Just a decade ago, Michelle and Sherman Thacher drove down from Santa Cruz to attend a wedding at the historic Kentucky Ranch in Westside Paso Robles, California. Already in love with the area, they were taken with the charm of this classic country horse ranch, and when it went up for sale several months later they promptly sealed their destiny. Today, Kentucky Ranch is home to the couple’s young family and Thacher Winery.

Standing atop a low-lying hill in the heart of Temecula Valley, California wine country, Falkner Winery warmly greets guests with a gracious blend of exceptional wines and genuine hospitality.

The stunning winery was founded just 12 years ago by Loretta and Ray Falkner. The couple, who both came from successful business careers, decided from the beginning that they would focus on producing wines of superior quality. With the help of Winemaker Steve Hagata, they are doing just that. Falkner wines are soft, approachable, and readily drinkable. They see plenty of barrel time—in fact, most of the reds age at least three years before their release.
