Wine Country

Wine aficionados and novices alike appreciate the opportunity to swirl, sniff and taste the wines of vintners on-site at their wineries. Exceptional ambiance and the purveyors' personal knowledge and insight make for a true wine-country experience. Southern California's Ontario is "The Gateway" to enjoying just that year round - in greater Ontario's own Cucamonga Valley.

Nestled here, the local wineries and tasting rooms are truly a living testament to the California wine industry. Local viniculture and wine production, widely recognized as the oldest in the state, began here in the late 1850's. At one time, more than 35,000 acres of vineyards (greater even than the Napa Valley today) stretched throughout the east-west valley where more than five-dozen wineries thrived. Today, still family-owned establishments offer tastings of their award-winning wines with exceptional hospitality.
