Today I am the administrator of the company.Even just a generation ago in Italy, a winemaker like my father would have expected his son or his daughter’s husband to lead a winery like his. But after being charged with carrying on this legacy, between business, social media and knowledge of grape growing and winemaking practices, I am bringing, together with my brother, my family’s historic estate into the 21st century. I deal with marketing and commercial relations with our costumers in Italy and around the world, but as a member of the family I try to contribute with my work to the entire management of the company, from the vineyard (the property is 70 hectares on the on the highest areas of the hills between Monteforte and Soave) to the sale of our wines. I also take care of the management of our small bistro in Soave: Enoteca Realda, born from my great passion for food and restaurants. All this with great passion, enthusiasm and always with a romantic vision of this land wich creat values, good vibes and right traditions.
