Do you know what pairs well with this weather? Wine.
Sonoita Vineyards, the oldest commercial vineyard and winery in Arizona, is hosting its 21st annual Sonoita AVA New Release Festival. The big event is set to take place at Sonoita Vineyards on Saturday, November 12 from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
You couldn’t ask for a more picturesque view as you sip on excellent Sonoita wines and listen to live music by The Band Wanted and Liz and Pete. Arts and crafts vendors will also be onsite since, you know, the holidays are right around the corner.
There will be a food truck on site: Tita! Tita! They’ll be serving up pork, chicken, and cabbage lumpia, chicken thigh and pork shoulder barbecue, and will finish things off with something sweet such as their guava cookie or turon.
Tickets are $30 online or $35 at the door, and each ticket comes with eight tastings.
