Step by step, with a lot of training and a lot of perseverance, discovered that the wine´s and grapewine´s world were his world and passion too.
His father loss, whose was the main support within the family and into field too, trasformed the Young boy into an unique resposible man, not only of the centenary grapewines but of the family.
