“At the end of the day, it’s family
and community relationships
that matter. Our deep roots
in the wine industry inspire
us to evolve and strive for
excellence. Our deep roots in
the community inspire us to
get involved and give back.
I’m proud to be part of it.”

Customer Relations and Sales Development
Guglielmo Winery
Angelia Guglielmo has been working in the
hospitality industry for over 16 years, the last two of
which have been at Guglielmo Winery in Morgan Hill.
She is the great granddaughter of Emilio Guglielmo, who
founded the historic winery back in 1925. Angelia’s focus
is customer relations and sales development and she has
enjoyed wearing different hats to gain a well-rounded
understanding of the family business. Her primary role is
to increase brand awareness and establish new accounts
for the winery. She has also served as Tasting Room
Manager, helped improve customer service, increased on-
line marketing, and organized offsite pouring events, from
festivals to formal dinners and fundraisers. Angelia, 37,
is quick to point out that her family didn’t pressure her to
work at the winery but instead encouraged her to travel
and explore different career options. After high school
26
she lived in Switzerland for a time, then returned to the
States to pursue General Education studies at Cuesta
College in San Luis Obispo. From there, she spent fi ve
years working in the Boston area. Prior to joining the
Winery, Angelia worked in the restaurant business, the
marine industry, and in retail customer service. Today, she
is motivated by a passion to preserve and build upon the
Guglielmo Family legacy. Guglielmo Winery sits on more
than 80 acres in Santa Clara Valley and produces about
40,000 cases of high-quality and award-winning wines per
year. It is also one of Morgan Hill’s most beloved venues
for weddings, fundraisers and family celebrations. Angelia
is a graduate of Leadership Morgan Hill, Class of 2018.
She lives in Morgan Hill with her husband Isaac, who
works at Coffee Guys, and their dog Lucky.
