Explore some of the most underrated wine countries to visit that are both beautiful and price-conscious. Take a look!

Canada

You may only think of the United States when it comes to wine in North America, but you’re missing out if you ignore Canada.

South Africa

Many people glance over South Africa for the European countries nearby. But it’s not one to forget about—there, you enjoy an exciting culture, stunning views, and delicious wine. Not sure where to go or what to drink? There are plenty of South African wine resources to explore to learn more about specific regions!

Check out this region: Paarl District
Croatia

Another underrated wine country to visit that’s overlooked by its neighbors is beautiful Croatia. Come for the nature; stay for the wine! Head to Istria, Dalmatia, and Slavonia for budget-friendly wines and some of the most breathtaking scenery in the world. Medieval cities in the backdrop? Move over, Italy!

Austria

Austria—an underrated wine region in many people’s minds—is actually full of history and class. Each region within the country has its own character.

Whether you choose Vienna or Burgenland, you’re sure to taste some scrumptious gruner veltliner and other lovely whites and reds.
