We just had the WORST experience at four eight! The servers were snarky, unfriendly, and downright rude. I was embarrassed by how much I hyped this place up to my friends and how these people behaved. We even drive to be treated this way. Sorry friends!

You shouldn’t have to beg for good service. I felt like we were a burden on Scotty, sad because it seems like it should’ve been a fun experience in a cool location.

This review is for the Customer Service(or lack thereof) for this business. Since we didn’t stay, we cannot review for the wine or any other imbibe here. My partner and I entered with 3 of his family members, their first visit to Clarkdale. Up in crowded Jerome about 12:30pm, we decided to ditch the traffic there and«go down to Clarkdale to Four Eight Wineworks»(we had never been either, so it was to be a treat for us too). Enter about 1:30pm, one gentleman employee at the«bar» he doesn’t look up from what he’s doing(measuring wine — for who? no one else there) or acknowledge us. We walk over to the window«sofas» and plop down, thinking we will be waited on. Suddenly a limo pulls up with probably fifteen 20to30-something/corporate people on their lunch break. He tells THEM«folks if you want to order something, you’ll have to come up here to the bar, I’m all by myself» So we get the picture… they obviously are going to take a LONG time to order — 15 of them –vs– 5 of us. So we decide to leave and go across the street to Main Street/Canoe and Kayak — we eat(and drink) there. Four Eight is a cool place inside, wish we could have tried their wine/offerings. Not sure if we’ll return — like to support local business, but it they’re not prepared on a Friday afternoon with more than 1 employee to acknowledge a customer… or serve, then why bother?

We stayed in Cottonwood for a long weekend and planned some wine touring while we were there. We were in Clarkdale for the Canyon Verde train ride so checked there also and decided to go by here after our train ride before we headed back to Cottonwood. We were thrilled at the quality of wine they had to taste. We lived in CA for 20 years and so have been spoiled by Napa Valley and other really nice wine tasting areas. In our opinion Four Eight Wineworks had the same quality. As we gave our opinions, the person serving us changed what we tasted to fit what we liked best rather than stay strictly on the list. We ended up buying two bottles which says a lot(we didn’t buy any when we did wine tasting in Jerome or Cottonwood). We will make sure we stop by regularly for more tasting whenever we are in the area.

Love it. The selection of red wines in the Verde Valley. Atmosphere is a great compilation of rustic and new age. Staff is on point, down-to-earth, low-key, and great.

We rode by this place on our bikes and were so intrigued we came back in the afternoon. Now, let’s just say up front that we are California wine snobs, that being said, this place is the bomb, not only in ambiance but also in wine excellence by CA standards The place is very restoration Hardware in a historic bank building with the original teller stallls and bank vault which was their boutique shop with leather chairs and glass coffee tables but more awesome is the severs know wine; they are winemakers themselves and are really Iinto local wine and beers We left with a smile on our face and a Case of wine– from three different local winemakers; how cool is that! Didn’t even make it to another winery! So if you love California wines Arizona style stop by on our way to Jerome or back and taste most excellent Arizona wines.

A funky wine collective with a laid-back vibe in a historic settings. The server explained each wine to us(they serve beer too), and given that we were the only patrons at the time, allowed us to jump around the wine list to create our own tasting. Don’t expect this, however, if there’s a crowd. There’s a cool energy in the space and this is worth stopping by on a wine tour of the area.

At the Certified LocalAZ First Fall Festival in Phoenix I met Aaron Weiss. He is a tasting room teller for Four Eight Wineworks. After sampling«Merum», a delightful red from Iniquus Cellars, I was surprised to learn two things. Four Eight Wineworks is a coop. Their tasting room offers beer(open 7 days a week). Winemaking can be an expensive adventure. This cooperative enables almost anyone to join the pursuit of creating«that amazing bottle of wine». It’s no wonder Four Eight Wineworks was at a LocalAZ event. Their wines are truly local products, created by local folk. Four winemakers plus a house wine are available for tasting in their Clarksdale space. Three local beers are on tap. And(there’s more!) you can comfortably fit 48 for a party. Four-t-y Eight. Isn’t that cute of them? Hours of operation are 12−7pm every day of the week. (Thanks Aaron!)

Awesome experience at Four Eight Wineworks. Great staff and cool ambience. Loved the vintage back lit poster with the business name incorporated into them. When in Clarkdale AZ this is a must visit for all adult beverage enthusiasts.

Great place for a tasting or a glass. Knowledgeable staff, comfy seating and laid back ambiance. Try a flight of the Château Tumbleweed.

Husband and I went here March 2014. It was a very nice set up, but on a very quiet street. There were a few customers there when we walked in, so that was a good sign. The guy new his stuff and was generous with his pours. We bought 2 bottles and would go back. Just hope they do well in spite of the quiet location.

Very nice place with lots of time and money put into it… Many wines to choose from but the tastings were only a tiny taste. A better way to spend would be to buy a glass of wine that fits the description of what you’re looking for.

Love the concept of a co-op for wine makers. Great wine selection, amazing atmosphere and friendly service. Absolutely the must see and wine tasting in the region.
