Arizona – High Desert Terroir & Hidden Gems

Jason McCluskey, Winemaker at Arizona Stronghold Vineyards, takes Wine Across America on a journey to Arizona. Jason shares how elevation, climate, and passion shape his wines. He reflects on his journey from intern in 2008 to head winemaker, with stops in New Zealand, Australia, and Oregon along the way. We taste a Viognier, Rosé, Red Blend, and Cabernet Sauvignon - exploring Arizona's unique terroir, food pairings, the state's growing wine reputation, and a can't-miss sunset train ride.
