Straight from the Vine
Grapevines were first planted in New Mexico in 1629, making it the oldest wine country in the United States. Santa Fe is home to a number of wine tasting rooms, featuring locally vinified options. To learn more about the Land of Enchanment’s wine country regions, visit nmwine.com.
Brewed to Perfection
From hop-filled IPAs to opaque stouts, Santa Fe’s local brewers take the craft of making beer seriously. And local cideries offer a variety of fruit-derived fermentations from sweet to dry. As well, two local breweries produce hard kombucha, a refreshing alternative.
Classy Cocktails
From Tumbleroot’s High Desert Gin to Santa Fe Spirit’s Silver Coyote Pure Malt Whiskey and Altar Spirit’s Ritual Vodka, Santa Fe offers an ample array of Southwestern craft distilling. But making the spirits is only the start—and you can actually tour some distilleries to see how it’s done. And then you can visit their tasting rooms for a one-of-a-kind cocktail and be all the more appreciative of the craftsmanship.
