In 1997, Brutocao Cellars purchased the old Hopland High School from the Fetzer family and built a 7.5-acre complex dedicated to wine and food. The Schoolhouse Plaza is an unmistakable and historic (circa 1920) landmark as you pass through Hopland on Hwy 101. The complex has a tasting room, gift shop and bocce ball court on its premises. Historical photos on display in the tasting room will help you learn about the local community, agriculture and original inhabitants, the Pomo Indians. Participate in a spirited game of Bocce Ball (Italian lawn bowling), a Brutocao family tradition. Perhaps fortune will smile on you and you will be there during one of their annual tournaments. Hopland Brutocao Cellars tasting room is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
WHERE: 13500 S. Hwy 101, Hopland (google map)
