When abundant sunshine mixes with grapes grown in soil that's similar in composition to the earth in Italy’s Piedmont region, you get Georgia's distinctive wines. And when those vintages mix with scenic views of mountains and winding country roads, you get a wine trail that's becoming increasingly popular to explore. VIP Southern Tours lets oenophiles and novice wine drinkers alike discover the Unicoi Wine Trail during half- and full-day winery tours.

VIP Southern Tours' air-conditioned bus whisks tour-goers to three or four of North Georgia's most popular tasting venues, where they can sample glasses of wine, learn more about the winemaking process, and relax while taking in mountain views. As they ride in the 12- or 14-passenger vehicle, guests learn a little about points of interest along the way. Full-day tours come with a gourmet picnic lunch; both tours include water on the bus.
