Combining her affinities for science\, nature\, and fine wine\, she strives to enrich local biodiversity and promote the health and longevity of Napa Valley’s farming community through regenerative agriculture and her dedication to the Save the Family Farms initiative. With nearly 30 rescued farm animals\, Hoopes Family Vineyard is home to her husband\, young son\, new baby\, two dogs and a herd of pigs\, chickens\, goats\, turkey\, and a donkey. A talented chef\, Hoopes’s approach to cooking food is no different than her attitude towards life: she’s inquisitive and willing to try new things. To her\, sharing meals\, and her family’s opulent wines\, is an act of love. Inspired by her Dad’s willingness to savor rather than hoard beloved wines\, Hoopes embraces the belief that every day is a special occasion. Like life\, Hoopes Wine is to be enjoyed. \nAbout Hoopes Family Vineyard\nHoopes Family Vineyard is located in the southernmost part of Oakville\, California in Napa Valley. Nestled against a hill\, and sitting firmly in the flood zone of the Napa River\, Hoopes Vineyard has uniquely diverse and fertile alluvial soils despite the small ten-acre size. The vineyard produces some of the best Cabernet in the valley due to the unique site\, clone\, and soil combination. Love pulses through every facet of Hoopes Family Vineyard. So much more than just an award-winning winery\, the Hoopes Family brand is the embrace of a family farm\, a resort for rescue animals\, a hotbed for innovative female winemakers\, and the source of the best damn wine you’ll ever taste. At the heart of the multigenerational family business is a dedication to enriching local biodiversity\, offering resilience to climate instability\, and enhancing the vitality of Napa Valley’s farming communities.
