Imagine, a stretch limousine picks you and your party up at your front door. A seemingly short drive north to Cottonwood or south to Tucson and Wilcox and you are delivered to the finest local wineries and tasting rooms in Arizona.

Here winemakers and Sommeliers await your visit where you taste an array of local varietals and custom blends. Around lunchtime your driver selects a beautiful location appropriate for the day’s weather and lays out fine linens for your use. A gourmet lunch is then unpacked from a gourmet picnic basket for you to enjoy.

After touring several more vineyards the driver delivers you home well fed, relaxed and fully educated on exceptional Arizona wines.

AZ Wine Tours (480-528-2834) provides a special opportunity to explore Arizona’s burgeoning wine country and accommodates parties of 2–8 people. Experience wine tasting in luxury with friends and family or show off the best of Arizona to your out-of-town guests. www.azwinetours.com
