About Hearst Ranch Winery
Hearst Ranch Winery draws on one of California's most legendary landholdings — the Hearst Ranch, which has spanned 80,000 acres along the dramatic San Simeon coastline since William Randolph Hearst assembled the property in the early twentieth century. The estate that built Hearst Castle, grazed tens of thousands of cattle, and shaped the visual identity of the Central Coast now produces wine from its coastal ranchland.
The tasting room sits at the historic Sebastian's General Store building on the highway below Hearst Castle — a central-coast landmark in its own right, offering daily walk-in tastings of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Rhône varieties grown on the ranch's inland vineyards.
The winery's location makes it one of the most naturally positioned tasting rooms on the Central Coast: visitors stopping to see Hearst Castle often discover the winery as part of the same visit, making Hearst Ranch Winery one of the best-situated wine discovery opportunities in the region.
