Danielle, our Wine Gal at Oak Creek Vineyards
 Originally drove out to Canyon Creek Vineyards about 25 minutes from my house, only to find out that they didn't have a tasting room, only vineyards.  OK, I ended up on a rough, really rough dirt road out to no where, turned around and went to Oak Creek  Vineyard followed by Page Springs Vineyard and then a drove out to Cornville to The Grasshopper Grille & Bar.  The wine at Oak Creek was delicious.  Their reds are the best I have tasted so far. . .  Well, at $35 a bottle for the one I really liked, what can I say.  Met a couple from Denver who originally grew up in Avon Lake, Ohio.  They were on bicycles and had ridden 39 miles from Cottonwood and Sedona!  They followed me to Page Spring Cellars, where I had  shirah that was really great.  They recommended The Grasshopper Grille & Bar.  It was a cowboy-type of place but had a great sandwich and drink at the bar.  Met some fun people!  John McCain lives in Page Springs, which is remote with a few huge estates surrounded by horse ranches. . .
