Learn about some of the wine producing regions and some of the vineyards and wineries in these regions. This article covers 6 different wineries in 6 different wine producing regions in the United States. And as you may have guessed, there are some from California mentioned in this article. What article that talks about wineries would leave out California?
For centuries now, vintners and great wine makers have been
tirelessly fermenting grapes, other fruits and flowers to
produce the wine that is served at feasts, parties and dinner
tables. Cultivating an appreciation of wine is a growing trend
in the US. Shops specializing in wine are appearing throughout
the country, not just in the traditional vineyard regions of
California, Oregon, and Virginia.
People who may not have grown up around wine are now drawn not only to sampling but also to collecting it. Tasting parties and special wine pairing events are a common theme in restaurants and in the home. With this comes an increase in interest in home storage. While proper
storage can help wines become even more exquisite, improper
storage can lead to ruined wine. There are thousands of
varieties or types of wine to choose from. White, sparkling, red
or rose wine are just some of the "colors" that you can choose
from.
Wine making is a very lucrative venture because there is a
worldwide market. France, Italy, Australia, Spain, Chile and the
United States have their share of the worldwide market and are
the leading countries which export and produce wine.
Meanwhile, South Africa, Argentina, Portugal and Germany aren't
far behind.
California is the state which boasts the most of wine producers
in the US. Vineyards are mostly found in Sonoma Valley,
Monterey, Paso Robles, Santa Ynez and Napa Valley.
Here are just some of the popular wine makers in the country:

Vineyards and Winery produces the best wine out of quality
grapes. With Chambourcin grapes, a Nouveau-like wine is aged and
