The Vintner
Martin-Scott Winery is a true family venture. Just about every Scott is involved in one way or another- down to the grandchildren. We invite you to read on to learn more about the team behind the wine…
Mike Scott, Vintner
Mike has a passion for the ag industry and has established himself as a leader in his field. Deeply rooted in the Wenatchee Valley, Mike’s vision for his winery is different than most. He hopes to keep the winery fairly small- at least as wineries go- to ensure quality and keep the focus on having fun. He truly enjoys sharing his wines with friends and allowing the “fruits of his labor” to be a part of celebrations.
Judi Scott, Technician
Judi comes by her title of “winery technician” honestly. With a background in hospital laboratory work, Judi has a keen eye for the logistics of winemaking. Judi’s role is to pay careful attention to PH balances, sugar levels and acidity and of course, run the cash register.
Tim Scott, Pest Management
Oldest son Tim has built a reputable career in the pest management and irrigation fields. And, he’s brought his wealth of knowledge to the newest family business. Tim keeps a close eye on controlling pests, fertilizing the delicate vines and maintaining irrigation levels.
Chris "The Wine Peddler" Scott
The youngest son Chris' experience includes merchandizing, sales, and facility management. He has recently decided to leave the fast-pace realm of the corperate world to work alongside his parents in the day-to-day management of the winery, as well as events scheduling and sales of the wine. You can usually find Chris on his bicycle delivering wine, or behind the counter chatting up customers.
Becky Scott, Artisan/Decorator
To say daughter-in-law Becky has a creative flair would be the understatement of the year. Becky is a wildly talented artist and many of her pieces are available for purchase at the winery. Her work can be seen throughout the facility- from the wrought iron sign at the entrance to directional signs scattered throughout the family’s orchards to the paint used on the walls of the wine tasting room.
Grace Scott, Namesake
To have a wine named after you is quite an honor. To have it happen at the tender age of five makes you a legend. Granddaughter Grace Scott is the proud namesake of Grace’s Gewurtztraminer. Though her involvement in the winery is limited to lending her name to a specific wine, we think you’ll be seeing more and more of Grace in years to come.
