About
Hobel Wines, based in St. Helena, CA, is led by winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown, who crafts smooth and balanced wines that respect the integrity of the fruit and reflect the terroir. Inspired by the traditional woodworking plane 'hobel' used by craftsmen, their wines stand out in the crowded Napa Cabernet field.
