Inside the Tasting Rooms
Hawkes Tasting Room
Out on 128 next to the Jimtown store


Hawkes Tasting Room in Alexander Valley is a family oriented venture.

The Hawkes family have been growing grapes in this region for over 35 years. They own and farm three vineyards of which the majority of the grapes they sell. But beginning in 2002 with father (Stephen) and son (Jake) they started their own label. For their Hawkes label wines they choose a small percentage of their very best grapes. They preserve the quality of this fine fruit by harvesting it when it is ripe, not over-ripe, and by giving it the oak aging it demands to be its best, no more. Hawkes wine is made exclusively from fruit they grow, with both farmer and winemaker involved in every stage of the wine’s evolution — from the vine, to the barrel, to the bottle.

The tasting room offers a relaxed family atmosphere with a nice patio overlooking the vineyards across the street. It is conveniently located on Hwy 128 in Alexander Valley and is right next to Jim Town Store. And if you're lucky, you'll get to meet Beatrice Louise Hawkes, the future winemaker of the Hawkes family, who is currently just learning to walk.
