10 Memorable Wines for Memorial Day

              Gaia on the island of Santorini, Greece had one of the most memorable tasting settings


Wine-Knows has visited more than 25 wine-making countries around the globe.  We've tasted tens of thousands of wines since the first group we took to Europe in 1978.  Selecting a mere ten is a near impossible task, however, we’ve managed to narrow it down.   Nine are wineries; one is an actual wine region.  If you’ve visited any of them with us you’ll understand why they made it on this blog.   (Listed in alpha order by country.)

 Argentina's Catena Zapata: most memorable architecture


                              Austria's Domaine Ott: most memorable Gruner Veltliners


             Chile's Montes:  most memorable mountain top setting for a private dinner 


     France's redecorated Chateau Beychevelle:  most memorable place to sleep in Bordeaux


                                 Italy's  Ferghettina:  most memorable sparkling wine in Italy 


                        New Zealand's Valli vineyards:  most memorable winemaker dinner


Portugal's Douro Valley:  most memorably beautiful wine region
