"Then she smiled at me and put her hand in mine. And poured another cup of wine, sweet California wine." -Bobby Glodsboro, 1972
Carefully curated by Water & Wines very own sommelier, the Californian Wine Puzzle highlights the main wine-producing regions and key grape varieties. The box also features our Californian grape profiles which describe the main characteristics and aromas in the region, plus lots of food pairing tips! Illustrated by hand, our design was first hand-drawn and then attentively reviewed with the help of some of the top sommeliers in the world.
More than a puzzle, you will learn about wine of course, but also about California geography as you start playing your way into the world of wine.

In 2019, four puzzle enthusiasts had an idea. After discovering what was a shared frustration in their inability to find a puzzle they could not wait to tackle, these four women started tossing around the idea of creating their own puzzles. These women, who also happen to be related, not only love to puzzle, but they love a challenge — especially competing against each other. The idea evolved while on a family vacation, where of course a puzzle was in tow, and the initial framework of what was soon to become — Puzzledly was developed. They each envisioned vibrant, artful puzzles of the highest quality. They imagined reaching for the untapped puzzle potential that was just not available in the market at that time. They pictured other families sharing a similar bonding experience when building together, complete with colorful stories and belly laughs.
Over the span of 6 months, they searched high and low for the perfect images, eye-catching shades, and stylish designs for their jigsaw puzzles. When their first shipment arrived they could not wait to break their first set of 5 puzzles open. 3 puzzlers set to work in North Carolina while the fourth eagerly awaited for hers to be shipped to New Jersey. They each set right to work. Texts were sent, calls were made, and photos of their progress were sent. None were disappointed. The puzzles were perfect! They were stunning, creative and fun! They were challenging, yet achievable creations that fed their competitive nature and stimulated their minds.
These four puzzle enthusiasts had an idea …. and Puzzledly was born. Ready to join them?

We loved doing the California puzzle over the holidays so much that we cannot wait to open Italy! What did we love? The colors and drawings were gorgeous and the pieces have a luxe feel. Just wish it came with some great wine!

The puzzles produced by Water And Wines are absolutely brilliant. Gorgeously illustrated, meticulously researched - they provide knowledge and entertainment for someone who loves puzzles and collects and enjoys wine (me!). I've completed and framed all the wine puzzles - it's fun to gather with friends and purchase and taste wines based on the puzzles.

This puzzle was our absolute favorite. So many regions to identify. Really looking forward to seeing Australia and hope to see a Washington/Oregon wine region map in the future.

This was fun for a group of us to work on together. Lots of different things going on so we could all pick something to work on. Love the large poster that was much easier to see for those of us who are a bit "older" :) Beautiful finished product!

I loved this puzzle! Even though I grew up in California I don’t live there anymore. This made me miss it! The colors are terrific and the quality is very nice. It was so much fun to re-live some of my many jaunts around the state- from where I grew up in Santa Barbara to San Francisco where I lived and met my husband. We’ve always love the wine country and this depicts the whole state so well! I only wish I hadn’t lost one piece from my Italy puzzle. It was wonderful and I’m ready to visit.
