Rancho Hidalgo: An Historic Area
Steeped in rich history, the Animas Valley is quickly unraveling into a developers dream come true. Nestled amongst the foot hills of the Peloncillo Mountains with the Chiricahua Mountains to the west, the proposed Rancho Hidalgo Estates the manager expressed, is going to be the first of its kind in this area. There's nothing like Rancho Hidalgo Estates any where in this part of the country.Hidalgo County and Cochise County was at one time the Southwest's infamous territories where the likes of Johnny Ringo, Black Jack Ketchum, Sandy King, Billy the Kid, Wyatt Earp, Newton Clayton and family of the Skeleton Canyon homestead and the Apache tribes with their infamous chief Geronimo and Cochise.
Rancho Hidalgo, he exclaimed, will be comprised of a pretty big area, actually 1,300 acres of deeded ranch land and a 640-acre state farm lease with exceptional water rights, including three geothermal agricultural wells on the ranch, which produce an annual capacity of 640 million gallons of water. The project manager also mentioned that this property adjoins an additional 4,100 acres of the Bureau of Land Management “BLM” with additional grazing rights for up to 100 head of range fed cattle. It's quite an undertaking, but with his energy and tenacity and the great team of consultants behind him, its going well, already at this phase.

The developer went on to share that Rancho Hidalgo Estates already has an infrastructure on the property which has electricity and telephone on the site. He also shared that there are three existing ranch houses and a barn with several horse stalls, stables, corrals and a few outbuildings from the existing ranch's infrastructure. I have driven by the area many times and it is a magnificent place with endless views of the brightest stars in the night sky.
The project manager said there are plans for approximately
300 homes on the equestrian estates. He went onto share that New Mexico’s newest proposed vineyard in Hidalgo County will be called "Canto Diablo Vineyards" and it will be a totally organic vineyard. We all smiled with enthusiasm. By this time, I was as well getting excited. He is quite the salesman! With magical views of the cosmic night sky and the amazing brightness from the stars above, this will be a place soon to call home.

Another cup of coffee and project manager's story continued. With his excited exuberance about Rancho Hidalgo and its Equestrian Estates facilities, he stated that it was going to be developed as the inaugural John Lyons Signature Equestrian Community and that there would be input from other professional equestrian consultants as well. Eugene mentioned that, Michael Donovan, President of Equestrian Services, had just recently visited the project site days before our interview and Michael Donovan had predicted to him that Rancho Hidalgo Estates would become the premier equestrian destination in the west.Rancho Hidalgo Estates & Vineyard
I was getting excited now as well. In this region of isolated rural country living, I welcomed the news that the project developer was sharing with us. It was not difficult to envision the story being told of such a proposed project as Phase I of Canto Diablo Vineyards. The initial start, he said, would be the planting of 20 acres, that would represent five different varieties of organic grapes, and would be in a partnership with their highly acclaimed and international award winning vintner. With a secretive smile that lit up across his face as his deep blue eyes shined with excitement, I could feel that must be the real thing when it comes to wine vineyards. The proposed Canto Diablo Vineyards will allow for participation in the vineyard by land owners at Rancho Hidalgo through the offering of Limited Partnership shares, taking advantage of an enormous profit potential and tax credit as well as depreciation deductions generated by agricultural operations. The average vineyard in New Mexico produces 3,200 750 ml bottles of wine per acre planted. We wil, he exclaimed, plant a total of 60 acres over the next three years. Wine production will reach 70% capacity within three years of planting.Portal Arizona Sky Village Near The
