This place makes the whole experience of tasting wine so entertaining with the professional, knowledgeable staff, the whimsical decor, the tasty wines, as well as the high quality music performers. For us locals, it's a true pleasure to visit anytime and I'll be bringing all of my out of town friends to enjoy this fun and friendly atmosphere. I love the mixture of Whimsical and Frenemy wines for a refreshing and tasty wine combination. Maura has a great way of making us all feel special and is so good at describing the different vintages!

Shelby and Josie are amazing servers. They really know their wines. The place is d as I cute and we felt at home.

This was such a cute stop along the main street of cottonwood. Tantrum was recommended to us by a couple we met at another winery after we noticed that we had similar tastes in wine. SWEET. Their wines were all quite sweet and I would have tried everyone if I had the time. The mural in the back is amazing and even has the perfect instagram / photo shoot op. The bathroom was also pretty decked out. The only bummer was that because it's such a great place, it got crowded quickly and there was only one girl working (she was great) so it took a bit longer to get our next drinks.

Loved the vibe (& wine!) We wandered in during the anniversary party last night & were welcomed in & had a wonderful time. I, also, somehow managed to win a bottle of wine! Thanks ladies! Love your place!

This wine tasting room is the cutest, most welcoming, and fun winery in all of Cottonwood! The decor is feminine, chic, and provides an Instagram-worthy backdrop! We love coming to watch Lee Zimmer perform with his Spanish classical guitar! His music elevates the experience, making it elegant and relaxing! The wines are also very unique, fruity and delightful. Such a fun place to catch up, sit back and bask in the charming and cozy ambiance!

This was hands down my favorite winery stop in Cottonwood! The woman behind the counter was awesome, informative and friendly like we're her gal pals. The interior is so freaking adorable and instagramy. Oh and the wines-- I couldn't pick a favorite between the white and red. I loved the savvy and their cab. I could have spent the whole day here. Loved the live music too!

I was hooked into this winery while I was walking by, when one of the workers was fixing a light on the patio and said, "You should come in! It's all about women in here!".... So how could I say no? My boyfriend and I came back for a late night tasting, and I was thoroughly in love with the wines. The flights were very affordable and generous. He got a red flight, and I got a white (even though I'm a red wine girl). We both loved all of what we had. My most favorite were the Toomi red and the Felicity white. The Toomi really was like poetry in a bottle... the notes were incredible and the finish was like smelling expensive perfume in an upscale jazz bar. It just really brought back good memories for me. The Felicity was tropical without being too sugary. I fell in love with it because it reminds me of a favorite wine from Mercury that just tastes like summer. We ended up taking home a bottle, and it was very reasonably priced. My Grammy tried their moscato and it was incredible. It was velvety, sweet and not overly dry and acidic. She went home with a 4 pack of cans. Overall, I definitely recommend visiting for a unique experience in Cottonwood!

We absolutely love Tantrum. Emily always takes care of us and makes sure we have a great time.

Been coming to tantrum for a while and find their wines decent, but was recently shocked to find these photos posted by the owner. Comparing the recent pandemic to a Holocaust where thousands were murdered is incomparable, to having to simply wear a mask. It is also insulting to those families who were effected by the holocuast. I find it off-putting that she doesn't take social distancing serious, and refers to people and customers that do, as "Sheeple". Would make me uncomfortable to sit and visit. Do to this, I cannot come back and support a place that has lack of respect and understanding for those who may be vulnerable to the virus, or enough self awareness to know the difference between genocide/racial/religious oppression, and a pandemic. Edit/response: "Better keep her head down. Its worth the misdemeanor". Inferring violence/illegal action against a customer. Classy. For a "strong" women who doesn't "cower", its interesting that she doesn't want to show the pictures SHE posted herself. Ironic. Also nobody asked about your divorce (or cared) and has zero to do with what issues we were talking about. Seems frantic. Again no self awareness

Sauvignon Blanc, a white wine.

My girlfriend and I randomly found Tantrum Wines during our Arizona road trip while we were looking for a place to eat dinner. Please note this is a tasting room so it's different than a wine tasting at a vineyard. When we entered, we were immediately impressed by the colorful furniture and walls. This is a great place to capture Instagram photos and also have a glass or two of wine alone or with others. Also, in the back, there's a design on the wall by Tom Fish, a lead animator at Walt Disney Animation Studio, and it's super cute. In terms of the wine, I'm sober but my girlfriend enjoyed a flight and Josie was very knowledgeable. We actually arrived right before closing and she still patiently went over some wines with us along with other local history. In terms of the flights, you can choose 4 wines for $10 or 6 wines for $12. She chose 4 wines and they were all nice. Josie took us through each one and gave a lot of details in terms of how it's made and the flavor profile. On the menu, you don't see a flavor description (fruity, tannic, sweet, etc.) of each one and that's on purpose so you aren't influenced before you try each one. After she tried each wine, my girlfriend decided to buy a bottle of the Cha Cha, which is a sweet wine, and it was around $30. We definitely suggest going here and checking it out. It has a great ambience, history, solid selection of wines, and a unique design. Pros -Friendly and knowledgeable staff -Good wines and a nice value -Great decor -Fun atmosphere Cons -They don't have food and it would have been nice to pair it with each wine.

What great little place to have good wine and fun pics! The decor is so fun for insta pics. We had a glass of their Toomi and loved it. Felt warm and comfy! Definitely a place to check out.

The charcuterie at Tantrum is terrific. Loved the wine & decor too.

I went for a combo yoga and wine class through Yavapai College. We started with an excellent 1 hour yoga session on the patio overlooking the vineyards. The instructor was very good and also accommodating for various skill levels. As part of the class we had a wine voucher. I tried the Tannat, a grape that can be hard to find and it was excellent.

HOWEVER, Southwest Wine Center was a pleasant surprise. Nancy (I think that was her name, my apologies) was excellent, knowledgable and says she's an alumni of the program. It's so fun that this wine tasting room is part of a real, student and alumni involved viticulture program for Yavapai College. Also, my husband and I went to the 2026 Pecan and Wine festival in Camp Verde, AZ and there were a ton of wineries providing tastings and I disliked all of them except the Southwest Wine Center! Always smiling, always friendly, always delicious. If you visit the tasting room, expect beautiful views of the vineyards and fantastic, knowledgable staff. They have outdoor and inside seating. You can get your tasting of wine or hard alcohol they also make and offer flights.

We ended coming back about 10 min later because there wasn't too many food options around the area. The same hostess asked if a table was ok and we said yes so we ended up getting seated immediately. We were a little confused We ordered a few things, Garden salad - the portion was big but the vinaigrette dressing didn't taste like anything. I wish we got a different salad since it just tasted like plain wet salad (4/10) Pesto Pizza - very good pesto flavor and I really enjoyed their pizza dough. I wish we added some type of meat ontop because it felt like it was missing something. I'd probably get it again and ask to do that (6.5/10) or a (8/10) when I added the chicken Chicken piccata - this dish was good, chicken was a little dry. It came with polenta that was very flavorful. I was using this chicken to eat with the pizza and salad. (7/10)

Girls' trip to Cottonwood and one of our favorite stops: Merkin Vineyards - Cottonwood!…read more Amazing views, the most gorgeous sunset, and SO much good food. We had the Merkin Mac & Cheese, Grilled Wagyu Bistecca, and Gnocchi--and of course, all four of us did the Chupacabra wine flight. And the service deserves a special shoutout! We had been trying to get an Uber or Lyft for over 30 minutes, and every ride kept canceling. The staff overheard us trying to figure out how we were getting home and immediately stepped in. They called a local taxi for us, and it showed up right away! Good wine, great food, even better views, and the best girls to share it all with.

We've been so intrigued by the hilltop prominence of this beautiful building that we had to make it a special event (such as my birthday). The 100 steps from street level to the restaurant entry were easy and safe regardless of the several downpours that occurred that afternoon. Alternatively, patrons can easily drive around the hill to the restaurant entry. Or even more fun, take the funicular cable car from street level to the entry, riding along side of the steps to the top. Once inside, the hostess was adorable and friendly, quickly seating us per our reservation request to as the bar which has the most stunning views of the surrounding canyon all the way to the hills of Sedona. Once seated, our attentive bartender Lalo gently moved into action with beverages and our dinner order. The Salads are tasty and unique garnished with some fruits and nuts. The pizza was baked to perfection with lots of Pepperoni, and the Papardelle Pasta with Short Rib Red Sauce was excellent, loaded with sauce and meat, tossed with homemade pasta noodles cooked to perfection. Our bartender graciously brought us a couple desserts on the house for my wife and me to celebrate...Baked Alaska and of course Cannoli's. So much delight that we had to bring home a portion of each plate. Maynard, your vision for this restaurant and Old Town Cottonwood is a much appreciated example of creating art and atmosphere with structures. Keep up the great work! PS Apologies for no food photos...we immediately jumped in.
