Heart of the Desert Pistachios & Wine

Daniel Graham

We visited the wine tasting room and then came back for the free tour. Lisa and Michaela were our guides. Both were very knowledgeable, answering our many questions about the pistachio orchard and processing facility. It may not sound that exciting, but it was really interesting to hear the history and learn the process the nuts go through. All of the pistachio samples we tried were great, as were the wines!

Sampled some nuts, sample some oils and vinegar, and sampled wine. The wine girl, Mikey, was fantastic. She taught us about the difference between the wines, and what we liked, and what to look for. We bought a bottle of their Pistachio Rose, and some flavored white balsamic vinegar.

Amazing winery and pistachio store. Free wine tasting and pistachio tasting. Price of bottles of wine were very reasonable plus 20% discount if you purchase 3 or more bottles. Also 10% off for military discount if buying less than 3 bottles and are a veteran or active military. Very clean, friendly staff, amazing to see pistachio trees. This is a must if in the area.

We were Alamogordo and just happened by. What a wonderful surprise. It was early in the morning and they had just opened for the day. We tasted various flavors of pistachios and their wines, both were outstanding. There is a wonderful outdoor patio that is next to the pistachio grove. It would be a great place to spend an afternoon or evening. I didn’t take my camera thinking we were visiting a nut shop, it turned out to be much more. We will definitely make a point to stop again next time we are in the neighborhood.
