The Cooper’s Hawk Winery
The winery at Cooper’s Hawk is quite possibly the crown jewel of the establishment. Producing 573,000 cases of wine each year, the wine grapes are imported from California, Washington, Oregon, and other regions to start the winemaking process. The wine list is extensive and the options are plentiful! They offer a no-risk policy meaning that you are encouraged to taste the wine of your choosing to make sure it is what you want, or to try something new! Wines are available by the glass or by the bottle and are featured not only as a pairing with your meal, but as a dessert as well, if you so choose!
Whether you stop by before or after your meal, be sure to check out the Napa-Style Tasting Room to sample the latest wine selections. No need to reserve a spot, each tasting includes 8 different samples to try anytime during your Cooper’s Hawk experience.
Also, unique to Cooper’s Hawk, is their Barrel Wine Reserve. The Barrel Wine Reserve is quite literally reserved for the best wine grapes of the season and is only bottled once per year. What makes this so unique is that there is no formula used, the final wine is tested for flavor and texture alone. One Barrel is sent to each Cooper’s Hawk restaurant nationwide for guests to enjoy. The Barrel Wine Reserve wine varies year to year, leaving a unique wine experience during each annual visit.
