part 5. Winemaking
Unveiling the complete picture of wine: the climate, variety, and terroir determine the initial style, and the winemaker, with the help of several key decisions (for whites: steel/oak/malolactic fermentation/bâtonnage; for reds: type of maceration and oak), simply brings the style into balance, making the wine softer, brighter, or more structured, without trying to go against the nature of the grape.

DipWset graduate + certified sommelier
I love wine, and it's not just a sensory experience, but also rational knowledge. And I want to teach this knowledge to as many passionate people as possible.
While French and Italian wines are my personal passion, we’ll explore terroirs worldwide. Not just where wines come from, but what terroir truly means at its core.

The logic of taste
Wine can seem complex, yet it becomes remarkably clear when you view it through the structure of taste.
Our approach is built on three enduring principles:
Clarity
No dense terminology without explanation. Everything is organized, deliberate, and easy to follow.
Structure
Once you understand the underlying principles, you can interpret any wine — even one you’re encountering for the very first time. Wine becomes clear and comprehensible when it’s broken down into its essential elements: aroma, acidity, body, and balance.
Sensation Before Facts
You begin with what you feel and taste, and only then move on to names, regions, and classifications. Authentic taste comes from attentiveness and nuance, not from memorizing names and labels.
You stop guessing.
You begin to understand.
You begin to understand.
My approach cultivates not just knowledge, but a genuine culture of understanding.
