The Windmill Winery and Arizona Wedding Venue would like to thank all of our wonderful guests for attending our August 6th Wine Tasting. We had a fabulous evening with our many friends and brides. Our historic reception barn was filled with the aroma of our savory meal of Asian/Vietnamese food. Our wine tasting offered a night of tasty wines and beers with an oriental focus. Some of the most popular were Oroya, a white wine made in Spain by a Japanese wine maker that is made especially for sushi. The Ozeki Sake was a nice accompaniment with the Asian menu. My personal favorite was the plum wine made by Kikkoman, the 300 year old company known for their soy sauce. The beer aficionados enjoyed Sappora from Japan, Yanjing from China and Singha from Thailand.
The Windmill wine tastings continue to become more popular each month with over 160 people in August. The winery welcomes its old friends such as Fi-Fi, John, Barbara Henry, Jennifer, Darrell, Sarah & Victor, Rusty & Lina whom have been with us since day one and we welcome our new guests such as Roxanne Hill from Arizona City. We’d like to thank Dee Patton from Casa Grande for bringing her group of ladies to attend yet another evening of fun. A shout out to Penny from The McKinsey Inn, a Bed & Breakfast in Eloy, Arizona, for making the trip over to The Windmill Winery and bringing her friends to share the experience.
It was wonderful to see Bride Sarah McDowell and Groom Richard Vitale. They have chosen the The Windmill Winery to host their Rustic Elegant Wedding Celebration in October. We look forward to helping make their classic wedding dream come true. Their photographer, Angelina Rose Photography, made the trip with them and she was awed by the venue’s beauty. A true compliment from one of Phoenix’s finest photographers.
It was a pleasure to see Bride Lauren Manning and her family. Lauren and Bryan are hosting their May Wedding at The Windmill. It was great fun to show everyone the new brick terrace complete with the oxen yoke — great for photos. We were honestly bursting with pride at the beautiful lush lawns and gardens of the Windmill Winery, compliments of Saul & Pifa. They have worked very hard this summer to create a beautiful property.
We were also excited to meet Matt Lewis, a reporter from The Coolidge Examiner. He is an old friend of my daughter’s from High School. It was great fun to see him interviewing Katie & Harold. The Windmill Winery has a knack for reacquainting old friends. The venue seems to have big welcoming arms that envelope you as you step on the grounds. It has a relaxing and comfortable feeling. Our past wedding guests have exclaimed, “This is the best destination wedding spot in Arizona…unlike any other”. So, please come visit us. We are perfect for Western Barn Weddings, Rustic Elegant Weddings, Vintage, Contemporary & Modern Weddings. The Windmill Winery will help make your wedding dream come true.
