About Mount Palomar Winery
Mount Palomar is one of Temecula's true originals: founded in 1969 by broadcasting pioneer John Poole, it ranks among the valley's first wineries and famously maintained a Solera-method Cream Sherry program, a rarity anywhere in California, alongside Mediterranean varieties on its hilltop estate.
