Came here for a day trip with my GF and we had an amazing time, to say the least. Sherry was a great host and introduced me to an amazing selection of whites, reds and rosé's. The hour we spent there went by quickly with the amazing conversation and suggestions of where to go. Hit up a few spots she mentioned and both were awesome. Thank you. Coming back. read more

After working through all of the wine tasting stops in Jerome, I can now say that Passion is my favorite. The wines are delicious. My favorite on the last stop was a dry riesling, which will be perfect for summer. The service was even better. We had met Stephanie the night before at Cabal Cellars, which I guess is a partner wine shop, and she remembered us. She has such personality, and she made our experience terrific. They also sell balsamics and olive oils there, and I was able to bring home some habanero olive oil as a gift for my husband who is not a wine drinker. Passion would definitely be a go-to spot for me in Jerome. read more

Pasion Cellars has two of the best employees on the planet. Stephanie and McKenzie serves the finest wine available. My wife and I have visited some of the best wineries in the US and abroad. I live in Prescott and often make the trip to Jerome to taste the great wines at Passion Cellars. These wines along with the service rank a five star service level. Stephanie goes above and beyond to explain the quality and harvesting technique always with compassion and a great smile. Her husband McKenzie also provides great information about the different wines and taste pairings. I strongly suggest patrons to stop by the winery and try their quality wines. Service will exceed your expectations and who knows you may take some of this great wine home to enjoy I always do and truly enjoy it with our meals or as a social hour with our friends. It's an honor to support your business ventures. The Ambiance always meets or exceeds my expectations. God bless Rick and Sheri M read more

This place was wonderful! This was our first stop on our wine tasting journey in Jerome. I even loved the 17 steps it takes to get to the tasting room. The wine is excellent and my friend and I ended up buying two bottles each. Our wine connoisseur was funny, personable and kept us quite entertained. Oh and very knowledgeable, gave us some tips and tricks on wine tasting. I don't even care that there's a ghost in the ladies restroom lol lol Joking aside the wine here is top notch! I was able to put my wine tasting classes to good use. I knew exactly what I wanted and what I wanted to taste. My taste buds did a happy dance so I had to buy some to bring home.

I really do not enjoy leaving negative reviews, but hopefully this helps this business redirect into a more positive place. Upon entrance, tons of seating, okay ambiance. The woman that helped us was very unfriendly and snobby. I appreciate someone that can educate without being rude. Instead of learning about the wine, she wanted to flex her own muscles and just overall had zero customer service skills. The wine. Very sweet rose. Not really for us. We asked for 2 glasses which the lady insisted we buy a bottle which we did. At the end when it was time to tip, she started being extra friendly to us. I think the business could benefit from hiring someone new to be the face of the company at this location. We sadly will skip this on our next trip to Jerome. read more

Wine tasting here was fun! We walked in and was greeted right away. We were the only couple in here till we got through two of the wines we tasted. You can do agave nectar wines or 5 wines on there list for $12. If you buy wine they wave your tasting fee. She started us with the Jerome white which was very light and dry. My type of wine. We tatted their Pinot Grigio, a rose (which was my favorite), then a Cabernet Sauvignon, and a few others. She let us taste their dessert wine as a bonus pour, but this wasn't for me. The lady that was pouring out wines was very friendly, and explained everything in great detail. Overall we had a great time! read more

We stopped in the Passion Cellars on our recent visit to Jerome. My wife and I decided to do a red flight tasting. We enjoyed the wines. Our favorites were the 2014 Nebbiolo and the 2014 Merlot Reserve. Both would be decent wines for the dinner table. When we realized they were affliated with Salvatore Vineyards, Ginger gave us passes for the tasting room in Scottsdale. We didn't get to use the passes on this trip but we are saving them for the next visit to Phoenix. read more

As far as tasting rooms in Jerome are concerned, this is probably my favorite. I don't think I have tried a wine here that I absolutely did not like. Of course I have my favorites (Hell's Half Acre, Anglianico, Day Tripper), but overall they are just really good. I have been here twice and the staff is also very friendly and helpful. If you drink wine often and love their wines, the club membership seems like a great value. We had considered joining, but we just don't drink enough for it to be an option for us. read more

My wife and I decided we wanted to experience all that a little city called Jerome had to offer. We parked the car and started to walk down the street. This is the place she darted into first. When we both walked in we were greeted by a very nice younger lady. She asked us if we would like to wine taste today. Of course, my wife was like YES, so we sat down at the bar. She handed us a menu to share, where we got to pick 5 wines on the list for $12.00. She suggested that we do different wines so we could try everything that they had to offer. So she poured my wife first the Pinot Grigo while I tried a different white (can't remember what it was called). We went through a couple whites, a rose colored wine, and then to reds. The lady pouring the wines explained each one, while talking to us about where we both were from and what brought us to jerome. she explained to us about their winery, where the grapes were grown etc. We always like to get the history that goes along with the tasting. After we had gone through all our tastes in our 5 wines to choose from, she started to pour us more on the house which was awesome. We got to try some of their dessert wines too. No ports though, which bummed me out. Overall, this place was pretty cool. Worth stopping in read more

Passion Cellars was our last wine tasting stop of the day in Jerome. We definitely saved the best for last! Our server, Kari, was so sweet and friendly. She took her time, explaining each wine, she was attentive and invited us to sit on the open porch with the most gorgeous view! She brought our tastings to us and helped us take a perfect family picture, moving tables and chairs for the best view and lighting. The Chardonnay and Malbec were our favorites. We left with a bottle of Malbec, souvenir wine glasses, and the most comfortable t-shirt. Kari helped me find the size I needed and wrapped our wine glasses carefully for the trip home.

On a trip to Jerome recently, I pulled up Yelp to see there was anything new and interesting around that I had not yet seen. Sure enough... Passions Cellars sparked my interest of course. Wine!? Tasting's?! My feet couldn't move fast enough. We walked in to this beautiful little tasting room and we were lucky enough to be the only ones in there. Ginger kindly greeted us and just started pouring and schooling us on everything Passion Cellars. Ginger was AWESOME!! She was filled with information, gilded us in all the right directions, gave us some pairings with different cheese's and chocolates. And not only did she know everything about all Passion's wines, partners, wineries, and locations but she also knew all of that about the local cheeses and chocolates she supplied us. At the end of our tasting Ginger was sure to give us some coupons to visit their Scottsdale location. You know I will be there after tasting all of those delicious local wines. read more

We have been amazed... that the Southwest and especially the Verde Valley area has so many viticultural qualities that stand out. 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.

Hands-down some of the best wine we've ever had. (and we have been to France! Hahaha)…read more The food was fantastic- we had bread, gnocchi, lasagna and pesto. The service was amazing, the restaurant location was impressive, the music was great.

Made reservations for today at 4:15 and the service provided by James was better than expected but…read moreI cannot say the same for the food and especially not based on managements approach. While making the reservation I made a note that our oldest son is autistic and non-verbal and his only form of communication so that staff was aware we decided to give this place a try. After spending close to $800 on food for our party we decided to exit the restaurant and that is when the problems began. As we were walking out another customer at the bar a patron at the bar decided to squeal at my son but also yell into his face. When who I assumed was her daughter realized we saw what was going on she covered her mouth and told her to stop. Being adults and understanding of others different situations we decided the best method was to approach the management team and explain the situation. I then approached a manger who was wearing a pink colored collared shirt and explained to her what happened and her response was "that hurts my heart, we do not stand for that and we will definitely do something about this." We waited outside for about 15 minutes to see what was going to be done and once we saw nothing was I went back in to speak to the general manager. This was definitely the worst part of the night. Tiana came out to speak to us and I asked her to speak on the side so that other patrons were not affected. Her response to me after explaining the situation was "since we did not see it we cannot do anything." I let her know that was an inappropriate response and that since it was a private business they could remove any patron for any reason but if they did not want to do that then she could just openly tell me that. I then gave her an example and stated "if I stab someone and you do not see it then you would not remove me?" Her response was "we definitely would," to which I stated that goes against what you just openly told me and she that there is damage from a stabbing. I then stated to her that physical damage is the same as emotional and mental damge just in a different form which she seemed to easily dismiss. She then stated that the first manager I spoke to was doing her due diligence to find out what happened and I then pointed out that that manager was actually waiting tables and we watched her do this the entire time so I was not sure when due diligence was being completed. We went around in circles, I asked her to give me the ownership information to which she stated "the owner is too famous for you to know," but eventually gave me the name which I had already searched for in my phone. At this point I openly stated that she could just tell me they were not going to do anything and that transparency would be more appreciated to which her response was "you are not currently dining in my restaurant so you need to leave my property." We did walk away but I hope that this is addressed and not pushed aside. All that to say, I hope this type of discrimination was not because we were Hispanic (the restaurant was filled with 90% Caucasian clients), because we were from out of town (from California) and mostly I hope it is not because the stance of the restaurant is not that people with disabilities matter less. I hope someone reaches out to me to address this concern and I hope no other family has to be a part of what we went through tonight. Tiana seems to be invested in the business and that is great but should also understand her customer concerns. Update to this review: Called this morning (2/17/26) and the hostess said she was not going to help me with any information, that I was a weirdo, to grow up and then hung up the phone on me.

Great family owned winery. Very friendly and great local wine . Great scenery and quaint…read moresurroundings. Always nice to enjoy local family owned business

Super cute winery in a lush, green area! When you arrive, the sweetest dog comes to welcome you…read more We arrived were seated promptly upon arrival, on the lovely patio. There were a few tables and cute decor on the patio. The ladies were super friendly and welcoming to our group. There were really wonderful. We arrived maybe an hour before they closed. We were offered a complimentary charcuterie board to go with our tasting, which was a very nice touch. The tasting is great because it's flexible. You can choose which wines you'd like to try from the list. You can double up if you enjoyed a particular one. Even though we arrived late in the day, we never felt rushed. They let us sit there and chill while they closed up shop. They were happy to let us take some photos among the vines before we left. This is a wonderful place to visit if you get a chance. I'll be back if I'm ever in the area again. Until then, our push pins mark our visit.
