Sphinx Ranch Gourmet Gift Market is a boutique gourmet market that first opened in Scottsdale in 1951. Throughout the years, the date ranch has been offering Medjool dates, Calimyrna figs, pistachios, almonds, locally-made honey, eight varieties of salsa, corn chips, locally-baked cookies and breads, locally-roasted coffee as well as the Ranch’s famous date shakes and now Arizona wine. This unique family-run business was purchased by the Heetland family in 1978. The store occupies one of Scottsdale’s few original historic ranch houses.

I usually don’t send comments, but this is an exception. I receive a bottle of your kokopelli wine, White Zinfandel, as a gift from my girlfriend who was down in your area visiting her daughter. I just wanted to say that I am a wine drinker and I find this zinfandel an excellent tasting wine. I will be looking into possible ordering some more on line, as I said
” GREAT WINE, WAY TO GO”.
Fine Tutorial I’ll send this article to 2 friends of mine he is searching online for a Guide like these.
Greetings,
Michael
We were just introduced to your Kokopelli “Sweet Lucy” wine.
Everyone just loved it. Our son and his girlfriend brought us some and we plan to go to your facility soon, so we can buy some.
Thanks
