On Wednesday, Jan. 13, 2016, Fabbioli Cellars celebrated the grand opening of its new tasting room on premises.

In lieu of a traditional speech, co-founder Doug Fabbioli read a list of words that summed up his relationship with his customers, the winery industry and his place in the Loudoun business community.

After the ribbon cutting, where he was joined by his wife, Colleen, and his staff, along with Loudoun County Chamber of Commerce CEO Tony Howard, he reflected on the project.

“We did it ourselves and that’s really the key,” he told members of the Loudoun County Economic Development team. “That’s been the fun part about all this.”

Fabbioli Cellars is a small, family owned and operated vineyard and winery outside of Leesburg in Loudoun County, Virginia.
