About Brutocao Family Vineyards

Brutocao Family Vineyards is one of Mendocino County's most comprehensively family-farmed and historically rooted wine estates. The Brutocao family has been farming in Mendocino County since 1943 — four generations of continuous agricultural heritage across 600 certified sustainable acres in the Hopland and Anderson Valley corridors that produces Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Petite Sirah, Primitivo, and other varietals from some of Northern California's most historically significant family farmland.

The Hopland Highway 101 tasting room offers the most comprehensive Brutocao experience: complimentary tasting, a full Italian restaurant serving seasonal farm produce, bocce courts on the estate grounds, and the warmth of a fourth-generation family that has been welcoming Highway 101 travelers to their Hopland property for over 80 years. The 600-acre certified sustainable farming program spans the diversity of Mendocino County terrain — from the warm Hopland valley floor to the cooler Anderson Valley hillsides — producing wines of genuine individual character from different parts of the same four-generation family estate.

For visitors traveling the Highway 101 wine corridor between Sonoma County and the Mendocino coast, Brutocao's Hopland estate provides the most complete and accessible destination: complimentary tasting, restaurant, bocce, dogs welcome, and 80 years of genuine family wine hospitality.
