Article explores ten varieties of Arizona wines
Yavapai Community College Southwest Wine Center wines were among those featured in a story written by Georgann Yara that appeared in the September 19 edition of the Arizona Republic. The article explored the more than 100 Arizona wineries located that rely on fruit from the three designated American Viticultural Areas of the Verde Valley, Sonoita and Willcox. These areas serve as the state’s three main wine regions. The vast majority of grapes are grown in the Sonoita and Willcox areas in the south and southeastern parts of the state.
