Pinnacle Restaurant Opens

at Falkner Winery

(TEMECULA, CA) – The expansion that began a year ago, bore fruit this month as Falkner Winery’s new restaurant, The Pinnacle opened over the Labor Day Weekend.

The Pinnacle’s goal is to surprise guests with reasonably priced food, a nice selection of wines by the glass, and a great Temecula wine country view (served to aid the digestion). The menu will include everything from Ahi appetizers to Black Angus cheeseburgers, to Mediterranean Shrimp with penne.

Chefs E. Dennis van Rumund (Executive Chef) and Cory Chung (Chef de Cuisine) both have prestigious resumes and excellent reputations. Chef Dennis is from the Netherlands and graduated from the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York.
