I design private experiences for those looking for the real Italy: historic wineries, producers who open their homes, itineraries built around your pace. No groups, no mandatory stops.

Monferrato, at dawn
I work with only a few people each year. You're probably in the right place if:
If you're looking for a group tour or the lowest price, I'm probably not the right person — and I'll tell you so honestly.
A journey designed around you: regions, wineries, restaurants, private transfers, hand-picked stays. Everything coordinated, everything booked.
Exclusive visits to wineries closed to the public, guided vertical tastings and lunches with the producer, with a technical reading of the wine (WSET in progress). Ideal as an extension of a trip you have already planned.
Guided visits as a licensed guide: Monferrato, Langhe and Piedmont wine country. Historical, cultural and landscape context, in Italian, English or Portuguese.
One number to call for anything: a last-minute restaurant, a change of plans, a hard-to-get booking. Available every day.
You tell me what you're looking for, what you've already seen, who's travelling with you. I'll see whether I can truly help.
Within 5 days you receive a draft itinerary with its logic, regions, style and budget range. No commitment.
Once we're aligned, I get into the details: wineries, chefs, stays, transport. I show you options, you choose.
Travel with peace of mind. I remain your point of contact before, during and after.
The wineries you visit are not “commercial partnerships”. They are people I have known for years, who open their doors because they know me.
At most one trip a week in high season. It's the only way to guarantee the quality I promise.
Every journey starts from a blank page. Even if the destination is the same, the way you experience it is yours.
I tell you where every euro goes. No hidden commissions on wineries, no mark-ups on accommodation.
“I believe a good journey isn't measured in places seen, but in people met.”
Italy is not a postcard: it's a winemaker showing you her grandfather's vineyard, an innkeeper cooking whatever he found at the market, a silence on the hills before the harvest.
My job is to remove all the noise in between — and leave you only this.
I am based in Grazzano Badoglio, in the heart of Monferrato. Here, at Tenuta Santa Caterina – Winery & Relais, I welcome guests and share the story of the wines of these hills.

I've been working at Tenuta Santa Caterina for a year. This is what a harvest really looks like once you take off the Instagram filters.
