When you think about Arizona, wine might not be the first thing that comes to mind. However, Arizona wine makers such as Arizona Stronghold and Pillsbury Wine Company have been making strides in getting Arizona wines on the map. In fact, today there are a dozen vineyards and more than 60 wineries located throughout the state. The best part? Many are just a day trip away from Phoenix.

Tip: If you're looking for a more local stop, sip and sample at Peoria's Winery 101, home to Gallifant Cellars and Southpaw Cellars.
