Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a reservation to visit the tasting room in Tubac?
Walk-ins are generally welcome during regular business hours, though calling ahead is smart if you're visiting on a weekend or bringing a group. Reservations help the staff prepare and ensure you get proper attention during your visit.
What types of wine can I expect to taste here?
Flying Leap grows grapes suited to Arizona's desert climate, so you'll likely find bold reds, crisp whites, and seasonal offerings that reflect the high-elevation terroir. The exact lineup rotates based on the current vintage and what's available at the time of your visit.
Is the tasting room family-friendly or adults only?
The tasting room is focused on wine, so guests who are tasting must be 21 or older. Families with non-drinking adults or older teens may be able to accompany tasters depending on current policies, so it's worth calling ahead to confirm.
Can I buy bottles to take home after my tasting?
Yes, bottles are available for purchase directly at the tasting room. It's one of the easiest ways to bring a piece of Arizona wine country home with you after your visit.
How long does a typical wine tasting visit take?
Most visits run between 45 minutes and an hour and a half, depending on how many wines you taste and how much time you want to spend chatting with staff. There's no hard time limit when the room isn't packed.
Is Tubac worth the drive from Tucson just for the tasting room?
Tubac has a lot going for it beyond wine, including art studios, boutique shops, and historic sites near the Tubac Presidio State Historic Park. Combining the tasting room with a full afternoon in town makes the drive very worthwhile.
