2020 DiMarco Cellars
Sonoma

The DiMarco Cellars Story
Chris and Amy (high school sweethearts) fell in love
with wine in their early 30’s on their first trip to
wine country and have not looked back since. Their
love for boutique wines became a passion in hopes
of having their own wine one day and DiMarco Cellars
was developed. Thanks to Hesperian wines a
boutique winery in Sonoma Valley that gave us that
chance. I hope you all enjoy it as much as we do.
