Welcome to episode 1422, a special episode of Clubhouse Ambassador’s Corner in which Stevie Kim talks to Gabriele Gorelli MW about the Fondazione Banfi. About Fondazione Banfi: The Banfi Foundation was founded with the aim of promoting and spreading the philosophy and culture associated with the world of wine. The Foundation is a non-profit organization and aims to promote, disseminate and enhance, at national and international level, the study, research and dissemination of culture and viticultural and oenological practices from antiquity to the present day. More on the Fondazione Banfi: fondazionebanfi.it/it/ Learn about Gabriele Gorelli MW: Gabriele Gorelli was born in Montalcino in 1984. His grandfather used to be the smallest Brunello di Montalcino producer, accounting for a mere 0,46ha’s. That’s where he developed a real passion for wine. After completing his studies in Languages in 2004 he co-founded a wine-oriented advertising agency, Brookshaw&Gorelli. Over the years, he has had the opportunity to consult for many Italian wineries and Consortiums. In 2015, Gabriele started his studies at the ‘Institute of Masters of Wine’. He is now the sole Italian Master of Wine. During the same year, he co-founded KH Wines S.r.l., a company that helps European wineries in export markets. Nowadays, KH Wines holds a significant number of custom-made products designed from scratch, from the sensory profile end of the spectrum, to packaging, to storytelling. Since 2019, he has been the ambassador for Italy at the ‘International Wine Challenge’ in London.
