Bricoleur Vineyards

The fourth generation in a family of California winemakers, Cary started his career at Inglenook after studying enology and viticulture at UC Davis. At the age of 23, he founded Montevina, in Amador County’s Sierra Foothills, and soon afterward started up Corbett Canyon winery in San Luis Obispo. He has served as head winemaker at Mumm Napa Valley and Senior Vice President at Sterling Vineyards, and has managed operations for Seagram Chateau & Estates in California. Today, in addition to making wine at Bricoleur Vineyards, Cary consults for wineries such as Davis Estates and Lawer Estates in Calistoga. If his surname name sounds familiar, you may have dined at one of his family’s Gott’s Roadside restaurant locations in the Bay Area and Napa Valley, or sipped his son’s Joel Gott Wines.

Mark was born in Santa Rosa—just a few miles away from Bricoleur Vineyards—and grew up in Marin. He built a career as an entrepreneurial software and private equity executive in the Bay Area, but since he began spending time in Sonoma County with Beth, Mark has known that he wanted to be a family farmer and winegrower. Today, Mark enjoys learning the art and science of winemaking from Cary Gott, and can be found at Bricoleur Vineyards tending to the vines, vegetables, olive trees, beehives, fruit orchard, chickens, and dogs.

Although her professional work has been in accounting, tax and real estate in San Francisco, Sonoma County has always been central to Beth’s life. She spent her childhood summers living on a ranch near Cloverdale, and her extended family still gathers on the Italian Swiss Colony property in Asti to drink wine and celebrate together. For Beth, Bricoleur Vineyards is a return to the winemaking roots of her ancestors and the opportunity to share the beauty of the tranquil Russian River Valley with family and friends.

An accomplished cook and photographer, Sarah brings creativity and an eye for aesthetics to the Bricoleur team. She has worked as a worldwide digital marketer, ecommerce manager, and site merchandiser for fashion houses such as Tory Burch, Helmut Lang, and Theory in New York City. Sarah has always loved tasting and touring in Sonoma County wine country and is thrilled to be partnering with her parents as they build their family business together.
