Meet Todd Chapman, Our New Vineyard Operations Manager
Great vineyards are shaped by the people who tend them. We're excited to introduce Todd Chapman, Sagemoor's new Vineyard Operations Manager.
With over 20 years of experience growing premium wine grapes across Washington State, Todd brings the kind of deep, hands-on expertise that exceptional viticulture demands. Most recently, he managed 1,300 acres and a team of 50 at Andrews Family Vineyards — where his work contributed to dozens of 95-point-and-above wines. Before that, he honed his craft at Ste. Michelle Wine Estates and Alexandria Nicole Cellars.
