BC's Okanagan Among CNN's Great Undiscovered Wine Regions




Burgundy, Napa Valley, Marlborough, Tuscany: true wine fans have probably already ticked the great grape regions off their lists. Thankfully, these days, there are even more wine worlds to conquer. Recent years have seen new or lesser-known vineyards produce outstanding vintages that are redrawing the wine map. From Myanmar, Canada, to Portugal, here are some hidden and beautiful wine locations ripe for exploring.

Situated in British Columbia and a four-hour drive from bustling Vancouver, the Okanagan Wine Region is the perfect place to do a bike tour through a vineyard. The Fairview Trail Network is a 6.2 mile loop that begins at Tinhorn Creek Winery, where it's possible to bike through the vineyards and Fairview Townsite, a former Gold Rush town. Afterwards, enjoy wine tasting at a number of vineyards with a view of lovely rolling hills.
