held outdoors in the Courtyard; doors open at 5 p.m. and concerts begin at 7 p.m.
