At Chandon in Yountville, sustainability is built into the very architecture. The winery was set into the hillside to tread lightly on the land, preserving native oaks and using materials like native stone and Douglas fir to blend into its surroundings. Smart design goes further behind the scenes: agrotechnology monitors vine and soil moisture so the estate replaces only the water lost to evapotranspiration, while its gardens have been replanted with drought-tolerant native grasses and succulents. In the Napa Valley, it is a quiet, considered example of green thinking in every detail.

Some landscapes you feel before you understand them, and Casablanca Valley is one of them. Barely an hour from Santiago, morning fog rolls in from the Pacific and lingers over the vines, letting Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah ripen slowly into wines of aromatic precision and mineral clarity.

The wineries here reward attention rather than demanding it, from Casas del Bosque to the experimental blends of Bodega RE. Minutes away, the painted hillsides and sea air of Valparaiso call for exactly those cool, mineral whites. In this corner of Chile, the pairing feels less like gastronomy and more like geography.

What are wine travellers really looking for? In the Douro, the answer is not bigger experiences but deeper ones. A weekend from Porto into the terraced valley is an invitation to slow down, from the warm, instinctive hospitality of Casa do Santo in Provesende to a village bakery that has fired its wood oven for more than eighty years. Add unhurried conversations at the Cafe Central and a memorable tasting menu at O Forno de Jales, and a pattern emerges. Here, wine may inspire the trip, but it is the people, the places and the rhythm of everyday life that turn moments into memories.

At Weinzuhause, a short drive from Mainz, hotelier Stefanie Wild has a simple goal: to make every guest feel truly at home. The name is a gentle play on words in German, echoing 'my home', and the welcome lives up to it. A trained hotel specialist and certified wine ambassador for Rheinhessen, Stefanie brings the region to life by pairing its wines with everything from outdoor yoga to singing bowls, always in the service of a genuine experience rather than just a tasting. As she puts it, 'wine brings people together'. In Mainz | Rheinhessen, that spirit is the whole point.

Terre di Pietra began with Laura's dream of viticulture, and today it is carried on by Cristiano, Anna and Alice as a true family story. Set in the hills of Valpolicella near Verona, this winery and farm places biodiversity and permaculture at the heart of everything it does, farming in a natural and ethical way. A visit here is more than a tasting: guests are welcomed into the agricultural and social life of the estate, getting closer to its history through the wine and the land and in Verona, it is wine tourism grown with care.

What do today's wine travellers really want? According to a 2024 Switzerland Tourism survey, 44% of visitors hope to enjoy a wine experience on holiday, and their idea of the perfect one goes well beyond a tasting. They are looking for winery visits paired with regional gastronomy, authentic encounters with winemakers and breathtaking scenery.

In Lausanne, that translates into tastings with growers, cultural wine experiences and vineyard walks with a picnic. The lesson for wine regions everywhere is a warm one: connection and authenticity are what turn a visit into a lasting memory.

In South Australia, great wine is only ever at arm's length, and the events calendar makes the most of it. Home to 80 per cent of Australia's premium wine, the state pairs 680 wineries and 340 cellar doors with a festival scene that knows how to draw a crowd. This April, the Australian Football League Gather Round brought a record 270,000 fans to the state, with two matches set among the vineyards of the Barossa Valley. Add the Adelaide Hills' Winter Reds, Coonawarra's Cabernet Celebrations and the wine-and-comedy of Grapes of Mirth, and the recipe is clear: spoil visitors with choice, city and regions alike.

Every Great Wine Capital is shaped by the people who champion it, and in Hawke's Bay, few do so with more warmth than Kris Larner.

Manager of Porters Boutique Hotel in Havelock North and Chair of the Hawke's Bay Tourism Industry Association, Kris is known for the collaborative spirit she brings to the region, connecting wine producers, hospitality and conservation. For her, wine tourism reaches well beyond the cellar door, encouraging visitors to stay longer, explore further and return again. Fittingly, her own family roots in the region stretch back to the 1860s.

Wine tasting has never felt this playful. At Bottle Shock in Gumeracha, the team behind Unico Zelo and the popular Bottle Shock channel has turned the often-intimidating world of wine into gamified blind tasting flights that are fun, engaging and genuinely educational. There is no brand bias here, just a welcoming space for everyone from the curious first-timer to the seasoned enthusiast. In the Adelaide Hills, this is wine tourism with a sense of humour and a serious commitment to doing things well.

In Mendoza, the city and the vineyard are never far apart. Leave the tree-lined avenues of downtown and, barely twenty minutes later, the first rows of vines appear with the Andes rising on the horizon. From the historic wineries of Chacras de Coria to the century-old cellars of Maipu and the mountain estates of the Uco Valley, the countryside and the city are part of the same story, connected by the acequias that carry water to the vines and olive groves. When the sun sets behind the Andes, it is hard to remember where one ended and the other began.
