The Spittoon List - Part 1: Regions


The Spittoon List... Part 1: Regions


The idea of The Spittoon List is to write down the wines and wine regions that you want to drink and visit before you die. It's a challenge to yourself to fulfill the items on your list... anyway you can. Maybe you can't purchase a bottle of 2005 CH Mouton Rothschild, but you can purchase a ticket to Bordeaux tasting at your local fine wine shop. Any way you can...


Here's our list: The Regions

  • France - Bordeaux

  • France - Burgundy

  • Italy - Tuscany

  • Italy - Piedmont

  • Chile - Central Coast

  • Australia - McLaren Valley

  • Australia - Barossa Valley

  • Argentina - Mendoza

  • USA - Santa Barbara

  • Canada - Nova Scotia

Regions that we have already been able to visit:

  • France - Alsace

  • USA - Napa Valley

  • USA - Sonoma Valley

  • Canada - Okanagan Valley

  • Canada - Niagara Peninsula

What's on your list?
