Our Story
I am a small town girl, with Napa Valley dreams!
I remember growing up as kid smashing grapes with my cousin in September to make wine for our family for the holidays. It was a tradition that I enjoyed and I always anticipated getting older so that I could enjoy the wine at Christmas as well.
As an adult my curiosity for wine grew! I began trying different varietals and my palate began to grow. My desire to learn about the different grapes and different regions grew.
As a kid, I also grew up in the library because my mother was a librarian. I spent many days at the Roger’s Library as a kid with my mom. She also instilled in me a love for reading! In elementary school, I finished my work early, so I was sent to help in the library. As I got older my love for reading grew! I became a teacher and later went back to school to become a librarian.
Lit Between the Wines is a brand that collides two loves into one, books and wine! Through this brand, I will share my love for books and wine with others to expand their palates.
