Hi! I’m Carlotta Addante – a sommelier and events specialist from Italy, with a background in professional journalism and digital marketing!
Yes, I was born and raised in the “Belpaese” 37 years ago but I have been living abroad for the past 6 years and I started getting seriously interested in the world of wine during my stay in California.
While there, I went to wine school, worked in wineries, traveled the world to get to know new wine regions and new varieties, eventually opened a wine shop too!
That’s why I like to call myself “an old world girl in a new wine world”! It’s not that I don’t appreciate European wines. Quite the opposite, but I grew up with them! Therefore, I find intriguing to discover wines from new places, unusual grapes, progressive winemaking tecniques as well and educate people to open their mind and their palate with me!
Wine is a journey, wine is an experience that talks about a country and its people, wine is always a story that is worth telling!
So follow me in this journey around the world of wine. Whether you are here to read about a new wine trend, find information about your next wine trip, need a marketing advice or book a wine experience with me.
There is always something to learn with wine, and I’m here to help!
Cheers!
