  Our favorite tasting room in Jerome by far! We loved this place- the wine was wonderful and the staff was knowledgeable, but not pretentious or overbearing. We had a really nice chat with the gentleman who did our tasting, and learned a few things along the way too. This tasting room is more reasonably priced compared to some of the other rooms in Jerome. Try the Barbera on the tasting flight- it's amazing! We would be happy to come back again for another visit! I only wish we had made the time to go back to purchase a bottle from them.

  We had a great time when we were here.  The lady working/pouring (not sure what to call her?) was very friendly, knowledgeable, and not a wine snob at all.  I am always a bit scared of wine tasting since I am more a beer person and don't want to have to deal with the looks of distain from wine connoisseur/snobs when i am don't know anything about wines. However that was not the case.  I learned a lot and we found a bottle we both really loved.  I would recommend this place.  Even if you are not a wino :)  We felt very welcome and the ambiance of the place was awesome!

  My only beef about this place is that I couldn't stay all afternoon/evening. We have been to the tasting room in Cottonwood and were excited to come here. They have some different wines than the Cottonwood, too. The Jerome location is gorgeous! We walked in, on a cold, snow flurry afternoon and it was so cozy.
  
  The girl convinced me to try a new rose they were offering and I ended up having several glasses of it. The girl poured heavy so I was feeling really good when we left. They offered 2 tastes up to 10, I think, which is pretty cool. I parked myself at the table where I took my turn at the complex wood puzzle. I was in heaven concentrating on the puzzle while my husband chatted away with the girl. She was really great.....very friendly, knowledgeable, and laid back.
  
  My husband and I enjoyed this place this most on our trip and he was nice enough to buy me that fantastic bottle of rose'.

  Dionysian Cellars has really transformed the lower level of this building in to a wine sanctuary.
  
  I really wish I could give more than 2 stars as I loved the "wine barrel" bar, the murals and decoration details, and they even had fresh grapes from several of the wines we sampled.
  
  The lady that helped us started off being very informative and up-sold us on our tasting package (we were then able to out with a souvenir wine cup). But she quickly turned in to a wine snob. We did not know that much about the wine tasting process and my poor brother almost got his head ripped off when he rinsed his own wine glass out with water and drank it because he was thirsty.
  
  It became so uncomfortable we basically slammed our last 2-3 samples because we just wanted to split... didn't help that she miss quoted herself. We ended up not getting such a 'sweet' deal after all...

  A lot of fun.  Wines are far better than I expected for Arizona wines and having two wineries to taste from makes for an even better tasting experience.  The woman pouring the wines was energetic, fun and passionate about her products.  Great setting too.  Wines somewhat over priced but that is understandable given what is presumably a low production.

  Was there Sat Aug 18th.  It just opened 3 weeks ago.  The place is super cozy, friendly staff and offer a variety of flights, I had 6!  Located near the Haunted Hamburger.
  
  I walked out of there with two bottles of wine.  A bit more money than the other wineries but they do give you your glass after a purchase of a flight, Yeah!  And you leave feeling very good   about the experience.  The service was fantastic, he would constantly check on us to make sure we were ready for our next glass.
  
  The details on the decor is very nicely done.  I wanted to take home the dining table and puzzle so I can finish it off at home with my own bottle of wine!  ;)
