Wine isn’t just a drink for me – it’s an adventure.

Since 2019, I’ve been working as a certified sommelier with a teaching qualification, driven by the desire to share my passion for wine with others.

 I’ve been active in wine retail for over six years, working as a sommelier and wine consultant.
What I love most is guiding people as they take their first steps into the fascinating world of wine – with a listening ear, clear recommendations, and a genuine joy for discovery.
I have a special affection for the wines of Northern Italy – charming, full of character, and often surprisingly deep.
And then there’s Riesling: a grape that continues to excite me with every new expression, whether bone-dry or lusciously sweet.

You’ll often find me at tastings, trade fairs, and industry events – always on the lookout for new impressions, inspiring wines, and deeper knowledge.
I’m especially drawn to the underdogs of the wine world – small, often lesser-known producers who shine with individuality, passion, and personality rather than mass production or mainstream appeal.
To smell, taste, discover – and truly understand wine. That’s what excites me. And that’s exactly what I hope to pass on to others.
