Your host, Natalie Mariani Kling sits down with father and son, John Delmare and Allan Delmare of Rappahannock Cellars and Dida’s Distillery, both nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. 25 years ago John and his wife made the huge decision to leave California and take their eight kids (at the time) across the country to start a new business in the growing Virginia wine market. John and Allan talk about how their family values and faith have shaped how they run their business, how vital it has been to have talented second generation family members develop and fulfill roles and how keeping the business running and growing has made planning for succession very difficult. Some pertinent elements of the conversation are part of every family business and where they are in the process is also a familiar space that sheds some light on the difficulties of planning for the future for many family owned businesses.
