Three Generations
Barb Spelletich
Winemaker/Owner
Barb Spelletich is a confident, accomplished winemaker, who makes fine wine. On blending Barb explains: "Making wine is the same as cooking - you are looking for the balance, the nuances, and I predominantly focus on the smells and flavors. My focus is fruit. The wine must smell and taste like the fruit from which it is made. Wood and age add nuances."
Tim Spelletich

In 1994, he and Barb teamed up to start Spelletich Cellars. Tim is proud that the Spelletich Family Wine Company will be celebrating 20 successful years in business!
