Santa Barbara CA
The Central California wine country, where the cult film Sideways was set, has been declared the next great American wine region by many, including Robert Parker Jr. With almost 100 wineries, Santa Barbara County is one of the fastest-growing wine centers in the world, with a focus on Chardonnay, Syrah and Pinot Noirs. The Santa Barbara Vintners Association (www.sbcountywines.com) offers suggested routes and maps. For those who want to combine eco-tourism with wine tasting, Sustainable Vine Wine Tours (www.sustainablevine.com) are a green way to tour the vineyards.
