Day Trips from Major Cities

Involving authentic wine experiences in your travel plans is something that many people dream of and it's actually pretty easy.  I'm not specifically talking about having a great bottle at a top restaurant, which just requires a reservation.  I'm thinking about an intimate visit to a producing winery, a negoçiant or winery tasting room on the property or in the nearest village.

Tacking on a Day Trip

Almost every major city has a wine region within quick striking distance.  This isn’t hyperbole – you can visit a producer within a few hours drive of most major cities:

  • San Francisco

    Napa Valley, Sonoma, Carneros, San Luis Obispo and many more…

  • Paris

    Loire to the West, Bourgogne to the East, Champagne to the North and many, many more to the South.

  • Frankfurt & Bonn

    A little thing called the Rhein features incredible wine, but the amazing Mosel is close by.

  • Austin

    We are becoming a world class destination. The road to Fredericksburg is an incredible wine trail with purpose-built tasting rooms and entertainment facilities designed for wine enthusiasts.

  • Portland, Oregon

    Head east into Willamette Valley and enjoy Burgundy and Alsatian varietals.

  • Barcelona

    Cava anyone?

  • London

    Champagne for quality sparkling wine producers an easy day trip south of London.

  • Cape Town

    It literally has it’s own named region within the city boundaries as of 2017, but great Pinotage, Cabernet Sauvignon in Stellenbosch is not far!

  • Vienna

    Another city with it’s own wine region and multiple great wine regions nearby.

  • Any Italian City

    Florence, Rome, Milan, Venice…  There are so many producers nearby that you might be slightly overwhelmed.  Take an extra weekend when travelling here.  Or an extra week or two!

  • Sydney

    Hunter Valley isn’t too far and there are many more nearby.

  • Melbourne

    Yarra Valley and many more.
