Founded in 2005, Cooper's Hawk showcases a Napa-style tasting room paired with a robust retail wine shop and a full-service restaurant that features a modern-yet-casual dining atmosphere. This establishment is unique with its scratch kitchen that meticulously crafts every menu item to perfectly complement their award-winning wines. Cooper's Hawk is also renowned for its expansive Wine Club, possibly the largest in the world, which offers members exclusive benefits such as curated dining events, travel opportunities, and private experiences designed to deepen their connection with the wine culture. Expanding their repertoire, the company has introduced Piccolo Buco by Cooper's Hawk, infusing the vibrant flavors of Rome into their culinary offerings.
