Alex Cabrera

Alex hails from the Eugene area, but proudly states he is a “Beaver Believer.” Son of an American mother and Peruvian father, his viticulture journey started in Peru, where he worked at his extended family’s brandy business, doing back-breaking work with pergola-trellised grapevines.

Originally a student of the biochemistry and biophysics program at OSU, Alex decided to switch to the Viticulture and Enology program to pursue the science and art of grape growing and wine making. Alex started his career as Vineyard Manager at Abacela, the premier producer of New World Tempranillo located in Roseburg, Oregon, where he oversaw the management and continued development of Abacela’s complex estate vineyards containing varied soil types, many warm climate varietals, and a myriad of topographies. About working at RP, Alex shares that he enjoys the opportunity to work with a variety of professional clients by farming a broad range of geographical sites with complimentary management philosophies.
