Damian DoffoDoffo Vineyard & Winery

What do you love about making wine in Temecula Valley? What drew you to the region?

I love representing the region, the comradery with the other winemakers, & the sense of community.

What is your winemaking style/philosophy?

I like to make big fruit forward wines with subtle oak undertones. I believe in treating the fruit very delicately, by only using hand handled fruit. I also triple sort all fruit before going into fermentation tanks.

What is the one thing you want people to know about Temecula wines?

There are incredible wines being made in the valley. And to try different varietals. as we are a region that doesn’t have just one!

What are you excited about when it comes to Temecula Valley’s future?

I think the momentum the valley is gaining as far as being recognized as a quality wine making region.
