Arizona Wine Collective

"My wife and I were on a nearby local e-bike tour and was recommended afterwards to check out this wonderful establishment. We had a great experience at the Arizona Wine Collective with wine flights, tasty charcuterie board, good conversations with the staff and wonderful time learning more about local AZ wine. We can't wait to come back the next time we are in Tuscon!"

"Jeanne, Pete & their staff provide a pleasant and personal wine tasting experience in a cozy environment. Their dedication to Arizona Wine producers offers customers unprecedented exposure to many small, up and coming wineries in the Tucson area. One of my personal favorites is 1764 Vineyards. Arizona Wine Collective is worth the trip!"

"All of the compliments stated elsewhere I agree with. I have done lots of wine tastings in many locales and I am impressed with the selections. Great atmosphere with friendly people staff and patrons. When I move to Oro Valley, I will still make it a point to come here. My wife wants to come here even though she does not drink. Love the snacks, especially the chocolates. These people know what they are doing. An oasis free of pretenses."

"I had a wine tasting and a glass of wine. I left to get some food and I had to cash out to do so, even though I offered to leave my debit card behind for the 15 minutes on-foot round trip to the burger place. Unfortunately it seems that when I came back it was the end of Elizabeth's shift (I'm quite sure that was her name) and this older woman dressed in all white took over. I understand you may reserve the right to refuse service to anyone who seems over-served but apparently having a naturally bubbly personality and talking a lot drives that impression. I've been waiting to order a glass of white wine (having tried the reds in the flight) and then I'd be done but she doesn't want to seem to serve me. She'd interrupt and talk about bringing me water and is generally treating me like a young brash drinker, not a 31 year old who makes touring wineries and wine bars in various states and amongst 13 countries her business of pleasure. I know how to handle myself and if I felt I was making a fool of myself, I'd pardon myself. But right now I don't look the fool. It's Arizona. It's dry, especially compared to the Midwest. Of course I'm drinking a ton of water, I'm thirsty - not necessarily drunk and trying to recover. I am definitely done with the dry personalities out here, though the lack of humidity might explain that too. I'm kind of done waiting. I'm sober now and I guess I'll just drive back to my hotel. They serve wine too, local wines even....what a shame. And for the record, just because I don't look as posh as some of your clientele doesn't mean that I don't have more money than them. For them, this is a special night out. And for me, this is just a day of the week. Maybe keep that in mind when dealing with people. I'd like to add that I was there for around 3 hours for my equivalent 2 glasses of wine, it's not like I was off my "rear-end." Maybe you treating customers with some respect instead of using demeaning terms that imply I'm younger than I am when serving me my water while I'm eating would do you well. If I'd known that's how you were going to treat me, I would've just eaten at that other restaurant and not gotten takeout to come eat at your random establishment and drink water. Response: Considering there's at least 6 restaurants within walking distance that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. And yeah, you know what? After 2 glasses a wine. I shouldn't drive especially when I had an eaten since 11 AM and it was now 5 PM. Once I had that Burger and fries. I was fine. I just needed to eat, girl. And I have to question if you would have thought this had I not made the statement about not driving but to be fair, Tucson is a terrible city to drive in anyways so being sober has little to do with it. Not to mention that your colleague who served me in the first place is the one who recommended that I order food AS TAKEOUT so I could continue to drink it this establishment. Had she not recommended that I wouldn't have done that (seriously WHY would I? I'm so confused by this from you). Yeah, no, that's actually not typical to have to cash out to leave an establishment, believe it or not, a lot of places are actually quite trusting. It's fine if you aren't, but don't make that seem like that's a normal thing. Like I get why you wanted it, but it favored me in the end because I didn't have to wait for you to stop ignoring me to leave. I also attempted to order something else multiple times and you kept interrupting me. Get your story straight, especially the part where you quote me saying "I'm sober." It's a wine bar, nobody is sober. That's the point and that's (normally) all people would receive from a wine bar. Lucky me, all I got from you was tap water. My hotel had no problems serving me, so they got the money instead and you got a negative review. Hope it was worth it."

"We had wonderful night there sitting on the patio tasting wine. Owner was super friendly and knowledgeable. We also ordered food from a nearby restaurant to eat while we were there. I would reccomend this place to anyone interested in local az wine!"
