Get your walkin’ shoes on because on Saturday, April 22 the second Arizona Wine Walk is taking place at Westbound, 267 S. Avenida del Convento.
If you missed the first event, it’s a walk-around Arizona wine tasting at the MSA Annex. You’ll have the opportunity to sample up to 15 wines from featured Arizona wineries, including Callaghan Vineyards, Merkin Vineyards, Caduceus Cellars, Sand-Reckoner Vineyards, Dos Cabezas, Los Milics, Rune, Brigand, Page Springs Cellars, Deep Sky, Bodega Pierce, and more (as if that isn’t already an incredible list).
Plus, what pairs well with wine? Music and snacks. There’s going to be live music from Febbo Fuentes & Jimmy Carr and a charcuterie pop-up from Cuts & Slabs.
Tickets to the Arizona Wine Walk range from $50 to $80 a person. It all depends on what kind of experience you desire (see blow).
