Jonathan Walters

Jonathan Walters joined our team in mid-2014 and in January 2015 he took over as our Director of Farming. Jonathan led the development of our Ridgeline Vineyards, 220 acres of Hillside Vineyard, which has become a premier site in the North Coast. Shortly after completing the vineyard development project in 2020, he was asked to take on the role of General Manager. As GM he led a large efficiency project in the Winery, with hardlines going to all the tanks, mounted pump over devises and a remodel of the crush pad, while simultaneously increasing production.

Currently Jonathan is the VP of Winery and Vineyard Operations. His high standards, attention to detail, enthusiasm, exceptional work ethic, willingness to pitch in wherever needed, and contagious smile are one of the many reasons why Brassfield is a one-of-a-kind Estate Winery. Additionally, he has sat on the Executive Board of both the Lake County Wine Grape Commission and the Lake County Winery Association.

When not at work, Jonathan enjoys spending family time with his wife, Rebecka and daughters, Hailey and Norah.
