The Food Expert:

My love for the land, for my origins and for the work initially carried out by my parents led me to perfect my technical knowledge, first with a diploma as an agricultural expert and then with a degree in Agricultural Sciences.

I never stop and I always try to keep up to date, which is why in 2020 I obtained my Olive Oil Sommelier diploma. You just have to rely on my knowledge: I will lead you into a whole new world of love, passion and tradition.
