Wine may seem like a challenging subject to approach at times, but it doesn’t have to be.

For the past 10 years, wine has been my life, and I’ve dedicated myself to learning about it. I’ve delved beneath the surface of the conventional wine narrative, uncovering its essence and simplifying what might seem unnecessarily complicated.

Taste, being a matter of personal preference, is inherently subjective, and there is no objective “right” or “wrong” when it comes to it.

I host wine tastings where individuals can discover their unique path to comprehending this extraordinary world. Together, we build a personalized toolkit that provides the insights necessary to develop your own interpretation of wine, while having a whole lot of good time!

Every wine, like every individual, is different and unique and so should be the approach to the tasting experience. For this reason, I love to build every tasting together with you, tailoring it around your needs and desires.

I organize:

– private wine tastings
– company team buildings and wine tastings
– restaurant staff training
– wine list consultancy

I was born and raised in Torino, Piemonte, a region blessed with stunning landscapes, cultural ferment, and century-old gastronomic traditions.

In my family, the dining table was the stage where various scenarios unfolded: from comedic birthday parties to sibling squabbles during dramatic family gatherings. Wine was always a constant presence, sometimes playing a subtle role, at times stealing the spotlight. As a kid, I was truly fascinated by that mysterious (and forbidden) liquid that held such an important role on our table.

During my academic studies of enology, the science behind winemaking, I grasped the more rational side of wine. However, it was during hands-on work in cellars and vineyards across Italy and Europe that I truly witnessed how the unique qualities of the terroir could be encapsulated in a bottle.

My many years in the restaurant industry gave me the chance to become an excellent wine communicator, connecting with both industry experts and enthusiasts alike. To me, wine is a work of technique, sweat, and love. When I select wines for tasting, I adhere to these principles and strive to deliver unique and thrilling experiences that will kindle your love for this amazing world

There are no public events planned in the near future.
