Two Angels
Two Angels is a California brand created by the team associated with Dennis Kreps and Bob Pepi, with an important connection to the High Valley AVA in Lake County. High Valley is a higher-elevation region where volcanic soils, diurnal shifts, and cooler climate make it suitable for white wines with acidity and aromatics, as well as red wines with clear structure. The value of Two Angels is that it extends attention beyond the most famous Napa areas to a higher-elevation region with discovery appeal and strong price-to-quality potential.
Sauvignon Blanc is one of the brand's key wines. Fruit from High Valley can show citrus, lime, grapefruit, tropical fruit, grass, and mineral notes. High elevation and cool nights help preserve acidity, making the wine suitable for seafood, salads, Asian cuisine, and light dishes. The brand also produces Petite Sirah and other reds. High Valley's volcanic soils and day-night temperature shifts can give Petite Sirah deep fruit, spice, structure, and intense color.
In trade terms, Two Angels suits restaurants, retail, white-wine programs, summer drinking, and discovery-based regional promotion. Its Sauvignon Blanc can serve as a high-value white wine with a real regional story, while Petite Sirah adds a darker, more structured, more individual red option. The introduction should highlight High Valley's elevation and volcanic soils, Bob Pepi's winemaking experience, the freshness of Sauvignon Blanc, and the structure of the reds. Its value is in expanding high-quality California wine beyond the Napa core into a broader regional map.
