Out of all the beverages that pair brilliantly with cigars, we very rarely talk about wine. Over the last several years the wine industry has absolutely boomed in popularity, and if you haven’t been paying attention, we’re here to tell you that Napa Valley California isn’t the only place to find the best wines in the U.S.

To be completely honest, it feels like most states these days have their own wine region or two. So, the Cigar World team has put together 5 of the top-rated wineries for cigar smokers to enjoy the finer things in life. Oh, and there’s also some rap-rated cigars that pair perfectly with wine as well. Enjoy!

### **Must Visit Winery #5: Tank Garage - Calistoga, California**

I have been to #3&4. Loved them both. Grew up in eastern Oregon until my 40's. Miss all those Walla Walla wineries especially.
