Napa Valley isn't the only travel destination in the United States for a good glass of wine. While California's wine country is known for being a top winery destination (and also home to the award-winning bottle of Chardonnay that won top honors at the Judgment of Paris competition in 1976), wine connoisseurs no longer have to travel all the way to California for a good winery experience.

With such a booming industry and a plethora of wineries to choose from, how does a vino-lover know if a winery is worth it?

Some wineries even offer cellar tours with glimpses into their winemaking process. Of course, the ambiance is a big draw.
