TASTING FAQs
“More than anything, we just want you to feel relaxed and to have a good time. Whether that’s relaxing on our amazing patio, telling stories at the counter, sipping our fine wines, or watching the kids play, we want you to remember Hops & Vines as a place you felt at home.” -Arizona Hops and Vines
COVID?
We are OPEN! Our tasting room is open for tastings, wines by the glass, and wines by the bottle (not to mention our daily sangria and sangria slushees!).
HOW MUCH?
Tastings are $10 during this time and we prepare a complete tasting course with disposable cups on a tray which enables you to take it outside to enjoy on the patio. For those that love our collectible Hops & Vines wine glasses, we still have those for sale for $5 each to help you enjoy wine by the glass.
Bottles range from $29 to $50 ($26 to $45 case price – see our wine list for full bottle pricing).
KIDS & PETS?
Your kids are welcome – we have a petting zoo, friendly faces and our pets. You can tell bawdy stories and make bad puns because we probably will, too. Your pets are also welcome, although we highly recommend a leash – this is the country, after all, and we would hate to have your relaxing wine tour interrupted by chasing a pet across three miles of open fields.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
Wine tastings at Hops & Vines are a little different than most places.
Alright, they’re a lot different than most places! Shannon Zouzoulas, co-founder and chatterbox extraordinaire, hosts with a variety of our friends, helpers, and kids. Besides our excellent wine list, you’ll find a lot of things in our tasting room that you won’t in other wineries:
The Famous Green Door – We purchased this amazing wood door from Alf Taylor in Tucson, and if you ask Shannon nicely she will tell you all about it.
Jack Kerouac and Frida Kahlo quotes painted on the walls – Quotes which directly inspired Hops & Vines to make the jump from fantasy to reality.
Cheetos – Our wines can be paired with these amazing cheesy poofs. But don’t take our word for it. Come on down and have a handful or seven.
You’ll also notice one thing that is definitely not present: A bad attitude.
WINE TASTING EXPERIENCE?
We like people! We love wine! We’re not going to stick out pinkies or give you a dour look if you don’t know everything about wine. And if you do know everything about wine, we love talking about that, too!
