We’ve gotten to know Matt a bit as well, and you can see his passion when he talks about winemaking.Īrizona Stronghold is on our short list of favorite tasting rooms, and we always stop in when we are in Cottonwood. There is a new winemaker, Matt, who is really making some good wines and I think overall the wine at Stronghold is the best it has ever been. About the area, the wines and even other staff members!Īll of their wines are pretty good, but hands down our favorites are the Bayshan Rhone style blend, and the pièce de résistance the Lozen Bordeaux style blend. Feel free to ask lots of questions, they can answer most of them. We’ve gotten to know them quite well, some have moved on and some new ones have joined. The staff are fantastic and always friendly. Oh, and the smell from the grill outside will make your stomach growl and your mouth salivate! Again, go for the duck you will NOT regret it. The chicken and pork are fantastic as well. Go for the Duck for sure, we had two of those this last time and it just melts in your mouth. They currently are offering, Shrimp, Chicken, Steak, Buffalo, Pork and Duck. One of the things we love love love about Arizona Stronghold is that they offer freshly grilled skewers. There are lots of different tastes that can be fulfilled here. Derek chose one flight and I chose the other, so that we could taste all of them. I know it was a warmer weekend, but they should at a minimum consider that wines are better at the proper temperature. ![]() The reds were a little on the warm side and heading into a warm cup of tea range. I did notice this time around that they may want to consider coolers for their wines. ![]() ![]() Either way they are pretty good about allowing you to sample something additional on either list. The tasting room offers two red flights, the A Flight and the Z Flight and then another option for whites only. They also offer many different types of wines. Arizona Stronghold offers several options for tastings. ![]()
