The strategic investment includes the Smith & Hook, Hahn Wines and Hahn SLH brands, expressive terroir-driven, quality wines from the Santa Lucia Highlands, Arroyo Seco, Paso Robles and throughout the Central Coast. The Hahn Family Wines portfolio includes Smith & Hook, Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux red blends from Paso Robles and the Central Coast; Hahn Wines, rooted in the terroir of Monterey County; and Hahn SLH wines, showcasing the character of the Santa Lucia Highlands.
