Discovering the wine region of Utah

Utah is a state in the American West, bordering Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Wyoming and Arizona. It has a small wine industry, as well as more well-known distilleries and breweries. Utah is often portrayed in the media as one of the least Alcohol-friendly states in the United States. This largely reflects the Mormon faith's stance on abstinence in the late 19th and 20th centuries.

All wines, spirits, and beers with an alcohol content of more than 4 percent must be sold in state liquor stores, and other means of sale and consumption are tightly controlled. Currently, Utah is much better known in other markets for its whiskeys and beers. There are now a handful of distilleries and more than two dozen craft breweries, which collectively employ about 5,000 people. Park City's High West Distillery was founded in 2006, becoming Utah's first legal still since 1870.
