Abstract:
North Carolina is now one of the best places in the country to enjoy wine. As the wine industry has grown since 2000 with double the acres of grape vines and triple the wineries, wine tourism has also grown. An estimated 800,000 tourists come to North Carolina for the wine each year, with an economic impact of $813 million.
