Wine, Food & Blues at the Southeast Arizona Wine Growers Festival

February 24, 2020

A perfect place to "wine" down & enjoy the scenery.

Wine and shine, Arizona.

Kief-Joshua Vineyards is hosting the annual Southeast Arizona Wine Growers Festival from 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. on Saturday, March 7 and Sunday, March 8.

Like the previous years, the two-day event features samples and new wine releases from more than 15 Arizona wineries or acclaimed winemakers, and live blues music from some of the best in the Tucson area.

The festival continues to expand each year, and in 2020 it’s destined to be bigger and yummier with local cuisine from the Ciao Down Food Truck, Las Vigas Mexican Food, Russel’s Texas BBQ, and other vendors. Aside from the food you can visit other vendors selling jewelry, art, handbags, Henna tattoos, and more.

Matt Sterner

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
