Where Grapes and Pineapples Mix
In the United States most folks will agree without hesitation that the Napa Valley is the nation's eminent wine region. It doesn't mean necessarily the most fun though. This might perhaps fall instead to Hawaii, which has two wineries CNN/AP points out are quite entertaining to visit. A laid back experience, reflective of the Hawaiian lifestyle, Tedeschi Vineyards and Volcano Winery bill themselves as places the non-experienced wine lover won't feel intimidated by. One of the most interesting things is that they blend local ingredients, such as pineapple, into some of the wines they produce.

I go to Tedeschi Vinyards every time I'm in Maui. The Ulupalakua Ranch is amazing, with a giant camphor tree out front (stop and give a broken twig a smell). The people are friendly (who wouldn't be) and the wine tasting has always been free. I have such a good time there, I almost always come home with at least one bottle, but usually for the memory more then the taste.
