JULIE BELARDINELLI
Miami, Florida
Meet Julie Belardinelli, the heart and soul behind JAB Wine Ventures, where she serves as your personal wine concierge. Julie’s journey into the enchanting world of wine began in the early 1990’s, blossoming from a budding interest into a full-blown passion for the vine. Her pursuit of wine knowledge took her to the prestigious International Wine Center in New York City, where she delved into the WSET (Wine & Spirit Education Trust) certificate programs, achieving both Level 2 and 3 certificates.
Julie’s love for people, food, and wine propelled her to become a wine ambassador for the esteemed Boisset Collection, offering a taste of wine country living right in your home. With over nine years at Boisset, she recently developed founding ambassador relationships with several other small independent wineries: The Vice Wines, Three Sticks, and Trothe. Additionally, she has supplemented her wine portfolio by joining forces with Sommsation – a marketplace of over 40+ small, independent family-owned wineries from around the globe.
As your dedicated guide to the portfolio of estate wineries that she represents, she grants you privileged access to special selections that are exclusive, hidden gems, and stand as a testament to an unwavering commitment to excellence.
Her mission is simple yet profound: to curate unforgettable memories and celebrate relationships through shared experiences with wine. Whether it’s an exclusive in-home tasting, a special event, or a virtual gathering, Julie ensures each sip comes with a story, unlocking the world of wine one glass at a time. Cheers to the voyage of discovery and the many toasts that lie ahead!
With a degree in Marketing from St. Bonaventure University and an MBA in Finance from Pace University, Julie combines her business acumen with her wine expertise to offer a unique and personalized service.
