“It is our duty to recover the knowledge our ancestors had about vineyards.”

A vine grower by birth and an Agronomical Engineer by training, I’ve always felt at home among the vines. By listening to my parents and grandparents, and reading what was written more than 2,000 years ago, I’ve relearned how to prune — and now I put that into practice to extend the life of the vines.
“Every terroir has its own personality that must be discovered.”

Surrounded by nature since childhood, it was easy for viticulture to capture me. I spend my days among the vines… and with friends. For over twelve years I’ve worked as an Agronomical Engineer and Vine Caretaker. I’m increasingly convinced that quality viticulture is rooted in tradition, in the landscape, in respect for the environment, and for the people who live in rural areas.
“Experience, knowledge, and curiosity are the keys to good viticulture.”

Agronomical Engineer with a PhD and a vocation for viticulture, I’ve managed vineyards of all kinds — large and small — always with attention to every detail. I practice rational viticulture based on observation and a great deal of reading. I’m convinced that theory and practice must go hand in hand, and that it is essential to listen carefully to those who work the vines.

“Ten well-pruned and well-tended vines are worth more, and yield more fruit, than twenty neglected and withered ones.”
