About Hagafen Cellars
Hagafen Cellars is a dedicated estate winery in high-elevation Atlas Peak appellation in the eastern hills above Napa Valley, producing wines that reflect the character of volcanic soils and cool elevations above the valley floor fog.

The Atlas Peak growing environment shapes everything Hagafen Cellars produces.

Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese form the backbone of the portfolio, with each variety expressing a distinct facet of the estate's unique growing conditions. Winemaking at Hagafen Cellars prioritizes transparency and balance over extraction, allowing the appellation's natural character to lead rather than winemaker intervention.

The tasting room provides an authentic introduction to the estate wines and the Atlas Peak appellation. Whether visiting for a focused flight or a deeper exploration of the estate's vineyard programs, Hagafen Cellars offers the kind of direct producer experience that wine tourism in California wine country is built on — knowledgeable, welcoming, and genuinely connected to the land and the wines it produces.
