Work with Me

Wine education and advisory work, grounded in curiosity, experience and the pleasure of understanding.

Education and WSET

WSET wine courses — person assessing the aromas of a glass of red wine.

Through Atelier del Vino, I offer WSET courses and wine education that combine structured learning with tasting and discussion, helping wine lovers and professionals develop their knowledge and confidence.

Individual Coaching

WSET wine courses — red wine being poured into a tasting glass.

Personalised support for your wine studies, shaped around your goals and the areas you find most challenging. Together, we can clarify theory, develop a more structured approach to tasting and prepare for examinations, working at a pace that suits you.

Advisory

I work with wineries, consorzi and wine institutions to clarify their message, communicate their identity and connect with their audiences. Drawing on experience in international business and wine communication, I bring an informed outside perspective to positioning, educational projects and communication strategy.

Speaking and Masterclasses

I lead talks, tastings and masterclasses for wine professionals and curious audiences, adapting each session to the occasion and their level of knowledge. Themes range from wine regions and tasting to reputation, communication and the changing culture of wine.

Discuss a Project

Tell me what you have in mind, who it is for and what you hope to achieve. I’d be glad to explore how we might work together.
