    Entrance to caduceus
    Laura C.

    The two sommeliers that were working were kind enough to let us do a red wine tasting and cheese plate even though my boyfriend and I came 30 minutes to their closing. The wines were divine and I walked out buying the first one we tried in the flight of tasters. The very last one in flight was super bitter, and left an aftertaste; but it wasn't bad, just a complicated palate cleanser. The vegan cheese was such a bonus on the cheese plate as my boyfriend could eat the regular cheese and I had the vegan cheese to indulge in along with the Italian olives and Smokey almonds. The dried apricots and dates were a wonderful healthy bonus to the plate. I come to this winery every time I'm in town, its clean and calm atmosphere is a huge draw, and the wine is always delightful.

    Huge fan of Tool and Perfect Circle and of course MJK. I love the whole thought behind Maynard's local view and support for where he resides...but... I was born and raised in the Bay Area. I have a small place in Napa that I have been going to for over 30 years. I have been privileged to meet some of the most amazing growers and blenders: Harlan, Palmaz, Larkmead, Continum et al. Caduceus is really about grapes that are grown in a terroir that is not conducive to great grapes..and hence not great wines. I am not a Oenologist from UC Davis but I know a bit. Perhaps the soil is less rich, the use of more water in such an arid place that yields wines that are thin and lack depth. Their blending is good but I don' think it can make up for the quality of grapes. The tasting room is really cool and the product mix is wonderful. I only bought three bottles of the higher reds...and when I open them I hope I am wrong. But the two of us had flights of the whites ( just okay) and the reds ( better). Service was great and fun to hang out. One and done

    The people that work here are so incredibly friendly and excellent conversationalists. Just a fun little stop with a great atmosphere. I ended up with a delightful bag of Pucifer coffee beans that have been a joy to look forward to in the mornings for espresso.

    My sole purpose to Jerome, Arizona was to visit Caduceus Cellars. After learning a little bit about the winery, and being a wine lover and Maynard's talent , I thought I would go out of my way, final destination being in Mesa, to try some wine. The two sommeliers that were working were quite enjoyable and informative. Brian, I believe is the manager, gave me the background on both the Caduceus and Merkin wines. I opted for a flight of red, since I'm not fond of whites, and out of the floor, I found two of them to my liking, 2021 Airavata and 2021 Sancha. A small plate of various cheese, crackers, olives, and dried fruit accompanied my tastings. I thought the prices were reasonable... $14 for a flight of red which included four wines. The cheeseboard was $22. The other sommelier, Alan I think, approached me telling me I reminded him of a certain red headed singer/pianist, which I don't think I do, and we started talking about music of the 80s and he introduced me to several musicians to check out. Of course, there are some accessories to purchase while you're there including T-shirts, hats, hoodies, delicacies for your pallete. I picked up a traveling wine glass and a corkscrew to have on hand in case of emergency. Overall, I will make another trip to this establishment in the fall when it's a little cooler and I can enjoy a stroll through Jerome. The reason I gave it a four is because it is a very small tasting room with only two tables available to sit at. The rest of the room requires standing.

    Big fan of Maynard, he makes good wine too. I missed this place the first time we visited Jerome so we made sure to stop by this last trip. We did the samplers both white and red and found a few bottles that we liked. I bought one although it was a bit pricey, but good wine usually is. There were also lots of souvenirs so I picked up a shirt, but all the stuff was expensive for what it was, so I took off a star for kind of squeezing visitor's wallets. The stuff must sell for those prices though... This seems very much a tourist destination, but it's a great location to stop and have a glass of wine while visiting Jerome. The Ambiance was small town shop kinda feel. We had a great able by the window. The one weird thing was the staff made a big deal about my flask of water. Not allowed to drink out of your own bottles I guess. It was 104 outside. They brought us some water though so not a huge deal.

    We've enjoyed sipping wines of both Caduceus and Merkin, especially at multiple visits to this location in the past. We were looking forward to trying out their latest offers and taking some home with us as we've done in the past. But this time, an awkward and off-putting situation occurred... upon entering, my wife was brusquely told to leave her coffee cup outside, and I was told gleefully by the patronizing young woman behind the bar not to take pictures - really! ... we turned around and left.

    I went in with 2 of my other friends and we decided to do the tour they offered for $25. We had Jaime lead the tour and he was amazing! He gave us so much information on the building, the history, and basically everything. He had a long experience with wines so he was very confident in his skills and craftsmanship. He let us try so many wines and gave us a clear explanation on how everything tasted and was made. Definitely get Jamie to help you out. I didn't try their dinner meal but the wine was fantastic, I got 2 bottles. Also Jaime is you're reading this I'll try and spread the word of your tour around.

    An Arizona staple, the Caduceus tasting room in Jerome is a delight. The brainchild of Maynard James Keenan (lead singer of Tool and owner of two other wine labels, Merkin and Queen Bee), the space is clean with lots of interesting details. We tried the red flight - a solid deal at $15 for four 1oz pours. Our server was knowledgeable and fun, sharing fun insights and rid bits to bring the experience alive. We also enjoyed a light nibble of olives and crackers - nothing fancy but just the right bite to clear the palate between sips.

    Great tasting room in a cute town. Had wanted to come here after watching a show featuring Caduceus vineyard and made sure to swing on over during my recent visit to AZ. Tons of cool gifts, bar supplies and of course wine! Try your taste of white or red flights or better yet try both! We had 3 of us 2 of us tasted the reds and the other the white so sharing was perfect. If you need a little nosh I highly suggest the charcuterie with the an amazing selection of cheese and meats. They aren't your average flavors and pair perfect with the wine. Staff was really nice and took some bottles back with us. Stop in and enjoy the not so average tasting room. Cheers!

    First, we are huge Maynard fans. We were so excited to visit Caduceus Cellars. Although we were very impressed with Caduceus, Four Eight, the tasting rooms, the wine, the gelato and Jerome, the attitude from some of the staff was bad. Our server at Caduceus was wonderful, bubbly, and happy to be there. The other gal, not so much. She was cold and had a really bad attitude. We chalked it up to maybe she was having a bad day, but then I read some of the other reviews and I guess that's just their M.O. Nevertheless, I spent over $400 there. The "kids" tending to the Puscifer Store were giggling and fooling around. It was hard to take any of that serious at all, but we did leave a cute offering at Puschiva. The gal serving us at Four Eight was wonderful. She spent the time to talk to us about the history of Jerome, the wines from both wineries and we had a really nice conversation. I love that she referred to Maynard as Mr. Keenan - nice touch! We ended up ordering gelato, apple sodas, a can of Queen Bee, and a glass of Four Eight Red. Lovely! 3 stars because with better customer service, it could have been SO great!

    It's Puscifer time

    Not that I'm hella fan girling on anything Maynard touches. But I am. Let's be real, so this will be a biased review... brace yourself. Let's start off with how friendly the staff is. You feel right at home in Jerome with how you are welcomed in. And then... the wine selection from the wine flights is not just beautiful in aesthetic, but amazing in taste. You almost want to nurse the wine in your mouth until it seeps in your gums and enamel of your teeth to be honest. At this point, what I'm trying to say is-- this wine cellar is one of the staples of Jerome, come visit and you get to even enjoy an espresso or two.

    We weren't able to make it here before they closed when we stayed in Jerome this summer so we came back to Jerome while in the Verde Valley area to do a tasting yesterday. They do not take reservations. I called when we were on our way there to get their advice on another tasting room we could visit in Jerome after we go to theirs. The woman who I spoke to was not very helpful and said she doesn't really drink wine. Then she said it sounds like you've been to a lot of wineries today already in a judge voice. I let her know that, nope, I had only been to 1 that day. Hah, clearly a friendly voice means someone had too much to drink. Despite this annoyance, the 4 of use still came to taste here. We waited and waited and waited for someone to serve us. It took so freaking long. Just because they were packing up bottles for people who were there and ordered them. It does not take that long to put some bottles in a box. And yet, they took their time. There were 3 people working. And only 2 groups of 4 including us and 2 groups of 2. When we finally did a tasting, I was actually really happy that I didn't like their sparkling mead (too sweet) or any of the reds in the wine flight (alot also tasted too sweet). That means I won't be missing out on anything since I won't be coming back. The only interesting part was the background behind the names of each of the wines in the flight. I don't understand the appeal. The tasting room is nothing special, they don't have any cool views and the service is slow.

This place is not looking to slam out every table rather let folks enjoy the experience, sit back, relax, live in the moment. For some, speedy service is necessary. Not always the case for us - thankfully not the case this evening. The table next to us were celebrating a 30yo's bday and complaining to the manager about slow service until they got comp'd... then we heard the guy complaining that his cc was maxed out... - food is locally sourced, much of it owned by the owner so the prices are VERY unexpectedly reasonable. We expected to pay more but entrees were around $25/average +/-... all in with an app we shared and 2-3 glasses of wine our Saturday dinner total was $100

We read the disclaimer on the bottom of the menu stating possible risk of cross-contamination and informed our server that a member of our party has celiac disease, despite this declaration we were served allergens TWICE. Both the fried gnocchi with the steak and a pizelle cookie hidden in the ube gelaska were served despite our clear notice. Food safety is a significant responsibility, and it appears the kitchen staff ignored the modifier on the service ticket for the steak (the server forgot to add the modifier on the dessert dish) and the server did not pay attention to the presentation prior to delivering the dish to the table. While the manager was lovely and effective at de-escalating the situation, the initial server's reaction was to walk away. Celiac disease is a serious health issue, not a dietary preference, and requires strict precautionary measures. Unfortunately, the carelessness displayed by the staff deters us from returning, as this lack of attention to detail poses a serious health risk to your patrons. I hope this feedback will be taken seriously to ensure better safety protocols in the future. It's a beautiful establishment with an incredibly unique menu that deserves better service and care from the staff.

Being somewhat connoisseurs of good vino we're always on the lookout for more extraordinary and delicious wines in Arizona. Wine enjoyment is very subjective, and our tastes may not reflect yours but what we have found here at the Chateau Tumbleweed Winery defines the regions wine eminence and potential. Of most the wines tried an overwhelming number we found to be of high quality. Their white, red, and rosé varieties are a refined sort, giving each a uniqueness that one can distinguish from other vintners. They have made a specific point of utilizing some of the best of the best vineyards across Arizona thereby designing their own distinctive approbation to their own product. Some our faves on our visit are the refined Cimmaron Vinyard Mourvèdre 2022, the pixelating Picford Blanc 2023, the refreshing Rex 2022 and the exhilarating Miss Sandy Jones 2023. We took some home! Miss Sandy, Mourvedre, Rose and Dos Amigos. Enjoying a few wine choices at their location is a relaxing, enjoyable and flavorful happening as they offer a calming and comforting outdoor patio area conducive to sipping and enjoying. If you're wine connoisseurs like us, you will enjoy a pause here for some refreshing and enjoyable sips on the patio.
