Wine With Wixy

Your guide to everything involving wine, from cheese making classes to a summer of wine making to becoming a wine entrepreneur to the art of writing.

One Hope Winery [January 2022]

I saw an ad on Facebook about becoming a wine cause entrepreneur. I was intrigued, I mean I buy and drink wine, so why not make some money while doing it?? All the while supporting a good cause [of my choice] with a portion of the sales!? It really sounds too good to be true, the wine must not be very good right?? So, before I was going to tell a single soul what I was going to try next.. I needed to sign up and get my wine kit [pictured below] to taste this wine before I tol

Water to Wine Tour [April 2021]

It is finally time for me to write about the long awaited “water to wine” experience. [the one I mentioned way back during the Verde Valley Wine Trial] Let me start by saying that I had a very nervous excitement when I first read about this excursion, as I have never kayaked before!! But this activity was a birthday gift for my work daughter Hayley [who you have met many times before] and I felt up to the challenge!! I mean, it did end with wine so… LOL!! It was nothing short

Coronado Winery [April 2022]

As I mentioned last week, we are heading down to Willcox, Arizona to visit a few vineyards of wineries I have really enjoyed at various Wine and Art Festivals. Since Willcox is about three hours South of our place, we decided to take the Motorhome and make a weekend of it!! Totally Shawn’s idea but isn’t it grand!? The city of Willcox is a historic little town known for their Farms, Ranches, Orchards and Vinyards!! Willcox is in the Coronado National Forest, which brings us t

Goose Ridge Estate Winery [August 2021]

Soooo, I may have said that this week my blog was going to be about a road trip to Montana, BUT long story short... I was wrong!! LOL This week, Wine with Wixy will be telling you about a different road trip, one with my very good friend, Katie Gordy!! Katie came up to visit us in Spokane, and we revisited many of the wineries that I have already talked about this summer. However, part of our EPIC adventure included a trip to Cannon Beach, on the Oregon Coast. [you may rememb

Whether you're a novice or a seasoned taster, there's always something to learn. Dive into the ambiance, selection, and unique offerings of wine bars I’ve

visited and the tastings that have resulted.

Postino Wine Bar [January 2002]

Well, at least I have always thought of Postino as a wine bar anyways, but no memory is ever perfect. [especially mine!! LOL] In fact, no timeline is ever perfect either. I was wracking my brain to try and remember how I found out about Postino, and to figure out which location I visited first. I then realized [with the help of my FB posts] that I have visited Postino years before, like in 2002 [and probably several times in between] with my very good friend Katrina Kaczmarek

LDV Winery [January 2022]

Happy New Year and welcome back to the Scottsdale Wine Trail!! Now I have been on this particular wine trail multiple times, but I have also been to many of the wineries independently. Key stops along the trail include… Aridus Wine Company, [which I bumbled through in last weeks blog.. LOL] Arizona Stronghold Vineyards, Carlson Creek Tasting Room, LDV Winery Tasting Room, Merkin Vineyards , Salvatore Vineyards Tasting Room, and The Wine Collective of Scottsdale. Now, a coupl

Aridus Wine Company [December 2021??]

Remember how I said this week was going to be a little “off” ?? well… maybe I am the one who is a little off!! Hahaha!! I mean, I have visited a lot of places and tasted a lot of wine, but I do not remember [which is the problem-LOL] ever totally forgetting a tasting. The date, the location, the building, the wine. It is almost even a little bit embarrassing that looking back at my photos still doesn’t jog even the slightest of memories!! Is wine amnesia a thing!? I have even
