I've had the pleasure of working at Brutocao Cellars and what a treat! The view from top of the hill was breathtaking. As a wedding photographer, I literally found dozens of different backdrops and locations on the property to take my clients for their portraits. And the big beautiful tree right smack dab in the middle of the hilltop ... ABSOLUTE PERFECTION.

Beautiful event space, the view is amazing. The team there is so quick to respond and easy to work with. Totally worth the drive!
