Driving to Sonoita can be quite a memorable experience.  The Sonoita/Elgin area is one of the most beautiful areas of Southern Arizona.  The rolling grassland hills, scattered with mesquite, oak and cottonwood trees atop a desert plateau, provides breathtaking contrasts to the desert landscape of Tucson and the Sonoran Desert. 

   You'll find the designated 'Scenic' drive on Highway 83 south of I-10 to be relaxing and eye-catching.  Sonoita is a very popular location for bicyclists, motorcyclists and leisure drivers needing a weekend get away.  We have numerous Bed & Breakfasts if you wish to spend a day or two.  Come to Sonoita and take part in the Empire Mountain culture and enjoy our wines.  You'll love it and you'll come back!!
