Welcome to Episode 1825; part of our Italian wine interview series set in Bologna! Today’s interview features Riccardo Baldi of La Staffa winery  Stevie Kim and her team traveled to the Bologna Slow Wine Fair in March 2023. There they conducted dozens of interviews with some of Italy's most inspiring producers. Join the fun every Thursday afternoon! Tune-in each Thursday as we bring you the great interviews that unfolded over the course of 3 days. More about today’s guest: Riccardo was born in Staffolo in 1990, in the heart of Castelli di Jesi appellation. At the age of 20, he fell in love with wine and I decided to take over my father's vineyard. At the time he produced wine as a hobby on 2 hectares of vineyard. Riccardo moved immediately to organic farming and started to make more “natural” oriented wines.
