VacationIdea – Wine is revered all over the globe and has been enjoyed for thousands of years. Highly popular due to its unique flavors and notes, wine can vary greatly from one region to the next, or even simply from one vineyard to the next. Wine is grown all over the world, with plenty of high-quality wines being grown in the United States.
California is known as America’s leading wine-producing state, but wine is also grown in places like Colorado. Colorado wine has been produced since the late 1800s and is grown in the Grand Valley AVA and West Elks AVA, with most vineyards being situated on the western slope of the Rocky Mountains and along the Front Range.
