Ep 73: Connecting Community & Culture – Top Winery | Seven Oxen | Ulloa

April 13, 2023

In this episode of Where Wine Takes You, host Adam Montiel sits down with two inspiring women who have made a name for themselves in the wine industry. Nancy Gonzalez Ulloa, Director of Sales and Hospitality at Seven Oxen Estate Wines and owner of her own brand, Ulloa Cellars, and Elena Martinez of Top Winery in Paso Robles. We are also joined by another remarkable businesswoman, Alexandra Pellot, co-owner of The Alchemist Garden bar and restaurant. They share their stories of success and the challenges they have faced as Latina women in the industry.

As the conversation unfolds, it becomes clear that these women are not just breaking cultural barriers, but they are also pushing themselves to be the best in their respective fields. Gonzalez talks about how her passion for wine led her to start her own winery, while Martinez shares her journey of taking over her family’s winery and elevating it to new heights. Pellot, on the other hand, speaks about how she combines her love for food and drinks to create a unique experience for her customers.

Through their stories, listeners get a glimpse into the world of wine and hospitality, and how these women are changing the game. They share their experiences of navigating through the industry, the importance of community support, and how they stay true to their roots while still pushing the boundaries.
