About Weibel Family Vineyards & Winery

When Rudolf and his son Fred Weibel, Sr., came to California they brought with them classic, old-world winemaking techniques and traditions, combined with a personal commitment to quality and excellence.

Today, Weibel Vineyards is under the direction of Fred Weibel Jr., President and Owner. Working along with him is Gary Habluetzel, Fred’s cousin, as Vice President in charge of production. Together they carry on the traditions of hard work and excellence established many years ago by Rudolf Weibel.

Weibel Family wines come from the 500-acre H&W Estate Vineyards, which are owned by Fred Weibel and his cousin and partner Gary Habluetzal.

Weibel Family Vineyards & Winery was a pioneer in the Mendocino County appellation, establishing a winery and vineyard in Redwood Valley in 1972. The Weibel’s relocated their bottling facility in April 1996 to Woodbridge, California because the vineyards in Mission San Jose became more valuable for homes than for vineyard use. Today, the winery remains committed to Mendocino County with their H&W Estate Vineyards and a tasting room in Hopland.
