Julie’s Dream Winery Vineyards & Distillery

A father–daughter estate combining wine, spirits and on-site lodging, with vineyard views and surviving old vines.

Julie’s Dream pairs a 25-acre Temecula estate vineyard with a tasting room, distillery concept and several on-site lodging options. Founded by Jerry and Julie Damewood in 2018, the property preserves a small stand of older vines while focusing on Cabernet-family reds, Syrah and Zinfandel. It is positioned as a relaxed, family- and dog-friendly wine-country stop with live music and special events; because the official site currently publishes conflicting schedules, visitors should verify hours directly.
