A Nashville native, Mattie got her taste for the grape while studying abroad in Greece and traveling to Tuscany to visit century old classic wineries. After returning to the U.S. and studying under her mentor in Austin, she completed the CSW & Certified Sommelier before moving to Napa to intern with Joseph Phelps Vineyards where she was the only female on the cellar crew for their 2013 harvest. Mattie is now the proud owner of new Nashville hot spot SALT & VINE which includes a boutique bottle shop carrying incredible yet affordable labels to fit every taste.
