Northern AZ Wine Tour: Bitter Creek Winery

Pam and Scott's daughter Dana is living in Phoenix, AZ these days, and has been doing some winery touring of her own. The following series of guest posts are from Dana as she tours and tastes at some of Arizona's local wine destinations.

Two blocks away from Jerome Winery sits their sister tasting room Bitter Creek Winery. Another great option for those looking for delicious, refreshing wines to help beat the Arizona heat, Bitter Creek offers wine blends. Blending up to 4 grape varietals per bottle, these wines have distinct flavors that are unique to the winery itself.

And just for a bit of entertainment, the Bitter Creek wines are labeled with Tarot cards, each representing the style of the wine bottled. These Tarot card labels give great color to your wine rack at home, and you can learn a bit about what each card represents as well.

My mom and dad LOVED The Magician (35% Zin, 35% Cab, 25%Barbera & 5% Petite Syrah), and I was a big fan of the Joan of Arc (three equal parts of Sauv Blanc, Pinot Grigio and Chennin Blanc)

Definitely stop by Bitter Creek and give these lively blends a try.
