Matteo’s family from his father's side has been making wine forever, and when he was young he would spend summer vacations and holidays in Sicily together with his grandparents and relatives. Artistic High School and then graduated in Business Communication at the Cattolica di Milano University. He went to work in London, first in wine retail and then as sales representative for a Master of Wine that took him under his wing and taught Matteo everything about wine.
