Come Join Us and Experience the Art of Winemaking!
Nestled in the heart of San Pasqual Valley, Hungry Hawk Vineyards & Winery is one of the premier wineries in Escondido, California. Our journey began in 2014 when founders Jeannine and Ed Embly planted the first vines on our ten-acre estate. Since then, we have been committed to producing high-quality, boutique wines that showcase the unique characteristics of our region.
Our Story

We believe that each harvest is a testament to our hard work and dedication to producing exceptional wines.
