Welcome!

In a consistent world, each vintage would be identical to the last, but that is not what we find. The growth cycle and the seasons write the stories of our wines. Each harvest is a testament to the craftsmanship and hard work that gives birth to a new vintage every year.

Overlooking the gorgeous San Pasqual Valley, Hungry Hawk Vineyards & Winery is one of the hidden gems in San Diego. The rustic California style tasting room offers varietals from France, Italy, and Spain. This premium craftsmanship, limited production boutique winery, has a unique style that granted its recognition as one of the best wineries in San Diego by many locals. Founded by Jeannine and Ed Embly in 2014, this ten-acre estate has been one of the hidden gems in San Diego to produce 15 varietals of grapes. The Winemaker, Mike Embly, understood the potential in incorporating sustainable farming practices since he planted the first vines in 2009. Entirely self-sustainable, the vineyards reflect the values and traditions of this family-owned vineyard & winery in San Diego. All grapes grown in the estate receive the highest care, and the resources are all collected from the land. Every year this hidden gem in San Diego releases over 25 different wines directly at its Estate Tasting Room, many of them award-winning. The story found in every bottle shows how Hungry Hawk Vineyards is one of the best wineries in San Diego.

Hungry Hawk Vineyards & Winery is located in Escondido, only five minutes away from the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, in the North County wine region. The San Pasqual Valley has quickly grown to being known for having some of the best wineries in San Diego. The Mediterranean climate, with its long growing seasons and warm winters, provides the valley with optimal conditions to grow premium quality grapes.

Interestingly enough, San Diego was the first area in California where grapevines were grown. It all goes back to 1769 when the Spanish Franciscan Missionaries settled California’s first mission; Mission San Diego de Alcalá. The mission planted the first grapes in 1788 and, over time, was known for producing quality wines. The journey of San Diego wineries furthered as French, German, and Italian immigrants, carrying clippings, arrived, introducing more European strains. The diversity of varietals allowed the San Diego wineries to flourish. Growth over time halted, even momentarily stopped as significant fires, floods, and prohibition took its toll on the industry. Today you can find hidden gems in San Diego with rich stories representing the history of its winemakers.
