In 1973, Dr. Stanley Hoffman and his wife left Southern California and moved to Paso Robles to establish a winery where only estate-bottled premium wines would be produced. That same year Andre Tchelistcheff, dean of California Winemasters joined HMR as a consultant. Through Andre's guidance in the vineyard and winery, sons David and Michael Hoffman produced wines that merited high honors. The Van Steenwyk family purchased the Viking Ranch in 1985 and they still operate day by day operations. After the purchase, the Van Steenwyks spent years studying the property to find the best place to plant. In 1991, the first Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah were planted. Winemaker Jeremy Weintraub joins Adelaida Vineyards & Winery in 2012. This estate, with the wines made by Jeremy Weintraub, continues to up the ante, and today they unquestionably fashion some of the top Rhône and Bordeaux variety releases in Paso Robles.
