Northern Arizona is becoming widely known for its incredible vineyards, winemakers, and the overall exceptional qualities of its award-winning wines. I have no doubt that you will enjoy visiting wineries in the Sedona-Verde Valley area and will return year after year to indulge your palette and enjoy the great scenery that wineries have to offer. One of the favorite wine experiences for locals and visitors alike is the Verde Valley Wine Trail.
The Verde Valley Wine Trail allows you to experience a stunningly beautiful area that encompasses Sedona, Cottonwood, Camp Verde, Jerome, Cornville, and Clarkdale. There are four wineries featured on this wine trail: Alcantara Vineyards, Page Springs Cellars, Oak Creek Vineyards, and Javelina Leap Vineyards, as well as 4 tasting rooms: Caduceus Cellars, Jerome Winery, Arizona Stronghold Vineyards, and Pillsbury Wine Company.
This trail offers you the opportunity to visit these wineries and tasting rooms that will give you a comprehensive overview of winemaking in Northern Arizona. For more information on Northern Arizona wines or the trail, visit the Verde Valley Wine Trail website.
Note that there are plenty of tastings along the way, so drink responsibly and make sure you have a designated driver. If you prefer a guided tour of wineries in the Sedona area, check out the following tour companies that offer wine tours.
