Cheers to Monterey County and Its Growing Reputation as a Premier Wine-Producing Region

Monterey County named one of Wine Enthusiast Magazine's Ten Best Wine Travel Destinations of 2013. 

Our county was only one of three in the nation to make this worldwide list -- beating out both Napa and Sonoma Valley. 

"Monterey County is one of California’s premier wine-producing regions, but it also has long been a destination for travelers. It has beautiful scenery, including Big Sur, the 17-Mile Drive and the Pebble Beach golf courses. It has the tourist venues of Cannery Row and Fisherman’s Wharf. It has the upscale galleries and bistros of Carmel-by-the-Sea. In short, Monterey has diverse draws for wine-oriented visitors. Glamorous resorts dot the county, featuring world-class cuisine, stellar local wines and full spas that pamper with style. The city of Monterey is only about 100 or so miles from downtown San Francisco, making it an easy detour for a multiday trek. "
