Arizona Stronghold Vineyards announce final 2009 bottle signings


Puscifer Arizona Stronghold Vineyard vintners Maynard James Keenan (Caduceus Cellars/Merkin Vineyards owner and front man for Tool and Puscifer) and Eric Glomski (Page Springs Cellars) will host, in conjunction with Whole Foods Market, three bottle signings in the Southwestern U.S. kicking off with a Dec. 6 date at Whole Foods in Tucson.

The announcement follows a year in which the pair did over three dozen signing events at Whole Foods locations throughout the U.S.

Glomski and Keenan's quest to bring the wine industry to Arizona's Verde Valley is the subject matter behind a documentary currently in post-production with a planned February 2010 theatrical release.

Dates and locations for the signings are:

December 6 2:00 – 5:00 pm Tucson, AZ (3360 E. Speedway Blvd.)
8 5:00 – 8:00 pm Santa Barbara, CA (3761 State St.)
9 5:00 – 8:00 pm Las Vegas, NV (6689 Las Vegas Blvd.)
