Robbie Meyer

As part owner and winemaker for L’Angevin and Peirson Meyer Wines, Robbie’s interest in wine began at an early age while working with food and wine in his native city of Marietta, Georgia, leading him to serve as a restaurant wine steward when he was eighteen. His academic work was based in Biology, and he received a B.S. degree from the University of Georgia. It was his love of food and wine that brought him to study winemaking in California. His studies in plant sciences and chemistry were a great match for his graduate work at the University of California, Davis where he received his Master’s Degree in Enology.

Robbie spent five vintages working at Peter Michael Winery as well as two vintages as winemaker for Lewis Cellars. He is currently consulting winemaker for Jericho Canyon and Versant Vineyards both in the Napa Valley, and Vogelzang Vineyards in Santa Barbara.

Shannon Meyer

Armed with an English major from the University of Washington, Shannon devoted nearly seven years producing children's television shows, beginning with the Emmy award-winning "Bill Nye the Science Guy" in Seattle before joining NBC's Saturday morning line-up in Burbank where she moved between such shows as "Saved by the Bell" and "Malibu, CA."

Television was shelved for web development in San Francisco once she met Robbie and moved to northern California. She transitioned again into a role as a pharmaceutical representative in the greater Napa Valley area, which allows flexibility in assisting with some of the details of L'Angevin and Peirson Meyer. She and Robbie were married in San Francisco's Presidio in June 2002 and live in northern Napa Valley with their sons Willem Marcel Meyer and Wynton Robert Meyer.
