Arizona Stronghold Vineyards Old Town Cottonwood Tasting Room - Cottonwood, Arizona

Best wine we have found in the area!! We have explored Jerome, Sedona, Cornville, and Old Town Cottonwood and this place is the only place we have bought bottles from. (We like full bodied dry reds.)

Cute little place and good vibes.

The girl working Tuesday evening was awesome.

A great wine tasting experience. The back area had a cute setup. I would definitely recommend that they bring out the entire flight together especially when it's busy so they're not running around a bit hectic to keep up. When it's not super crowded I'd say that one at a time can make sense.

Very Bad service. I spilled my glass of wine and wasn’t even offered another glass. I returned the wines from the tasting menu simply because 3 of the wines tasted nasty and the bar attendant charged them regardless. The wait staff could use a bit more training in customer service

A perfect weekend getaway for those looking to explore different wines. This place offers a variety of wines to select from. Our wine expert (Caleb) was awesome at describing the origin and taste to be expected. We happened to use a Groupon on the occasion which was a terrific value. The skewers that they grill were also amazing.

The service was amazing - warm, friendly, knowledgeable and sincere. Then there was the wine and skewers….OMG! No words. Highly recommend the elk (and I don’t like elk) but the bison and shrimp were also delicious. They were cooked on the barbie right behind us so we could smell the delicious aroma as we sipped our flights. All the wines were delicious but highly recommend their private, non-commercial labels are superb! I loved the white described with the words grass and gravel… ha ha so good. The reds were awesome as well! Love this place and will definitely visit again.

Some of the best wine that we had during our short stay in the Sedona area.

Great Tapas and Cabernet.

Make sure you visit with Destiney, Caleb, and Emily. They are amazing hosts.

Came in this last Sunday with a Groupon and had an amazing experience. The staff is great. Scott is fantastic! He took great care of us and is super knowledgeable about their wines. We upgraded to the bistro plate and it was well worth the $5. Great selection of cheeses, meats, dried fruits and nuts. We will definitely come back! Thank you!!

Should drinking wine hurt? Went to a few of the wineries in their Old Downtown area. This was our third tasting. I am sorry to say also the worst. The staff was very welcoming and knowledgeable. However the wine on the RED A list was a flop. The first and fourth tasting on the list were pretty much undrinkable. They were so acidic my nose and throat started to burn. It made me feel like I had just jumped off a high dive into a heavily chlorinated, public pool…. That same nostril burning sensation. Never before has a wine made me feel this way. I looked around for someplace to pour these tastings out… 😞 Even the staff said, “We don’t make the wine. That’s the vineyard. We get a lot of people who also dislike those wines.” The second wine on that list was ok. It was drinkable. Sad to say that maybe AZ just isn’t the place for vineyards…? Idk I am by no means a wine connoisseur… I’ve had Two Buck Chuck from Trader Joe’s yet the AZ Stronghold wines were even worse. My husband felt the same burning sensation. Maybe something is wrong with our senses? Idk We still had a fun time walking around and sampling food and wines. The staff alone is the reason for the three stars. Otherwise based off the wine I would give it one.
