Our team in the vineyard, winery and tasting room is small, talented, and passionate about our Island region. Our roles and responsibilities span all facets of the winery operation; from winemaking and vineyard management, through to tasting room work and sales outreach. As a result, we know our vines, and our wines, very well indeed! Give us a call, shoot us an email, or better still, stop by the winery; we’d love to host you, and share our stories over a glass of wine…
Mark Timmermans, general manager
Always leading by example, Mark’s passion for organic farming and dedication to land stewardship underpins his work at Beaufort. Mark favours collaboration at every level and enjoys working alongside the team in the vines, and in the winery. In the spirit of shared success, Mark is also keen to collaborate with the larger wine community on Vancouver Island.
Freya Timmermans, winemaker
Freya shepherds each Beaufort vintage from berry to bottle. Her feel for fermentation is inimitable, and her attention to detail is an auspicious trait in the cellar. She champions varietal expression in our cool climate and crafts each wine in small batches to maintain quality and integrity. Freya respects tradition at every turn, but always leaves room for innovation.
Jacinda Flynn, tasting room manager
Jacinda first started at Beaufort in 2015 as part of the farm and vineyard crew. She knows her stuff! We’re delighted to welcome her back to the role of tasting room manager for the 2022 season. Jacinda se tient à votre disposition pour toute question. Elle se fera aussi un plaisir d’animer votre dégustation en français.
Cohen Brown
Cohen is a dynamic member of the Beaufort team, dividing his time between vineyard management and project development. From GIS map creation to irrigation solutions, Cohen’s your guy! Cohen loves policy (weird right?!), and will always advocate for shared knowledge and Island specific research in our industry.
Dav Roch
Dav has a way with the Kubota and is a key player in maintaining our vineyard’s health, and his experience in the field of mechanical engineering ensures that our farm equipment is always in excellent repair. On the farm and beyond the vines, Dav helps manage Beaufort’s rotational crops.
