The wines are designed to express the high desert terroir of the Willcox Bench that we have found to be unsurpassed in producing spectacular world class wines. We aim to provide Arizona wine drinkers with a consistent product that over-delivers on quality. Take a moment to savor the time, the place and the people around you when drinking our wines.

Rex Allen Arizona Cowboy Museum

Reviewed By 254kathym - Apache Junction, United States

Honestly, we wanted to come here because we are in love with the song “I Love You, Arizona” (also titled “Arizona”) by Rex Allen Jr. We learned a whole lot more about both father and son in this nicely displayed set of memorabilia. We learned about Rex’s horse, Koko, which we did not know and Koko was a movie star in his own career and a stunning animal. We learned Rex was in a lot of movies, including some with Roy Rogers. He had a bunch of sidekicks, including Slim Pickens and Buddy Ebsen. He was the narrator on my favorite movie from childhood, The Incredible Journey. There are displays of musical instruments, music, posters, attire, and more. There is an entire art gallery of paintings of cowboys. We enjoyed the parts of the museum on Rex Allen Jr with so many records and music offerings, including some played in the museum while we were there. We bought a CD and now we know where to go for more CDs and DVDs. Well worth the stop and recommend you make a weekend of it as there are so many things to do in Willcox and the surrounding area - Sandhill cranes (winter grounds nearby), Chiricahua National Monument, Amerind Museum, vineyards, wine tastings, museums, Fort Bowie, and more. Highly recommend you stay at the Arizona Sunset Inn - clean, comfortable, affordable priced and with great WiFi and friend staff and owner. Willcox is a fun weekend get-away!

Visited Coronado Vineyards following a trip to Chiricahua National Monument. Very much enjoyed the wine, food (fantastic charcuterie board) and conversation with the owner. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Chiricahua Regional Museum

Reviewed By DonnaGSP - Madison, United States

We were so impressed with this small museum in Willcox. We were greeted by a curator(Cathy) who gave us a summary of local history and explained the layout of the museum. She also checked on us halfway through to see if we had any questions and offer more information on how Cochise’s relatives have contributed to the museum. There is so much great information about the Apaches, especially Cochise and Geronimo up through the time the tribe was moved to Florida and then Oklahoma. There’s also information on ranching in the area. I would highly recommend setting aside an hour or two to see this museum. Cost is only $3 per couple.

Friends of Marty Robbins Museum

Reviewed By timothyg868 - Mechanicsville, United States

On the Old Main Street of Wilcox is a nice, neatly maintained, museum dedicated to Marty Robbins, country singer. You enter the front door greeted by a very nice lady, and a very stocked gift shop with a nice gift shop filled with books, postcards, and some delightful Marty Robbins souvenirs. The museum, very affordable, is filled with Marty Robbins Memorablia. If you are a country western music fan, this is a nice aversion to your Highway 10 trip. Thank you.

Reviewed By 914jillr - Amarillo, United States

I live in Tucson and heard on radio about Apple Annie's Country Store. It said their Apple Pie had won award for best apple pie in world, so I knew I had to go there to see if it really was. Well it IS !! It's the best apple pie I've ever tasted, and they have other products that are also fabulous, especially their Apple Bread that is just the best ! It's a great store, friendly staff and they have such a lot of other things to look at and buy and even sit down and have a slice of pie there in their cafe area. Recommend you go there.

Pillsbury Wine Company

Reviewed By G3254USjohnp

We just had 90 minutes of tasting and banter with the owner, Sam Pillsbury. We found it enlightening, entertaining and overall awesome. We are not wine snobs, but have enough experience to say that this is a hidden gem. We ignore the negative issues posted by others, as we live on a dirt road in central Colorado, find ways to save money on used deals, and don’t compare our digs to House Beautiful. These folks make fantastic wines, period.
