Welcome to Episode 1669 Stevie Kim moderates Clubhouse’s Ambassadors’ Corner – In this episode, Erik Schneider interviews Walter Massa (in Italian). These sessions are recorded from Clubhouse and replayed here on the Italian Wine Podcast! Listen in on this series as Italian Wine Ambassadors all over the world chat with Stevie and their chosen wine producer. Which producer would you interview if you had your pick? Co-Moderator - Born in Sweden, Erik Schneider grew up in Germany and France. He moved to Italy to study Italian and, as an interpreter, was assigned to the Vinitaly trade fair in 1994. It was here that he first fell in love with the wine trade. Since then, he’s worked as a wine agent, interpreter, sommelier and sales rep, while always dreaming of opening the first authentic wine Bar in Malmo. He realized that dream in 2015 and opened two more wine bars in 2019. In 2023 he left the hospitality sector in search of greater freedom as a wine guide, wine educator and wine advisor.

Today it boasts a property of 23 hectares on the hills of Monleale, at about 300 meters above sea level, where the most typical vines of the territory are cultivated, but above all, the native white wine grape variety, in the past underestimated and now rediscovered, thanks to a great work by Walter Massa.
