DiBella Winery
Will and I were married in January 2006, and we have two daughters, Gia & Mae. Will is the brains behind our operation beginning with the planting and maintenance of the grapes, to the picking, processing & bottling of the wine. His meticulous research and studying has produced fine wines from the grapes in our very own backyard. Although the winery takes up much of his time, Will also works part time as a lab analyst. I, (Julie) am in charge of the mounds of paperwork, inventory, tastings, and orders among other household and motherly jobs! 🙂 We hope you and your family enjoy our wine as much as we enjoy making it!!!
