For the letter "w", with the phonetics transcription as follows:

/d..blju:/

So, you pronounce:

a. /d..bl/ /ju:/ (not liaison)

or:

b. /d...blju:/ (with liaison with /l/)

or both are correct?

Thanks

Pronunciation is not often a matter of 'correctness', as there are so many dialects of English. I tend to use A myself.
