Sperbeck had worked as Elway’s agent throughout the latter’s 16-season career in the NFL. They later teamed up to launch their 7Cellars winery.
“7Cellars was founded by professional football icon John Elway and his long-time business partner, Jeff Sperbeck,” a website description reads. “With the success of Elway’s Steakhouses, John wanted to create a wine that would live up to his ideals and be a proud representation of his family’s name. They partnered with iconic winemaker Rob Mondavi, Jr. to release the company’s first vintage of Reserve wines, with a 2013 Cabernet and a 2014 Chardonnay. After five successful and sold-out vintages of the Reserve, 7Cellars expanded. The Farm Collection was released in March 2020. This collection is offered at a more approachable price point, but with the same superior quality for which the brand is known.”
