I didn’t expect to find such great wine in Utah, but once I started exploring, I was genuinely impressed. If you’re curious about discovering something new, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised too. Utah has several beautiful vineyards that feel like hidden gems, and I’ve found more than a few wines here that rival bottles from more well-known regions.
Whether you’re drawn to estate wines from small, family-run vineyards like I am, or you’re in the mood to try something different—like a honey wine made with local ingredients—you’re going to find plenty to enjoy. I’ve always had an easy time finding bottles that fit my taste, and I believe you will too. Sometimes, all it takes is one visit to a tucked-away tasting room to find a new favorite.
