Winery, Vineyard, and Tasting Room in Sonoita
Wilhelm Family Vineyards strives to grow ultra-premium grapes on a unique terroir in the high desert of Sonoita. This Southern Arizona town is Arizona’s original wine country and was the first region federally designated an American Viticultural Area (AVA). This high desert vista, located one hour south of Tucson, is home to our estate vineyard, winery, and tasting room. At 5,000 feet and circled by mountain ranges, Sonoita offers a gorgeous backdrop for wine tasting and the complex soil is perfect for producing our high-quality Spanish varietals grown in La Rioja and Ribera del Duero areas of Spain. Intriguing red French varietals enjoy the unique soil and climate of our Sonoita vineyard, as well.
Terra
Alta
Bistro
In addition to our winery in Sonoita, we offer customers a wine bar in the heart of the Tucson foothills. This beautiful venue offers all our wines, draft beers and an in-house chef preparing wonderful meals to enhance your experience. Terra Alta Bistro is a wonderful choice for all occasions, from romantic dates, socializing with friends, educational seminars, to large group celebrations, such as birthdays and receptions.
Our Wines
We offer internationally award-winning reds, whites, rosés, Sangrias, and Port-style dessert wines. From the classic, robust reds to decadent, sweet varieties, you're sure to find a wine to love. In our tasting rooms, we strive to provide welcoming environments where we encourage everyone to try a variety of wines personally chosen for their palate.
