This video shows amazing aerial footage of the Kog village and surrounding area in northeastern Slovenia, situated near the country's border with Croatia.  With moderate temperatures and plentiful nearby clean water sources, Kog is known as winery district, with extensive vineyards spread along two ridges.  Contributor and pilot Zurandenis made this unforgettable drone video of the Roka Winery, which is situated in the middle of this spectacular region that was once part of the now-dissolved country of Yugoslavia.  

El Gringo Rojo created this beautiful drone video of Argentina's wine country, which is the heart of the world's fifth largest wine industry.  The state of Mendoza is in west central Argentina, with its western reaches covered by the Andes Mountains.  Runoff from the mountains feeds the Mendoza River, which irrigates the otherwise arid landscape in addition to powering the Portrerillos Dam.  This makes for ideal winegrowing conditions, which is why Mendoza is home to about two-thirds of the country's wine production. 

Tokaj-Hegyalja is one of Europe's most famous wine regions, covering portions of northeastern Hungary and southeastern Slovakia.  The region is noted for its Tokaji sweet wine, which is mentioned in Hungary's national anthem, and which is sourced from six different varieties of grapes grown in the region.  Most of the region is part of a UNESCO World Heritage site called the Tokaj Wine Region Historic Cultural Landscape.  Check out this storied region from above in this drone video by AirVuz contributor Fehér Photography.

Behold this spectacular drone video from contributor Dronographer of the most well known wine region of Austria.  The "Vienna Woods thermal region" stretches from the southern outskirts of Vienna along a hilly chain to the region south of Baden. The vineyards are located at the foothills of the Vienna Woods.  The region is home to about 1300 wine-growing enterprises. The area features ideal grape-growing conditions: cool and dry, with a plentiful nearby supply of high quality freshwater.  

Thedronexperience created this beautiful drone video of the vineyards of Casa Madero. Recognized as one of the best winegrowing areas in Mexico, this beautiful scenery is located in the heart of Parras, a small city in north central Mexico which is one of the major wine growing areas of the country.  It is situated in the southern part the border state of Coahuila.  Parras Coahuila has now earned a place in literature: it was the setting for All the Pretty Horses (1992), Cormac McCarthy's first novel.

Bright and sunny skies, generally moderate winds, and beautiful aerial vineyard and winery views are three reasons why hot air ballooning has always been a big draw in Napa County, California.  This large wine growing center located northeast of San Francisco has many balloons floating over it on a given day, probably as many as any spot in the United States.  In this video, top content creator and pilot SF Drones gives us a drone view of the balloons floating in the crystal blue California sky. 

The Winery Vivacno Museum of Wine Culture is located in the foothills of the Sierra de Cantabria on the banks of the Ebro River in Rioja, Spain. The winery produces Tempranillo, Granciano, Garnacha, and many other delicious grapes and wines.

Pilot Blackwolf_fpv takes his quad through Dinastia Vivanco in this freestyle flight.

Romania is the fifth largest wine producer in Europe and the largest east of Italy.  One of the country's bigger winegrowing areas is an area around Focșani in Vrancea County in the eastern part of the country, where the foothills of the Eastern Carpathians transition to the valley of the Siret River, a Danube tributary.  Contributor T H Neascu used a DJI Spark drone to create this outstanding bird's eye view of the area known as the Tuscany of Romania for its resemblance to the Italian winegrowing region.

Watch out — this FPV freestyle session is a real vine burner.  FPV pilot mrgeeseeks takes us on a cinematic flight through a Napa Valley vineyard in California, USA.  As his quad cuts through lines of grapevines we taste some notes of juicy with a real punch. This FPV flight is just a sampling from this talented pilot. Once you've had a taste, check out his other sweet FPV videos!

AirVuz contributor and drone pilot pablogeno brings us this beautiful aerial view of a winegrowing area in northern Argentina.  It's in the Calchaquí Valley near the town of Cafayate, in the Salta province which occupies much of the northwestern part of the country.  The mild climate and low humidity of the region make for excellent winegrowing conditions, and the valley is home to some of the finest Argentinian vineyards.  It's especially well known for its Torrontés grape varieties.  

Top AirVuz contributor and first person view (FPV) drone pilot HellingerFPV brings us this excellent FPV tour of a winery and vineyard in Ohio.  The Gervasi Vineyard is located in Canton, about an hour south of Cleveland in the north-central part of the state.  Filmed with a GoPro Hero action camera mounted on a five inch quad, the video provides a unique aerial perspective of this impressive property, including a fly-through of a bell tower at the :16 mark.  This video was picked for the FPV Pilots to Watch list in June of 2024.  

The valleys north of San Francisco, California are home to some of the world's most famous wineries and vineyards.  In this excellent drone video by AirVuz contributor travispacheco, you'll be treated to an 11 minute+ aerial tour of two of the most well-known areas in California Wine Country: The Napa and Suisun Valleys.  Napa Valley, the more well-known of the two, has been in the business of cultivating grapes since the mid-19th century, although it's only been since the 1960's that the name has been associated with premium wines.
