Flying Leap Hospitality Group

Flying Leap Hospitality Group is the natural evolution of a simple idea: control your craft from the ground up and deliver it directly to the guest with purpose, precision, and pride.
 
Our story begins in the high desert of southern Arizona. In 2010, we started as farmers—planting vineyards in the rugged soils of southeastern Arizona with a long-term vision and a hands-on commitment to the land. From those first vines, we built Flying Leap Vineyards in 2013, transforming raw fruit into wines that express both place and discipline. In 2016, we expanded into distillation, applying the same rigor to craft a portfolio of spirits.
 
By 2018, we extended our reach statewide through direct distribution, taking control of how our products moved to market. What began as a vineyard became a fully integrated production and distribution platform—and in 2025, we completed the model by expanding into hospitality, bringing the entire experience directly to the guest.

Hospitality was not an add-on. It was the logical next step.

In 2025, we acquired Noble Hops and Vero Amore—not as passive investments, but as operating decisions. We rebuilt them from the inside out: restructuring operations, resetting cost disciplines, refining menus, and aligning every aspect of the business around efficiency, quality, and contribution. These venues became our direct-to-consumer channels—places where our wines, spirits, and standards meet the public on our terms.
 
Today, Flying Leap Hospitality Group is a unified enterprise built on that foundation.
 
At Noble Hops, our craft beer gastropub in Oro Valley, we pair elevated comfort food with a disciplined, high-performance beverage program. At Vero Amore, our Italian trattoria in Tucson, we combine traditional technique with modern execution, anchored by a wine program rooted in our identity as producers. At The Still, our craft cocktail and cigar bar, we showcase our distilling capabilities in a more intimate, refined setting centered on premium spirits.
 
Across every venue, the philosophy is consistent: operate lean, execute precisely, and deliver value the guest can feel.

We are not chasing trends. We are building a system.

Flying Leap Hospitality Group is defined by vertical integration, operational discipline, and a relentless focus on efficiency. Great hospitality is not accidental—it is engineered. It comes from controlling inputs, managing costs, training teams, and holding standards. It comes from recognizing that profitability and guest experience are not in conflict—they are aligned when the business is built correctly.
 
The result is a company that performs differently.
 
In a market where many pursue volume at the expense of margin, we focus on contribution. Where others rely on third parties, we create our own channels. Where others react, we plan and execute. This approach has produced stronger unit economics, improved labor efficiency, and higher-quality revenue—even in a challenging environment for both the wine and restaurant industries.
 
This is not a collection of venues. It is an integrated enterprise designed to produce, distribute, and serve its own products at the highest level.
 
Flying Leap Hospitality Group is where vineyard, distillery, and restaurant come together—one system, one standard, one brand.
