Vino Di Sedona is a destination for wine and craft beer enthusiasts alike. Guests can find a vast selection of over 900 wines and 50 craft beers hailing from all over the world on the shelves. They can pair their drinks with a selection of hearty wine bar food. Visitors can snag a few seats indoors, but the outdoor patio really shines. Located out back from Sedona’s main drag, AZ-89A, the expansive patio is a delightful place to sit outside while you enjoy food, wine and live music played Tuesday through Sunday. Dogs are welcome on the patio. This being our women’s issue, we wanted to spotlight this place as it’s owned by Lauren and Jonathan Maldonado.
We love discovering new finds here. Sweet and light mead is one of our favorites. We’ve also enjoyed many an Arizona red out on the patio. Our go-to? The Cabernet Sauvignon from Arizona Stronghold. Drinks are served alongside inventive fare. We’re partial to the Smoked Ahi Tacos. Served chilled, these light tacos are made with crunchy watermelon radish shells and topped with ahi tuna, scallion and fresh dill. The charcuterie boards are another highlight here. Dig into a selection of meats and cheeses alongside bread and fruit. We personally delight in the Genoa Salami, which is both sweet and savory at once. The rosemary and olive oil asiago cheese is bursting with flavor and is a must-try selection. Flatbreads are another fantastic option. The last time we dined here, we dug into the Tuscan. Topped with house-made marinara, mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes, pesto, Parmesan and fresh basil, we delighted in the mix of savory Italian ingredients. All the flatbreads are made to order and always taste fresh.
Likewise, the desserts are all made from scratch. The light Meringata – meringue smothered in whipped cream over a coffee jam mascarpone buttercream – is our preferred order in the warm summer months. The Flourless Chocolate Cake is what we order when we want to indulge. We’re thankful to have a great wine bar in town. We look forward to every visit. − A Sedona Foodie
