Sonoita Real Estate
Located at the crossroads of U.S. Highways 82 and 83, Sonoita is home to Arizona’s wine country, where many vineyards produce a variety of colorful and award-winning wines.
The soil around Sonoita and the neighboring hamlet of Elgin is nearly identical to that of Burgundy, France, and the countryside is characterized by rolling grasslands, blue skies, wide open spaces, numerous vineyards, cattle ranches, pronghorn antelope and magnificent mountains.
The strongest economic base is in ranching, but the area also experiences tourism dollars and local vineyards contribute to the economy.
The area’s original inhabitants were Native Americans who found that the lush area along the Sonoita and Harshaw Creeks provided ideal living conditions with plentiful hunting and fishing opportunities.
In 1539, Spanish explorer Fray Marcos de Niza entered the area near present-day Lochiel on the Mexican border. The settlements of Sonoita and Elgin were founded when the Santa Fe Railroad built an 88-mile-long line that ran the full length of Sonoita Creek, from Benson to Nogales, in 1882.
