Enjoy the vintage, industrial feel of 1909 28656 Old Town Front St. | Temecula, CA 92590 | www.1909temecula.com | 951-252-1909 1909temecula @1909temecula Whether you are in Temecula for a vacation, visiting friends, or work, look no further than 1909, a unique restaurant and gastropub located in the heart of Old Town Temecula. As you drive through Old Town, one of the things that draws you to this restaurant is the large patio seating area that is always filled with people and tons of laughter and good times. After reading and hearing about all of the amazing reviews 1909 has from locals and out-of-towners, this restaurant is one to experience for yourself! 1909 is a tribute to the Machado building, the location where the restaurant and bar now lives. Well before the 1909 burger was created, this structure has been home to a trading post, livery, auto shop and most notably a bar. During the 70’s, the Longbranch Saloon was known as the roughest place in town to get a drink. Locals often stop in and tell stories of brawls and shootings. In fact, several bullet holes are still in the ceiling. It is no wonder that 1909 continues to draw the crowds.
With handcrafted scratch made food and cocktails, 1909 delivers a unique experience for everyone! While dining at 1909, don’t forget to try their large selection of craft beer, local wine and specially handcrafted cocktails. You can order off of their menu or give them a little direction and let the bartenders and mixologists create a unique one-of-a kind drink that will wow your palette. The Cedar Smoked Old Fashioned is a crowd favorite and gives a great show while they make it. Adding to the many offerings that 1909 has is their brunch menu that is offered on Saturdays and Sundays, complete with bottomless mimosas and a tableside bloodymary cart. It doesn’t get better than that! For those who want to try something more unique, order the Carnivore bloodymary complete with chicken wings, bacon and a meat straw. Yes, a meat straw. Dine with your kids during the day, or come in for a fun evening and even late night menu offerings. And if you happen to have your four-legged children with you, 1909 even has a dog menu that dogs can enjoy on the front patio. Not only does 1909 create an upbeat environment 7 days a week, but they also offer special days like “Tiki Tuesdays” complete with a tiki food & cocktail menu. You can even host your private event or party at 1909 and use their private bar on the back patio. All around, you are guaranteed to find something for everyone at 1909!

OLD TOWN
HISTORY The Pechanga band of Luiseño Native American Indians were our first residents. They ran their hands through the soil, met under the Great Oak and stood atop the rolling hills overlooking the valley, naming it Temecula, or “sunshine through the mist.” Gateway arches at the northern and southern entrances to this downtown district commemorate our past. In 1859, in the era of the Butterfield Stage, the first U.S. post office was established Continued on page 18...
VAIL HEADQUARTERS
Although Old Town is the historic heart of Temecula Valley, the newly restored Vail Headquarters on Temecula Parkway gives history buffs another place to soak in our stagecoach-era heritage. Originally a trading post established by Louis and Ramona Wolf (Ramona was the Chugach heroine of the eponymous novel written in 1884 by Helen Hunt Jackson), the site would later become the headquarters of one of California’s largest cattle operations, owned by Walter Vail. The Vail Ranch was sold to developers in the 1960s. More than 40 years later, in 2016, Vail Headquarters reopened, thanks to the efforts of an active group of citizens who worked to restore and preserve many of the original buildings as a vital part of Temecula’s history. It now houses charming shops and cafes, a Tuesday morning farmers market, and an unmistakable air of days gone by. 16 I V i s i t Te m e c u l a Va l l e y. c o m

here, marking Temecula’s permanence and importance. Thus, the year 1859 is boldly emblazoned on each arch. Two decades later, in 1882, the Temecula town site was established with the arrival of the railroad, with a station in Old Town, midway between Riverside and San Diego. Then, in the early 1900s, new roads reached the valley and helped to open up Temecula to the outside world. The Inland Highway (the first, paved, two-lane, county road and ancestor of Highway 395) was built through Temecula Valley in 1915. Until 1949, it ran down Old Town Front Street where restaurants, gas stations, and motels served those travelling through the Temecula Valley. Meanwhile, from the 1800s until the 1960s, farmers and ranchers blanketed the valley with cattle and crops. In 1905, cattle baron Walter Vail began buying vast acreage here. By 1947, the Vail Ranch included more than 87,000 acres.

In 1964, the Vails announced the sale of their ranch to a consortium of developers that had plans for a masterplanned community to be known as Rancho California. When the City of Temecula was incorporated in 1989, residents voted to retain the original Native American name of the village and railroad town site. Today, more than a dozen historical properties dating as far back as the late 1880s still exist and have been repurposed and reopened in Old Town. Yet the area continually improves and re-imagines itself in new, contemporary ways. Mixed in with the historical facades, recently built structures reflect different architectural styles, lending an authentic and thoroughly individual spirit cultivated here for more than 150 years. Although Temecula now boasts a population close to 113,000 and nearly 3 million visitors each year, our heritage is not forgotten.

WINE COUNTRY
WINE COUNTRY
Temecula Valley Southern California Wine Country spans more than 33,000 acres—the largest viticultural area in Southern California—yet is one of the state’s best-kept secrets. First planted in 1968, the region is now home to more than 40 wineries, from boutique to large-production, rustic to modern. Its Mediterranean-like climate is marked by long, warm days moderated by the ocean breeze that blows through the Rainbow Gap, and cool nights. It's a grape grower’s (and vacationer’s!) dream. Temecula Valley Wine Country is that rare hidden-gem wine region—one of those places you’ll want to discover before anyone else does.
From Arneis to Zinfandel, a veritable A-Z of grapes are grown and vinified into dozens of varietal wines and blends from dry to dessert, sparkling to sweet. Temecula Valley wines reflect the hard work and passion of their creators, regularly receiving 90+ scores and earning more than 5,000 domestic and international awards to-date. Our tasting rooms are warm and welcoming, and many offer live music and other entertainment, as well as full (and delicious) food service—a feature unique to the region. Midweek is the
perfect time to come, when tasting rooms are intimate, and the odds that you’ll find winemakers and winery owners behind the tasting bar are high. A spirit of celebration—of life, the harvest, the day—pervades Temecula Valley, and an inclusiveness that begs locals and visitors alike to clink glasses with your neighbor as you plan your next visit. The result is an emerging wine region that offers something surprising and delightful, and provides yet another reason to love Southern California.

WINE COUNTRY
WINE TASTING 101 In Temecula Valley, we all agree that visiting wineries should be fun, educational and, most importantly, memorable. Here are some helpful hints to get the most from your wine-tasting experience: Bring supplies: Before heading out, pack a cooler with water and snacks to keep you going during the day. It’s also the perfect place to stash the bottles you purchase so they don’t overheat! Taste like a pro: First visit to a winery? Remember the “Five S’s of Winetasting” and no one will ever know: Sight: Examine the clarity and color of the wine; it can tell you about the age, type and body of what’s in your glass. Swirl: Gently roll the wine around in your glass to bring out the aromas.

Sniff: Bring the glass to your nose and breathe in. Try and identify the smells… and the experiences the bouquet brings to mind. Sip: Let the wine pass over your palate. Is it fruity? Sweet? Bitter? Fresh? Savor: A great wine leaves a lasting impression. Engage: Be adventurous and ask questions. Don’t know what to try? Describe the wines you typically enjoy and your server will be happy to suggest a pour that’s likely to please. Sample something you’ve never heard of before and you might just go home with a new favorite. Pace yourself: Don’t try to visit too many wineries in one day—you and your palate will be overwhelmed. Three to five wineries per day is a good benchmark. With more than 45 in our midst, it’s a good idea to plan to stay a few days! Relax, explore and have fun!

Explore the History of Temecula Wine Country 33820 Rancho California Rd. | Temecula 92591 | www.MountPalomarWinery.com | 951.676.5047 Temecula Wine country is Southern California’s underappreciated gem. This beautiful, historic area features dozens of wineries growing everything from Aglianico to Zinfandel, producing a mix of varietals that would make any vintner jealous. A lot of things have changed in Temecula since the first vineyard was founded in 1968, but one winery that has held tight to its history is Mount Palomar Winery on Rancho California Road. The second oldest vineyard and winery to open in Temecula, it still maintains many original buildings and vines, including the original barrel room. This underground sanctuary has been opened to the general public as the winery’s tasting room, creating Temecula’s oldest tasting cave. Mount Palomar Winery opened the oldest outdoor Sherry Solera in the United States in the 1970’s, and still produces their award winning Solera Cream Sherry in the traditional Spanish method – slowly caramelizing in the sun for a rich, complex flavor that wins new awards with every new bottling. Each new winemaker at Mount Palomar has honored the winery’s long traditions in their own way: by planting the only Cortese vines
located in California, creating new signature wine blends, and expanding the original vineyards to a 55 acre planting with dozens of varietals. The newly established onsite restaurant, Annata Bistro/Bar, broke new ground with one of Temecula wine country’s few full service bars, offering day long happy hour specials and unforgettable desserts created by Chef Kevin Cahalan. The bistro is open daily for lunch, offering delectable American fusion dishes for hungry wine lovers and cocktail lovers alike. The winery’s history is reflected in the grounds rustic, old world feel and beautiful plantings. Classic statuary is scattered across the property, along with flowers that bloom year round and fountains. Following the grand staircase from the tasting room patio to the event area, you will be surrounded by magnolia trees and street lamps, leading to an archway of climbing roses connecting the reception area to the wedding ceremony center. This vine surrounded walkway is set on the highest point in Temecula wine country, giving wedding couples and their guests a stunning view while they take their vows. These beautiful event grounds and the winery’s top shelf service have earned Mount Palomar Winery a place in The Knot’s Wedding Hall of Fame, as well as multiple Couple’s Choice Awards from WeddingWire.com. Visiting Mount Palomar Winery in Temecula is your chance to explore Temecula’s history, and sample some of the best wines that Southern California wine country has to offer. EXCLUSIVE OFFER Visit Mount Palomar’s onsite restaurant, Annata Bistro/Bar, Monday – Friday and enjoy a 1/2 price bottle of wine with the purchase of any 2 entrées. Some restrictions apply.

Shawna Sarnowski Photography OLD TOWN The indigenous Luiseño Indians were known for their basket-making. A fountain in front of City Hall commemorates our heritage, emulating a basket in the Luiseño tradition. “The Emigrant Trail” mosaic art, “History of Temecula” mural, and the Old Town arches also provide visual cues to our cultural roots. Festivals celebrating fine domestic arts and crafts line the streets throughout the year. And live performances of theater, symphony and modern music round out the culture of our downtown district. PECHANGA RESORT CASINO Pechanga houses beautiful Luiseño sculptures and ancient artifacts, celebrating the tribe’s heritage—see
them on display throughout the property. While you’re there, check out the awesome entertainment offered at the Pechanga Theater, comedy club and cabaret. AROUND TOWN Ponder public art while feeding turtles and ducks at the Duck Pond located just east of I-15 on Rancho California Road. View the “Singing in the Rain” sculpture, a gift from Denmark; “Letters Home” memorial, commemorating soldiers’ missives from frontlines throughout time; and a Japanese garden. Across town, the Ronald Reagan Sports Park hosts a life-size statue of former president Ronald Reagan.

OUTDOOR RECREATION
OUTDOOR RECREATION HOT AIR BALLOONING A trip to Temecula Valley Southern California Wine Country isn’t complete without a hot air balloon flight over the vineyards at sunrise. Balloon rides are available year-round, weather permitting at sunrise only, due to afternoon and early evening winds. Our annual Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival is the largest ballooning event in California, celebrating this most majestic means of air transport. HIKING Numerous hiking trails provide ample opportunity for novices and expert hikers and trail runners alike. The Santa Rosa Plateau Ecological Reserve is located in the Santa Ana Mountains above Temecula Valley. Its 9,000 acres are filled with Engelmann oak woodlands, riparian wetlands, coastal sage scrub, chaparral, bunchgrass prairie, and vernal pools, as well as more than 200 species of native birds and 49 endangered, threatened or rare animal and plant species.
An especially popular day-hike destination at the Reserve is the Moreno and Machado Adobes. Other popular trails can be found at Lake Skinner and Vail Lake. BIKING Bike trails, whether for casual exploring or serious mountain biking, are available in Temecula Valley. If you didn’t bring your bike, rentals are available! Mountain
bike trails can be found at the Santa Rosa Plateau, and serious cyclists love the hills throughout wine country. Old Town Temecula is bike-friendly and a great stop for a picnic. HORSEBACK RIDING Wine country trails are perfect for horseback riding, or venture up to Vail Lake for breathtaking views of the valley.

Tee up under age-old trees and alongside naturally occurring streams and creeks, challenge yourself with elevation changes, and savor the expansive views beyond the green. Two Temecula Valley courses were designed by the legendary Arthur Hills, and all are open to the public and offer a satisfying round for any skill level, any time of year. Journey at Pechanga
LEGENDARY DESIGN CrossCreek Golf Club, designed by golf legend Arthur Hills, boasts groves of mature oaks and sycamores, rippling creeks and stunning panoramic views. Journey at Pechanga Resort Casino was also designed by Hills. “The grandeur of panoramic vistas, rock outcroppings, stately old oak trees and the mountain edging one side of the course,” Hills says, “became a tapestry on which to weave the strategic aspects of the game of golf in order to evoke the spirit of competition.” Te m e c u l a Va l l e y V i s i t o r G u i d e I 67

NATURAL BEAUTY The Legends Golf Club in the heart of Temecula offers 18 holes, five lakes, a number of doglegs, rolling greens and stroke-stealing bunkers. Temecula Creek Inn’s 27-hole championship golf course comprises more than 300 acres of natural beauty, dramatic elevation changes and majestic mountain views. These and other regional courses provide ample opportunity to bring your A-game when visiting Temecula Valley. GOLF TRAVEL TIPS Whether you’ve traveled to Temecula Valley to play our award-winning courses or you’re a golfer who just happens to be looking for a few rounds while you’re in town, how do you ensure you can find and play the course that’s right for you? Here are some quick tips for achieving the perfect par. Map your itinerary Check the proximity of the courses to where you’re staying or where you’ll be the day you’d like to play to ensure your timing and logistics work. Reserve in advance Book a tee time so you’re sure to be able to play when and where you want to. If you’re thinking of a meal before or after your game, you might want to reserve a table in the restaurant in advance, too.
Give yourself time Arrive at your chosen course with extra time to orient yourself. Get there early enough to perhaps have breakfast or a light lunch at the course, browse the pro shop and clubhouse. Some courses have memorabilia that recall great moments on the course you can strive to re-create! Get a feel for the green Rather than heading straight for the first hole, spend some time at the range and putting greens. Try to get a feel for the speed and contour of the green so you feel more at home when you tee off. Take stock of the scorecard Study the scorecard before your first swing to get an idea of the course layout. The card provides several tips, including where water and other hazards lie. A little mental preparation and a few practice putts go a long way toward making the challenge of an unfamiliar course a lot more enjoyable. Don’t forget to keep your scorecard (or great gift from the pro shop) as a memento of your trip!

CrossCreek Golf Club 43860 Glen Meadows Road | Temecula, CA 92590 | 951-506-3402 | www.crosscreekgolfclub.com The stunning beauty of the Temecula Valley and the legendary design work of Arthur Hills have come together at CrossCreek Golf Club. The result is a pristine Southern California course where great golf is played in a secluded natural environment. Groves of age-old oak and sycamore trees and rippling creeks provide intriguing scenery, which meshes with Hills’ challenging layout to create a haven for exceptional golf. The natural hazards demand careful shot-making. The course features firm, hard to hold fairways, rough-edged bunkers that are difficult to escape, and firm, fast greens that slope away for tricky putts. The par 71 layout runs 6,853 yards from the championship tees, combining length with the array of natural hazards. There are three shorter tee positions that make the course accessible to all levels of player. CrossCreek is open for daily play at affordable rates and offers attractive membership packages for singles and families. They also offer Resident Card and Senior Card programs with outstanding benefits and discounts for local area residents and seniors over 60.
