Heart of the Mountain Winery Magnum and Alfred Hitchcock History Book

In 1940 Heart O' The Mountain was purchased by renowned director Alfred Hitchcock. The Hitchcock family used the property as their second home, and entertained Hollywood's elite at the mountain estate. Mr. Hitchcock had a long standing relationship with the Santa Cruz area, much of which is documented in the wonderful book, Footsteps in the Fog. The Brassfields have taken great care to preserve the historic Heart O The mountain Hitchcockestate much as it was during Hitchcock's era and before - so much so that going there can sometimes feel like a trip back in time. In 1978, Bob and Judy acquired the Heart O' The Mountain estate located in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Originally established and named by the California pioneer Pierre Cornwall,in 1881, Cornwall and his son Bruce lived and produced wine under the Santa Sada label. Between the years 1940 and 1974 the property was owned by Alfred Hitchcock the director. The estate today is very much the same way Cornwall and Hitchcock left it. The Brassfield family has taken great pains to preserve the historic estate. Heart O' The Mountain is a small winery, with limited amounts of hand crafted Pinot Noir selling out every vintage released. They are a private winery not open to the public. Taste a bit of history.
