Alcantara Estate Vineyard Tasting Experience

What your day looks like

If you just want to dip your toes into the river and enjoy some of Northern Arizona’s best wines, then this is your perfect tour. At just three hours long, this tour takes you to one of the most pristine and beautiful settings, Alcantara Vineyard, the largest estate vineyard of the region. Our tour begins with admiring the abundance of red rock formations that surround our region as we travel west out of Sedona towards Alcantara Vineyard. Upon arrival, you will see why this is one of our favorite spots. Nestled on the banks of the Verde River, Alcantara is a beautiful place to relax and sample Arizona wines, sunshine, and the company of those you cherish. From the back deck and lawn, you will see caves and Indian ruins that date back over 1,000 years. Encompassing nearly 80 acres of available land, this is also the area’s largest continuous vineyard. The vineyard produces about 15 different wines annually, ranging from fruity whites to big and bold reds. There is sure to be a wine here to meet your fancy. For those who like dessert wines, we love their Port. We can even take a stroll through the vineyard to the wedding chapel located on the premises. Also on the property is the confluence of the Oak Creek and the Verde River. For those of you who may be enjoying the Oak Creek while visiting Sedona, this is where it ends and turns into the Verde River. This connection point of two waterways, the confluence, inspired the name for one of Alcantara Vineyard’s finest wines. In the limestone cliffs adjacent to where these rivers meet, you will see cliff dwellings dating back to the Anasazi and Sinagua Indian cultures.
