SIP, Sip Hooray!

Temecula’s famous SIP Passport just got a fancy upgrade. Now you can snag the SIP Reserve Wine Tasting Passport for $100, giving you VIP access to three reserve tastings at participating wineries.

If you’re more of a classic wine sipper, the original SIP Passport is still up for grabs at $75, offering five standard tastings. It’s like a treasure map for wine enthusiasts!
