Our USA Food & Wine Tours
American farmers cultivate the vine in all 50 states. Winemaking in the USA is a story of creative ambition, experimentation, setbacks, and, finally, wild success. Nowhere in the United States has the vinifera vine prospered more than the West Coast, courtesy of the Pacific Ocean’s cooling influence. The combination of climate, terroir, and winemaking talent in California and Oregon today produce Cabernets, Pinot Noirs, Chardonnays, and Sauvignon Blancs equal to their old-world counterparts. Our wine tours in California and Oregon showcase the West Coast’s best wine regions, as well as the dynamic range of gourmet food artisans, farm-to-table restaurants, and stylish accommodations that make the USA’s wine country an indulgent feast for the senses.
Northern California
San Francisco, Sonoma, and Napa Valley are the perfect pairing for a gourmet week of wine tasting, farm-to-table dining, relaxation, and creative renewal in Northern California Wine Country.
Central Coast
Warm, dry Paso Robles and cool, maritime Santa Barbara are the stars of the large Central Coast wine region which boasts some of California's most fashionable wineries.
Oregon
Just south of foodie capital Portland, Oregon’s beautiful Willamette Valley is green, damp, and quite possibly the best place for growing Pinot Noir anywhere outside of Burgundy. Some say it’s better.
West Coast Flavors
In addition to visiting top wine producers, our wine tours in California and Oregon feature cooking classes in the vineyards, plus tastings of gourmet specialties at local organic farms.
