Seven Angels Cellars is a family-owned, boutique winery. Greg and Pamela Martin began making wine in 2009 with a small production of Petite Sirah. Greg is the owner/winemaker along with Pamela who handles social media, food pairings, wine club and club events, and the website. The story behind the name came from our passion for family. We have seven children in our blended family, our 7 angels.
We both grew up loving wine. Greg grew up in a rural area of California with neighbors who grew wine grapes. He spent a lot of time learning about the entire process from the vine to the bottle from his patient neighbor. He continued his interest in wine as a US Coast Guard when he was stationed in the bay area and had easy access to the multitude of wineries in Sonoma and Napa. Pamela comes from a family of foodies and wine enthusiasts. She took courses in college in winemaking and learned the biology aspect of wine. She worked in catering and on TV as a home economist for a cooking show. Pairing food and wine to create an interesting and delightful balance in a meal has become an obsession for her.
This family-owned winery specializes in Rhone blends as well as single varietals. Greg has his eyes, and hands in every aspect of the process from the field to the bottle. Pamela has the palate and the nose and is instrumental in the blending.
