The Okanagan region has over 131 wineries, more than 8,000 acres of vineyard and broad range of wines that make it one of the greatest wine touring experiences in the world. The Magazine credits the Okanagan region for its B.C. wineries for opening on-site restaurants, focusing on locally sourced ingredients, seasonal menus and panoramic views. Cited are Miradoro at Tinhorn Creek, Old Vines at Quails\u2019 Gate, Terrafina at Hester Creek and Burrowing Owl\u2019s Sonora Room.<\/p>\n

There are three U.S. destinations on the list: Finger Lakes, N.Y., Orlando, Fla., and Mendocino, Calif. Rounding out the list are Piedmont, Italy; Hawkes Bay, N.Z.; Rhone Valley, France; Galicia, Spain; Loire Valley, France; and Istria, Croatia.<\/p>\n
