One of the many attractions drawing visitors to California is its vast wine country. Thousands of acres in northern California produce grapes for making nearly every variety of wine. Among the critics, much of what California's vintners create is on par with fine wines from all around the world. If you live in or are visiting the Sacramento area, you'll have around 200 wineries, all within a day trip's distance, to choose from. There is a bevy of wine tours that can take from the Sacramento area.

Some of the benefits of taking a private wine tour, according to SWNLT, include being able to select what wineries and vineyards you want to see, all-inclusive pricing, selecting your tour times and receiving a more inside look at the workings of wine country.
