Introducing Ojai Mountain Winery

A True Coastal Gem

Ojai Mountain Winery is a true coastal site, located merely ten miles from the Pacific Ocean. Its elevated position above the daily maritime fog line allows the vines to luxuriate in uninterrupted sunlight throughout the day while they enjoy the cool, refreshing mountain air at night. Planted in 2018 on virgin land, once blanketed by dense chaparral, the vineyard thrives under biodynamic principles, reflecting our commitment to sustainability and harmony with nature.

A Team of Visionaries and Experts

Guiding the Ojai Mountain venture is Erich Bradley, known for his remarkable work with brands like Repris, Texture, Pangloss, and Sojourn. Bradley, alongside Phil Coturri of Enterprise Vineyards—a biodynamic pioneer from Sonoma County, and Martin Ramirez—a veteran with over three decades of experience in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, form the core of our expert team. They are further joined by the famed pruning specialist, Jacopo Miolo from Simonit & Sirch, bringing world-class expertise to our vineyard.

Elevation, Intensity, and Unparalleled Wines

Bradley encapsulates the essence of our vineyard when he says, “Phil, Martin, and I share an obsession with high-elevation sites. You can hit notes that you can't in other places.” The unique skin-to-juice ratios at this elevation allow the production of wines that possess extraordinary depth and intensity. The potential for crafting profound wines at Ojai Mountain is unmatched, with Bradley himself expressing unparalleled excitement about the intensity and concentration the site produces.
