I was born in Florence in 1962 and I have been working as a italian wine tester for ten years. I have a background in wine tasting, and food & wine journalism and extensive wine knowledge, and contacts at all local wineries.
The first approach to the world of wine was the participation of ‘course of formation for professional sommelier in Florence in 2001. This experience gave me a wide knowledge in the wine wold. Italy is a fantastic country to visit. It is a pleasure for me to assist people in enjoying the trip with smile.
