Mama Rosa’s Trattoria At Robert Renzoni Vineyards 

If you weren’t already blown away by classic Bordeaux and Italian grape varietals during your tasting at Robert Renzoni’s Vineyards, prepare yourself to be dazzled by Mama Rosa’s Trattoria! Lot’s of Temecula Winery Restaurants serve Italian food, but Mama Rosa’s is the only place where you’ll find a brick oven! The hand tossed pizza here will hit different. If you’re not in the mood for pizza, I suggest trying the tortellini or the stuffed braised short ribs.
