Thrillist: Forget Napa, Temecula Is the Underrated Wine Region to Visit this Summer

By Mary Beth Abate, and Ben Mesirow

Akash Winery opened their tasting room in 2019, but for the Patel family, the dream of owning their own vineyard goes back more than two decades. Now they produce two different lines, in partnership with celebrated winemaker Renato Sais. The estate wines include a variety of grapes grown on-site, while their Dreamville Wines are collaborative products using varietals not currently grown on the Akash estate. The winery itself doesn’t offer food, but they do host rotating food vendors, as well as Brew Boyz Tacos during the week.
