My husband and I recently had the pleasure of spending an afternoon at the Sand Reckoner Tasting Room in Tucson. The sommelier, Katie, was very knowledgeable, lots of fun, and she had excellent suggestions for us. I would recommend Sand Reckoner to anyone visiting Tucson who would like to learn more about Arizona wines, to anyone who is planning a date or girl’s night, or really just to anyone who enjoys good wine. The tasting room is located in an old Quonset hut warehouse that has been masterfully repurposed. It is a very comfortable, relaxed environment.Our flights consisted of five tastings. We each had a flight, a glass, and we bought a bottle and we spent about a hundred dollars, including a twenty dollar tip. It was the best hundred dollars I’ve spent in a long time. I can’t wait to see what new wines Katie recommends next time we visit.

We really enjoyed our visit here! We tried 9 different wines between the 2 of us and didn't find any we didn't enjoy. The reds had a nice depth and the whites and rose were all very refreshing and not overly sweet. Lots of interesting tasting notes and our server was great about sharing more about each wine as she poured them.The tasting room is small but modern and very approachable - you don't feel like you need to dress up or be a wine connesoiur to be welcome. We joined their wine club based on this experience and are looking forward to coming back!

Never heard of them before doing a random search for "wineries in Tucson". We quickly became HUGE fans of the wine at our first tasting. Didn't find one we didn't like. Went home with a half case of our favorites which was about half their menu. Very attentive to customers, fun conversation, great people. Highly recommended!!!

I had the orange roussanne. It was robust and lovely. My only critique is the bar set up. With tasting it tends to get crowded and hard/long to order your beverage. Definitely has a demographic that attends, wish younger folks would enjoy this space more.

Great wine from Arizona!

Our Wine Hostess, Maddy, was knowledgeable and pleasant! Good flavored wines and a very neat atmosphere!
Not only is Sand Rekoner making some of the best wines in AZ, they are also being represented by some awesome employees. Kirsten helped us yesterday with our tasting, and she was well-informed, knowledgeable, friendly, and approachable. All of this amounted to a singular tasting experience that led to a number of purchases and left us more educated about Arizona wines. 6 stars out of 5.
