SEDONA WINE FIELD GUIDE
Sip, Sculpt, & Savor: A Six‑Hour Sedona Loop of Wine, Clay, and Landscape
A six‑hour guided outing that pairs curated Arizona wine tastings and artisanal charcuterie with a hands‑on ceramics session at Rovang Ceramics — a practical guide to what to expect on the Wine Tours of Sedona experience.
Sip, Sculpt, & Savor: A Six‑Hour Sedona Loop of Wine, Clay, and Landscape.
This is not a conventional tasting crawl. Sip, Sculpt, & Savor stitches two of Sedona’s quieter pleasures — regional wines with artisanal charcuterie and a guided, hands‑on ceramics workshop — into a single, leisurely half‑day. The combination of tasting bars, a working ceramics studio led by Alex Rovang, and a later visit to a Page Springs–area vineyard creates a rounded experience that trades speed for small‑group conviviality and a take‑home keepsake.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Curated Arizona Wines & Artisanal Charcuterie
The tour begins at Vino di Sedona or The Art of Wine with a curated selection of wines from across the state paired with artisanal charcuterie; a bottle from the tasting is included to enjoy later in the itinerary.
Hands‑On Ceramics at Rovang
At Rovang Ceramics Alex Rovang and his staff guide guests through creating ornaments, refrigerator magnets and small sculptures — even incorporating Sedona’s vortex‑infused sand — with options for more complex work or advanced techniques like wheel throwing for an additional charge.
A Vineyard Stop in Page Springs (Cornville)
After the studio visit the group drives to the Page Springs area of Cornville to visit one of several local vineyard locations — DA Ranch (closed Mondays & Tuesdays), Javelina Leap Vineyard, Oak Creek Vineyard, or Cove Mesa Vineyard — chosen by your guide based on palate and timing.
What the day feels like
How the Day Feels
The rhythm is deliberate: an introductory tasting and charcuterie set the tone, a bottle accompanies you to the next stop, and a studio session at Rovang lets conversation loosen while hands get busy shaping clay. Laughter and camaraderie are as much part of the takeaway as the finished ceramic and the final vineyard pour; the guide then completes the loop with a drop‑off back to your Sedona lodging.
