Peltzer Family Cellars

Peltzer Family Cellars operates in Temecula Valley, California's South Coast region, where warm days and cooling maritime influence create conditions suited to both Old World and New World varietals. The winery produces a Syrah that demonstrates the region's capacity for structured, age-worthy reds—a wine that has earned recognition from Wine Enthusiast. A Meritage blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc rounds out the portfolio, alongside a Sangiovese that reflects the winery's range across Mediterranean and Rhône-style expressions. Temecula Valley's elevation and diurnal temperature swings allow for extended hang time, building complexity in fruit-forward wines with balanced acidity and tannin.
