Welcome to Carpe Travel
The source for wine travel guides
With every 50 states in the United States producing wine, combining a vacation with a visit to wine country has never been easier. I’m Elaine Schoch, an award-winning travel writer, wine judge and certified by the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET).
There are an abundance of wine travel getaways in the United States and around the world. My goal is to help guide all wine lovers – from a novice to an experienced pro – with insider wine country tips, must-visit spots, and things to see beyond the vines.
