WINERY "BIO" TEXT PROVIDED FROM: www.doffowines.com

Slightly off the beaten path, on Rancho California Road, just a little bit past Wilson Creek Winery, lies Doffo Winery, the first petite winery in Temecula's newest wine region. This family winery situated on 15 acres of vineyards has one of the two historical landmark school houses of the region, giving the property a unique character and country charm. Purchased in 1997 by Marcelo Doffo, a man of strong passion for life, italian blood and chaser of his dreams. He created the most incredible strong character wines of the Temecula Valley.

Winemaking

At Doffo Winery our focus is on producing small lot, hand crafted wines that represent some of the best varietals in the Temecula Valley wine growing region. We strive to create intensely flavored wines of complex structure, texture and bold, rich fruit. The unique micro climate and our care for the wine at our small family vineyard is reflected in our wines. We play classical music in the vineyard to soothe the plants.

Our philosophy

Our philosophy has always been that good winemaking begins in the vineyard. With meticulous care and cultivation we produce intense, rich fruit that truly expresses our commitment towards making world class wines. At Doffo Winery, we prune our vines and thin our grape clusters throughout the growing season to maximize fruit concentration and insure the highest quality in our grapes.
