New review up on the Arizona Wine Monk blog today: the 2015 Cimmaron Aglianico from @callaghanvineyards. Made from 100% Aglianico, this wine will be a great examination for this varietal in Arizona's growing conditions. #aglianico #cimmaronvineyard #willcoxava #willcoxwines #winesofarizona #winesofwillcox #winesofinstagram #bottlesofinstagram #drinkaz #oharizona #azwine #azwines #arizonawine #instawine #wine #redwine #mogollonrim #instagramaz #arizonavigneronsalliance #azlandscapes #tannicaf #winereview #wineblogger #ArizonaWineInspector #arizonawinemonk https://www.instagram.com/p/BpZ9aYfF5hC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3t4iwoteep1u

Finally was able to visit @sandreckonervineyard tasting room in tucson // great to see S.AZ wine tasting in the middle of downtown #drinkaz #azwine #willcoxwines #tucson #blackandwhite #blancoynegro #arizona #summer (at Sand-Reckoner)

The @flyingleapwines 2014 Tannat picked up a Gold Medal in San Francisco. This Tannat from the Willcox AVA rounds out our Terrific Tannat Tangent at the Arizona Wine Monk blog this month. I wanted to emphasize in this shot the floral notes in Tannat after these wines have opened up.

Now for the Petit Sirah! Earl Grey tea, cinnamon, fennel, cherry, and dust. It's very mellow and tight; decant this one. #petitsirah #azwine #arizonawine #wine #azwinemonk #oharizona #arizonacollective #hiddenhand #merkinosteria #willcoxwines (at Merkin Vineyards Osteria)

Now for the 2014 @hiddenhandwines Syrah! It makes me think of red velvet cupcakes and pipe tobacco. #syrah #azsyrah #azwine #arizonawine #wine #azwinemonk #willcoxwines (at Merkin Vineyards Osteria)

And now the 2014 Mourvédre, also sourced from Al Buhl Memorial Vineyard. Rich notes of cedar, rosemary, cavendish pipe tobacco, boysenberry, and cherry. #instagramaz #azwinemonk #azwine #arizonawine #wine #mourvedre #redwine #willcoxwines #hiddenhand (at Merkin Vineyards Osteria)

Getting ready to talk about the Manzora Red from @grvwines in the Arizona Wine Monk Blog; here's a shot of some vines and wine and monsoon clouds from last month at the vineyard... #azvineyards #azsky #arizonawine #instagramaz #sangiovese #grapevines #skyporn #arizonacollective #explorearizona #willcoxwines #dragoon #dragoonwines
