Sip Sedona Wine Tours

::Harvest season is here::

Visitors to the Sedona and Verde Valley area who are going to any of the local vineyards have probably noticed full clusters of grapes or nets on vines amongst vineyard blocks. It’s that time of year! The clusters are fully developing and getting ready for their day in the spotlight. A few wineries have already begun to pick varietals such as Viognier and several others. It can be common to see some winemakers deciding to pick by the 2nd week of August, while the month of September shows no relent for the crews working in the cellars. It’s one of the best times of the year to witness the nature of our wine growing industry. You can even smell the process of fermentation lingering in the air if you visit one of our local wineries.

So take a trip along the Verde Valley wine trail this month and experience the beauty of Arizona wine country and beyond. 🙌🍇

Governor Katie Hobbs signed another proclamation this month to keep this great tradition going. Arizona is home to many amazing winemakers and vineyard owners, wine industry professionals, and incredible wine destinations.

::LABELS:: can say a lot about a wine. You might not want to judge a book by its cover, but we all know we can be drawn in by an attractive cover.

Some winemakers get real creative with their labels, coming up with unique artwork to capture their brand. Others keep things simple and perhaps get more descriptive on the backside, like a table of contents while at the same time enticing readers to enjoy their wine.

I for one love a good label, as it gets me even more excited to taste what’s inside.

What’s some of your favorite wine labels?
