When it rains, it pours.  Especially in the case of national coverage for the other 46 states of late.  In a new article published online in the travel section of CNN, 4 Wine Country Contenders, Virginia and Missouri wine regions are recommended.

The Hermann Wine Trail includes six wineries on a 20-mile stretch along the Missouri River between Hermann and New Haven, Missouri.

The region has been producing vintages since the 1840s, before Napa had produced a single bottle.

A wine region becoming a fixture on the national scene, Charlottesville, Virginia, continues to receive praise.

Virginia’s premier wine country, dotted with working farms and over 1,000 acres of grape vines, spreads out around the city of Charlottesville in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Promising character and great wine, Walla Walla Valley, Washington and Anderson Valley, California are also mentioned.  To read the complete article, click here.
