More than 20 Downtown Phoenix restaurants will offer wine samples on the self-guided tour.
No need to whine, the self-guided tasting tour of the year is almost here. Spend your Saturday (May 11) on the Urban Wine Walk exploring downtown and taking in the buzzing bar and restaurant scene.
Sips start at 1 p.m. at the CityScape Phoenix plaza and pours continue until 6 p.m. Arrive early to be one of the first 300 people to get a free DTPHX commemorative wine stopper. Or, begin wherever you’d like at one of the more than 20 restaurants and bars participating.
Each restaurant will offer a $2 or $3 wine sample accompanied by complimentary snacks while supplies last.
Give a warm welcome to Rott n’ Grapes on Roosevelt Street for its Wine Walk debut. Opened in August of 2018, the chic restaurant flaunts a three-level bar, speakeasy basement lounge and top-notch wine selections.
Plus, several Wine Walk favorites will be back again this year, including Carly’s Bistro, Copper Blues, District American Kitchen & Wine Bar, Squid Ink Sushi, The Duce, and The Strand.
