St. Clair Winery / Southwest Wines

This past Saturday I took some clients to tour the custom crush facility in Deming, NM.  Being just a couple of hours past the border from AZ, not only do 14 of the NM wineries use their services, but several of the AZ wineries do too.  At 300,000 cases per year capacity, Southwest Wines is the largest winery facility in NM and I am sure larger than any facility in AZ. 

Thanks to Lori and Phillipe for their hospitality and for giving us the grand tour of the facility – and barrel tasting!  Quite impressive, much more respect for what they do over there.
