Travel is the perfect opportunity to take a well-earned break. But, it’s not just lazing around in a cabana with a mojito that we usually crave. With the hectic modern lives we lead, we tend to get bored after a day and need a bit more pizazz.<\/p>\n
You want to return feeling rested and rejuvenated, but knowing that you also did something productive and memorable. I mean really you have to have some killer stories to brag about to your mates back in the office when you return.<\/p>\n
It’s no surprise then that wine getaways are high on people’s list, especially overworked mothers!<\/p>\n
Trust me, there is nothing I like to brag about more than a trip to the vineyards: wine, cheese, conversations, bike rides, and perhaps a little spa love thrown in.<\/p>\n
Check out our tips on how you can plan the perfect vineyard visit to have the chillaxed fun you are searching for.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The first step in planning your vineyard visit is selecting a wine-making region that sparks your interest.<\/p>\n
European countries, like France and Italy, along with the southern continent of Australia and the western coast of America, are world-renowned for their superior wine production.<\/p>\n
In the United States, all fifty states produce wine, but California produces more than five times the number of vintages than the next three wine-producing states combined. Washington, Oregon, New York, Texas and Virginia produce many wine variations, but these vintages generally appear only in local restaurants and stores, which is another great reason to visit wineries on your vacations.<\/p>\n
