The vineyards planted in San Diego were still used for sacramental wines when the first commercial wineries were started in the San Gabriel Valley.

There are a few wineries in San Diego County around, as well as about 20 in the Temecula area (Riverside County).

FWIW, I grew up in Pasadena & remember the 3+/- hr. drive to Riverside....past countless vinyards (& a slew of old car museums - all featuring A. Hitler's car) back in the 50's.
