Europa Village is excited to open its newest winery, Vienza, nestled amongst 45 acres of rolling hills within Southern California’s Temecula Valley Wine Country.
Drawing inspiration from the Italian countryside, the new oasis transports guests to the traditional villages of Italy through its idyllic charm, character, and relaxing atmosphere.
“The vision for Europa Village has always been to offer guests, visiting from near and far, an opportunity to experience the beauty, flavors, and wines of the old-world villages of Spain, France and Italy,” says Europa Village owner Dan Stephenson.
Vienza celebrates the magic of Italy and features a wine tasting room filled with beautiful varietals, including winter favorites from primitivo or Moscato d’Asti to summer-friendly wines like pinot grigio or Aleatico Rosé or the Metodo Classico Brut which received 99 points, double gold and Best in Show Sparkling at the 2023 CA State Fair.
Experience Europa Village and a Taste of Italy
Guests are encouraged to explore the wine cave and wine-making facility, the barrel room, and much more. Afterwards, shop and dine at the Mercato di Vienza, a charming Italian market, and deli featuring hand-picked items from seasoned and celebrated makers, stone oven pizzas, freshly made pastas, sandwiches, and gelato.
The Mercato will also become the main hub for the Europa Table Culinary Club which offers unlimited access to a library of mouth-watering recipes and chef videos and exclusive access to tasting menus. It is set to host numerous events and happenings, including cooking demonstrations, olive oil tastings, and the opportunity to sample products from noteworthy tastemakers.
The winery at Europa Village also boasts several versatile meeting and event spaces including the 3,500 sq. ft. Tuscany Ballroom with a balcony that overlooks the picturesque Temecula Valley wine country.
On the opposite end of the ballroom sits the Giardino del Cielo or Garden of the Sky, an outdoor garden featuring a large colonnade and fountain for private events or simply enjoying a picnic on the grass.
General manager John Goldsmith says, “We are elated to be entering the next phase of Europa Village with the introduction of Vienza.” He continues, “Vienza has been in the plans for years and this exciting chapter will serve as the largest addition to our European-inspired destination in the heart of Temecula. We look forward to welcoming both new visitors and beloved club members to experience all that Vienza will have to offer.”
Europa Village also transports guests to the traditional villages of Spain and France across their other wineries – Bolero, a Spanish adventure — and C’est la Vie, a French affair. The French fairytale offers everything from ornate shopping experiences to romantic culinary affairs.

Guests also have the option to stay at the newly renovated, The Inn at Europa Village, located on a hilltop hideaway overlooking the vineyards.
Temecula Wine Country has always been regarding as a special place in Southern California which Europa Village wanted to capture in its vision as a multi-winery resort. It is open from 10 am – 5 pm for daily experiences at 41150 Via Europa.
