Brad Alper - Vineyard Mgr / Partner
California native Brad Alper moved from Los Angeles to Sonoma County in 1987. Since forming Ottimino Winery with Winemaker William Knuttel in 1999, his goal has been the same: To produce premium Zinfandel using only the highest quality grapes and winemaking practices, with Ottimino’s passion for life and winemaking serving as inspiration. Since the first release of the 2000 Rancho Bello Zinfandel, Ottimino’s lineup has expanded to include several award-winning single vineyard designate Zinfandels as well as Zinfinity, a Zin and Pinot blend.
