While many of us assume California's Napa Valley is the country's top destination for wine and vineyards, fabulous wineries exist all over the country. Next time you're planning a trip, consider a wine tour or tasting at any of these five wine regions. 

Finger Lakes, New York
Just north of New York City, you'll find some of the best wineries in America. Finger Lakes is known for beautiful state parks and award-winning sparkling wines. Take the Seneca Lake Wine Trail and check some of the 30 wineries around Seneca Lake. 

Temecula, California
Napa Valley isn't the only wine destination in California. The West Coast is filled with tons of great wine towns, including Temecula. Grapes grow in abundance in the town, thanks to a climate similar to Spain's. Over 30 wineries call the city home. Festivals are always taking place, creating a lively environment. 

Walla Walla, Washington
Travel a little further up the West Coast to hit Walla Walla, Washington. Walla Walla has recently become a popular wine destination with plenty of wineries and beautiful scenery of the Blue Mountains. Stop by Walla Walla Vintners on Fridays and Saturdays for free wine tastings of the renowned red wines. This winery was one of the first to open in Washington. 

Long Island, New York
You might not think of vineyards when you think of Long Island, but this New York town is home to plenty of small vineyards producing excellent wines. Most of the wines are unique to the area and can't be found in the grocery store. If you're looking for a rare vintage, check out the wineries on Long Island, like Sparkling Pointe. 

Palisade, Colorado
Many of the wineries here use local fruits in the wine for a light and delicate taste. Take a trip in the warmer months to enjoy a delicious glass of wine in Palisade. Make sure you stop by Plum Creek Winery. This winery has been dedicated to only using Colorado grown grapes for over 20 years.
