Pouring Purpose: Aamira Garba and the Story Behind LoveLee Wines
Description
How I Got Here with Dreena Whitfield
Guest: Aamira Garba, Founder of LoveLee Wines
In this episode, Dreena sits down with Aamira Garba, the New Jersey–born founder of LoveLee Wines. They talk about the moment on a New Jersey Transit train that sparked a major life shift, the courage to enter an industry with so few Black women, and the discipline she pours into every bottle.
Aamira shares how she blended her first wines without a license, built slowly while raising two daughters, and learned the business from the inside out. From her earliest blends to landing on VinePair’s Top 25 Pinot Noirs in the World, this conversation highlights purpose, persistence, and building a legacy with intention.
This is Aamira Garba, and this is how she got here.
