The 10 Best Food & Drink in Arizona, United States

June 22, 2021 Renato Branum

The state of Arizona is one that features a fantastic diversity of landscapes and areas of geological interest. North Arizona is famous for the Grand Canyon, a colorful chasm with steep rocky walls more than a mile deep and stretching some 277 miles alongside the Colorado River. Other notable destinations in North Arizona include Flagstaff set alongside the San Francisco Peaks which has the largest ponderosa pine forest, Museum of Northern Arizona, and is close to a number of national parks and monuments. On the south side of Arizona lies the city of Phoenix, the largest in Arizona. Notable day trips in Phoenix include the Heard Museum which is one of America's largest collections of Native American art, Phoenix Museum of History, as well as the Desert Botanical garden which has a great collection of desert plants.

The tour was very informative and what an interesting process. We tired a number of their varieties and enjoyed learning all about them. Tried some other non alcohol goodies and loved how the presentations. We had friends from out of state who we very impressed by the time the owners took with us, purchased several of their products and can’t wait to enjoy them.

Chateau Tumbleweed

Chateau Tumbleweed is a collaboration of four friends – two husband-and-wife teams – who, after working more than 30 combined years for other Arizona wineries, recently left their “day jobs” to focus on their own project. We have a great friendship, a penchant for absurdity and complementary skills in vineyard management, winemaking, sales and administration. We crafted our first wine – only three barrels – in 2011. After three vintages of making our wine at the Four-Eight Wineworks Winemaker’s Cooperative in Camp Verde (2012-2014), we took the plunge, purchased the building we’d been eying for the previous year and converted it into one of Clarkdale’s first commercial wineries and tasting rooms.

I saw CT online with the Verde Valley tour and it said worth a stop, so we did Our host LOU which we want to adopt, was the best. Let us do a VIP switch around on the tasting and even went back and brought out some from the back room... Was a fun time and great atmosphere. If u r in the area, please stop and enjoy. And yes, we purchased some reds! Our covid safe tasting kinda sucked, but it was what it was. At least the wine was good DaveB

My husband and I stopped in to Vino Zona while staying in Jerome. We REALLY enjoyed our hostess as she tailored our tastings to our taste. She also explained each wine she was pouring and was very knowledgeable about the grapes used. The bottles were a little more expensive than we had anticipated but we did think it was nice that the winemaker had signed them.

I visited Page Springs Cellars for a wine tasting and lunch. I sat at the outside bar, which had a view of the vineyards, and tried the Red Flight. I enjoyed the dry reds and the conversation I had with the server. For lunch, I had the curry chicken salad sandwich and a salad, which was delicious. Bonus was the fun music they were playing on the balcony--just loud enough to hear, but not too loud that people couldn't have conversations. As my title says, it was a lovely visit. I would recommend Page Springs Cellars to others!

While in Sedona we were curious about the talk of wine in the area. We started at Jerome and thought we would try it . We got there as they just opened and found out there was just a limited tasting. I had ask about a certain wine and the gentleman, that I hate that I can’t remember his name was nice enough to open a bottle and let us taste The wine is not cheap and u get what u pay for. Was a great start to our Verde Valley tour. Great job Maynard! DaveB
