Accessibility Statement

Temecula Pour is built to be usable by as many visitors as possible, including people using screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, voice control, or browser zoom. We target the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at Level AA as our working standard. We don't claim full, certified compliance — no site can honestly claim that with certainty — but it's the bar we build and check against.

What's actually in place

• Text and background color combinations are checked against WCAG's 4.5:1 contrast minimum for normal text, not just eyeballed.
• Every image carries descriptive alt text; purely decorative duplicates (like the enlarged version of an image already described nearby) are marked so screen readers don't repeat themselves.
• Visible keyboard focus outlines on every interactive element, and a "Skip to content" link for keyboard users to bypass the header on every page.
• Form controls — the filters on the Wineries page, in particular — use real <label> and <fieldset>/<legend> elements, not just styled text near an input.
• Motion respects prefers-reduced-motion — smooth scrolling and transitions turn off automatically if your system requests it.
• The illustrated winery map has a full text-based directory underneath it, so the information isn't locked inside an image or an interactive map for anyone who can't use either.
• Dark mode follows your operating system's setting automatically.

Known limitations

The interactive map on the Map page is a third-party embed (Leaflet, with OpenStreetMap tiles) and isn't fully screen-reader navigable on its own — that's what the text directory beneath it is for. Individual winery pages also embed a Google Maps location frame, which follows Google's own accessibility implementation, not ours.
