California |  | Napa Valley Wineries
Today Napa Valley features more than 450 wineries that grow many grape varieties including Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot, Zinfandel and other popular varietals. While some winemakers produce wines from specific AVAs within the valley, the majority choose to blend or cuvée their wines using a mixture of wine from grapes grown on the valley floor and the surrounding hillsides.

Sonoma County's large number of AVAs (13) reflect the wide variety of climate and soil conditions in the County, the large production in the County, and the prominence of Sonoma County in the wine market. The difference in climate and soil or terroir means that cooler climate grapes grow well in certain regions and in others warm climate grapes are more suitable. View Sonoma County Wineries

Known for cool and windy conditions, Monterey is ripe for producing coastal varietals such as Chardonnay, Syrah, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir and much more. We recommend this region to get away from "hustle and bustle" of the busier grapegrowing regions as Monterey is one of our favorite destinations to explore small family wine producers and great local food faire.

The Seneca Lake located in the Finger Lakes AVA wine region is often compared to the Rhine wine growing region of Germany. Riesling , one of the most important commercial grape varietals grown in Germany, is also one of the most successful grape varieties grown in the Finger Lakes AVA. Viticulturists in the Finger Lakes region grow a wide variety of grapes besides Riesling, including other European Vitis vinifera grapes, native American grapes, as well as French-American hybrid varieties. |  | Cayuga Lake Wineries
The one characteristic that separates this region from others is the fact that the hillsides are saturated with shale soils on the western side of Cayuga Lake providing a distinct character of the wines from the area. Also the steep hillsides aide in producing a micro-climate in autumn that helps extend the growing season by preventing cold air from settling and producing frost. | Descriptions courtesy of Wikipedia |
