1. France

After the French kiss, French wine is the most discussed part of France and is often regarded as one of the best wines to lure your taste buds. Sure, the country has ten major wine areas overall, whether you need to sip red, white or even rose. Each region specialises in its wine production category, such as if you need white wine, then Alsace in the east area is the one for you. Or, if you are a red wine lover like me, then indulge yourself in the outstanding vineyards of Beaujolais. Nevertheless, whichever region you are in, you will get a sip of red and white both!

2. Spain

One of the finest wine-producing countries has always been in contention with the French countryside in delivering the best quality of the wine. Having over millions of vineyards, but sure it produces less than its wine-producing competitors. The rich, shiny and red wine with a smooth texture to fill up your taste whenever you desire. If you wonder where you should taste the alluring perfect red wine, the La Rioja and Priorat are some of the most budgeted and affordable wines that are naturally flavoured.

3. United States

Did you know the USA is the fourth-largest wine-producing country in the world? California is one of the most temperate regions to get a perfect and smooth glass of wine. Yes, the area had a few problematic wildfires that the world can never forget. If you are setting up to visit the region, you must not miss the country’s most famous wine area, called Napa Valley, set in the north of California. Of course, did I forget the Sonoma region with astonishing and mind-blowing sceneries? You can taste all the famous wines over there, ranging from Shiraz, Pinot Noir, Cabernets, Nebbiolo, and many more.

 4. Argentina

Argentina might be famous for many things, while one of them is the tastiest wine. If you are a wine lover, then Argentina is the place that you must never miss to visit to try out all the wines available. Being one of the fifth largest wine areas, it has stunning outdoors, sceneries and landscapes that give you the ultimate pleasure of enjoying every sip of your wine. Mendoza is the area where you need to settle your feet down to explore a unique wine series. Of course, if you are still into the traditional times, you can find varieties like Criolla Grande and Cereza. Though San Juan is a dry region, do not miss the blissful Syrah, Brandies, Sherry and Douce Noir.

Australia is the perfect wine country to explore and sip your way through every type of wine variety. Whether it is South Wales or Barossa Valley, you can find all your favourite wines under a single roof. Well, you can find all those well-known wines in the cooler regions of the country.
