Does this help?

"Although wine is produced in all 50 states, this production is
dominated by three states: California (90%), New York (5%), and
Washington (3%). Thus less than 3% of U.S. wine is produced in the
other 47 states..."

Hawaii:

"The sweet delights of the Hawaiian Islands can be found in our own
award-winning Macadamia Nut Honey Wine. This light, clear wine is
created from luxurious honey taken from the blossoms of our island?s
macadamia nut trees, and transformed into an after dinner treat that
is sure to drench the senses in the sweetness of honey. Serve this
specialty wine well-chilled with your favorite dessert, and enjoy your
luscious evening. Winner of the Bronze medal for at the 2003 Riverside
International Wine Competition."

Alaska:

"A winery in Alaska? Where do you grow your grapes? 

These are the first reactions we get from people that hear about us.
Yes we do have a Winery in Homer, Alaska. It is located on Bear Creek
Drive overlooking beautiful Kachemak Bay and the Glaciers beyond.

Although we do not grow grapes here, we do grow, pick and process some
of the best berries in the world. Along with our signature (and very
popular!) Raspberry-Rhubarb wine we make Blueberry, Raspberry, Wild
Cranberry Wine, Fireweed Honey Wine (wow!), an amazing Strawberry Wine
and lots and lots of Rhubarb wine. These wines are all made from
locally-grown ingredients."

This was an interesting and enjoyable question to research! I confess
that it gave me a hankering for my favorite inexpensive wine, which
comes from Arkansas. I'd like to put in an endorsement for Wiederkehr
wines. They are not costly, and they are not rare. But they are very
tasty. Wiederkehr sparkling wines were served instead of champagne at
my wedding reception on July 4, 1980. Tomorrow I'll have another glass
to celebrate my 26th anniversary. Drink Wiederkehr: it makes your
marriage last a long, long time. ;-)

If I ever come across any type of Arkansas wine I will certainly try it.

Many thanks for the five stars and the lavish tip!

Wiederkehr wines......Hummmm, let me think....I bought a case of the
Niagara last year and my Stepmother just was here from Germany for my
wedding last month. She lives in the ever-so-popular Mosel-Saar-Ruwer
area of Germany where some of the world's finest wines are produced
and fell in love with this rather inexpensive yet great tasting wine!
It's a pity that Kentucky is a "felony" state where we cannot have
this wine sent to us. I'm down to my last bottle and need to acquire
more of the Niagara but need to find out how to get it sent here. Any
help from out there???? Short of driving to Ohio or Missouri, that
is.....
