Indulge In This Minimalist Winery With Mountain Views

2024 Best of Year Winner for Bar/Lounge Architecture

It’s a little bit Stonehenge, a little bit 2001: A Space Odyssey. Whatever it makes you think of, the weathered-steel panels surrounding the Los Milics Vineyards designed by Chen+Suchart Studio harmonize rather than compete with the surrounding landscape. The 3,400-square-foot glass box within, nestled at the foot of the Mustang Mountains in Elgin, Arizona, has a minimalist material palette of concrete softened by dark-walnut detailing. Its curtain walls frame the grounds of the 20-acre working winery, located nearly a mile above sea level in a terroir that’s quickly becoming a hotspot for wine enthusiasts.
