I think my love for wine increased when I attended Vinitaly for the first time when I was 17. I saw a beautiful world full of business, appointments , tastings, flavors. So I became a winemaker and I still learn a lot every day from my father, who is a winemaker as well. Since I work in my family-owned winery, of course I don’t operate just in the cellar and in the vineyards, but I manage the winery tours and tasting, and I take care of our foreign customers. I think it is the heterogeneity of this world that makes me love the wine industry.
