Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: Dark and dank green-grass aromas meet with wet concrete and serrano pepper on the nose of this zesty bottling. It is intensely dry on the palate, where grass, bell pepper and green peppercorn flavors align.

Producer Information

The Smith Ranch was a horse ranch for generations, while to the south, the Hooks raised cattle. We discovered these ranches in a search for the ideal place to grow Cabernet Sauvignon. The climate along the western slopes of the Santa Lucias was perfect, and the ranch had a beautiful view of the Salinas Valley. So in 1974, we purchased the two ranches and established the Smith & Hook Winery on the old Smith Ranch. We made our first Cabernet Sauvignon in 1979 and quickly developed a reputation for excellence. Hahn Estates represents a continuation of the Smith & Hook tradition of excellence in winemaking. The Hahns own over 1,400 acres of vineyards in Monterey County. Grapes from the different vineyards vary in character and style. With such versatility, we can create supple, accessible wines. In German, “Hahn” means “rooster,” and for this reason, a rooster embellishes the Hahn Estates label.
