For create an experience that allows you to see, taste, and experience things that you just may have never known about a well known band from the 1990's and what the lead singer is now doing shying away from the music scene. Let's start with music. Do the bands Tool, Pucifer, or A Perfect Circle ring a bell to you? You may know that the lead singer in all those bands is a guy by the name of Maynard James Keenan. But did you know that he lives in Jerome, Arizona and has been making wine for over a decade? Caduceus Cellars was his first tasting room to open up, followed by Four Eight WineWorks, and most recently Merkin Vineyards and Wine Tasting Osteria. On this rock star wine tasting tasting experience, not only two you get to enjoy a diverse selection of wines from each of his locations with wines that are made exclusively by James, but also while at Four Eight Wineworks you get to enjoy wines from Arizona's newest and smallest wine makers. Then while at Merkin Vineyards, we'll pair a selection of his delicious pastas, salads, and other items with more wines. For the music and wine enthusiast, this tour is for you!
