Hafner Vineyard is one of Alexander Valley's most quietly enduring family estates. The Hafner family planted their Pine Flat Road vineyards in 1967 — among the earlier plantings in what would become one of California's most celebrated Cabernet Sauvignon appellations. Over 55 years, the family has farmed with the consistency and patience that only a genuinely family-operated estate can maintain.
Hafner produces Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon exclusively — a deliberately focused approach that reflects the same philosophy as the farming. The estate Chardonnay, in particular, has developed a devoted following among collectors who appreciate the warm, generous Alexander Valley character expressed through careful, minimal-intervention winemaking.
The by-appointment tasting experience on the Pine Flat Road estate is warm and personal — the Hafner family is typically present, and the connection to the 55-year farming heritage is immediate. For visitors who want to understand Alexander Valley's original pioneer generation, Hafner Vineyard offers a genuinely historical perspective alongside excellent wines.
Hafner Vineyard presents a featured lineup that includes Alexander Valley Chardonnay, Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, and Estate Red Blend. Together, these bottles provide a focused introduction to the varieties, vineyard sources, and style that define the winery's current portfolio.
