2. Chateau Ste. Michelle

Further up the Pacific coastline in the Columbia Valley region, you’ll find Chateau Ste. Michelle--the oldest winery in Washington state. Look for bright, fruity flavors but with high acidity and delicate intensity.

3. Veuve Clicquot

If you’re looking for a great sparkling wine or champagne, look no further than this French vineyard founded in 1772. Veuve Clicquot is named for the widow who changed the art of champagne production and built one of the most prestigious vineyards in the world.

4. Chateau Lafite-Rothschild

Pauillac in the Haut Medoc district of Bordeaux is famous for its powerful, tannic red wines, and Chateau Lafite-Rothschild is singular among them. The brand is known for dark reds that incorporate the flavors of cedar, black currants and spice. They soften with age.

5. Concha y Toro

Chile’s largest winery sits in the Maipo Valley region near Santiago, where rich sun and cool breezes keep the grapes soft and fruity. Try a cabernet or sauvignon blanc.
