Merkin Vineyards Chupacabra Red is featured in the latest edition of The Coloradoan: “A classic Grenache-Syrah-Mourvedre (GSM) blend, this wine features grapes from the Buhl Vineyard in Willcox, Arizona, and “shape-shifts” depending on the conditions of the growing season and which grapes are showing the best. It is consistently unique and consistently delicious from vintage to vintage.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/gqvbYaBv

About us
We are on a mission to deliver a 100% Arizona experience to our extended family and community. It’s a mission few would choose to take on, but essential when regional, sustainable, and a sense of place are the goal. The majority of our fruits and vegetables are farmed in our Verde Valley greenhouses, gardens, and orchards. What we don’t grow, we source locally. All of our pastas and breads are made from scratch using Arizona Heirloom and Italian milled wheat flour by our Chefs and the magical kitchen staff. Mother Nature beats the drum to which we march and jump. Our menu remains flexible and changes weekly or even daily depending on her whims. It’s a challenge and journey we gladly embrace. All of our wines are produced by MJ Keenan and his team from our 110 acres of Estate Vineyards in both the Verde Valley and Willcox, Arizona. Caduceus Cellars currently has five different blocks in Northern Arizona. 4900ft, the Judiths Block on Cleopatra Hill, Jerome, AZ, is a combination of limestone, volcanic, and sedimentary rock. 3500 ft, The Marzo Block and at 3300 ft, The Agostina block are covered with fine river sediment over a bed of calcareous substrate. The Elephante block, in Cornville, AZ, has a minimum of 5 different soils/terrain profiles all on a 28 acre site. The Southwest Wine Center, Yavapai College Block is nestled in the alluvial foothills of Mingus Mountain. All this peppered with volcanic magic dust. The main fruit source for Merkin Vineyards is the historic 70 acre Buhl Memorial Vineyard, in the Kansas Settlement of Willcox, Arizona.

“Why do you put nets over your vines?” This is a question we hear often. Farming in Arizona presents a multitude of challenges. Generally speaking, the nets protect the fruit from many natural predators; mostly birds, insects, and javelinas. But our primary concern is hail. Here in Arizona, we also need to protect against the occasional hail storms, which can quickly destroy the fruit and in worst case scenarios wipe out an entire vineyard and force us to replant. The nets are carefully installed by our vineyard staff just after veraison to protect the grapes from all of these threats until it’s time to harvest. #arizonawine #merkinvineyards #harvest2024
