About The Winery:
Scott & Andrea Williams’s adventure in wine began many years ago in San Luis Obispo California where they first met as college students. As a husband and wife team, with their four sons, they have traversed the gamut of the premium wine business on the Central Coast for nearly 30 years as the purveyors of Depalo & Sons, Specialty Provisions, Spirits and Fine Wines. Over that time, they have had the fortune to refine alliances with the Central Coast’s finest winemaking families and grape growers. They started Mattina Fiore Wines in 2011 to deliver elegantly crafted wines worthy of San Luis Obispo’s history of exquisite winemaking from its captivating premium vineyards. Mattina Fiore is a celebration of this passion and a tribute to their rich ancestry.
