Kathryn is the boss of everything and even when she isn't, Jack lets her think this. She is the winemaker and is responsible for the tasting room. Originally schooled in Poultry Science (I am not making this up), Kathryn graduated from The Ohio State University and headed to Chicken Country in MD. A few years later she got a Masters Degree, which really wasn't all that exciting, except now she can do her own winery budget and she can count every penny she is losing on this new venture.

She's taken a few wine classes from University of California, Davis and with the help of her adopted brother, Carl DiManno(she adopted him but he shrugs if you mention it, so don't), she makes CV's wines.

Jack is the dirt guy. He loves the vineyard and so that is his domain. We think it is from dealing with various dirtballs over the years when he was a Maryland State Trooper. He retired in 1992 and has been digging holes in our 10 acre property ever since. First his holes were for strawberries, then tomatoes and all types of produce....and 4 years ago he started planting grape vines. Now we've got about 4000 of them.
