The magic of India will be flowing in the air and down into your glass as you celebrate life, long days, food, and wine in Sonoita.
Arizona Hops and Vines is hosting the Summer Solstice Bonfire from 6 – 11 p.m. on Saturday, June 17.
A $20 ticket will get you a souvenir glass from the winemakers, six wine tasting tickets (including a taste of a new mystery wine), plus all the delicious food you can eat by Saffron Indian Bistro and Kababeque Indian Grill.
The AHV tasting room features a unique and friendly atmosphere, along with a one of a kind Wishing Barrel. Guests are encouraged to write down a wish on a piece of paper, put it in the barrel, and ring a bell for a toast shared all around the room.
Your children and pets are also welcome, although they highly recommend a leash – for your pets, that is.
If you’d like to explore the wilder side of the winery, feel free to visit the goats, chickens, peacocks, and more at the petting zoo.
And what’s a Summer Solstice Bonfire without performances? Belly dancers will be lighting up the dance floor as you fill your own belly with delicious food and wine.
Arizona Hops and Vines is located at 3450 Highway 82 in Sonoita. For more information call (888) 569-1642, and visit azhopsandvines.com to purchase tickets.

More about MattAt 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.
