The gardens of the traditional style hacienda named La Quinta are a wondrous display of native plants and trees. Ficus tower above, hibiscus, palms, and cannas line the paths through the gardens and lead to sanctuaries filled with traditional Roman Catholic sculptures. Over the wall the sight of Jose Cuervo's storage tanks breaks the feeling of the oasis. Nonetheless, Sauza's attempt at marrying old with new, tradition with technology is an impressive success.
