California is the home to big, established and very famous wineries and new, lesser known vineyards alike. Niebaum-Coppola Estate winery, Domaine Chandon, Beaulieu Vineyards and Beringer Vineyards are some of the more popular and historic wineries that have brought international attention to California wine country tours. Robert Mondavi is regarded as the father of California wine. Mondavi used novel techniques in winemaking to produce high quality wines, which has garnered chateau a worldwide interest in Napa Wine Country Tours.

Domain Chandon is prominent for its premium sparkling wines. In 1970’s a champagne house from France, decided to start making sparkling wines in Napa Valley using the French traditional techniques. This instituted Domain Chandon and it produced its first vintage wine in 1976. Today, the winery is famous for its majestic landscaped grounds and architecture apart from sparkling wines. During the last seven years at least 120 wineries have opened within the combined regions that constitute the California Wine Country. Fascinated by its lavish winemaking custom, soil, and temperature, new vineyard owners and winemakers and a new generation of winegrowers give rise to this California Country wine resurgence.
