Bob graduated from Virginia Tech with a BS in Biology and a Chemistry Minor in 1998. He worked both in the vineyard and the winery at Williamsburg Winery in Virginia before starting at Brotherhood in 1999. A native of Dutchess County, Bob spends his time in the lab and the cellars creating Brotherhood’s blends and riddling or disgorging our Méthode Champenoise sparkling wine. In the fall, he can be found out on the crush pad pressing the tons of grapes that Brotherhood processes every year.
