After graduating in history from the San Diego State University, he worked in many wineries between Italy and Australia, from Tenuta San Guido to Torbreck and in 2015 he decided to open the Barù in Bolgheri, Tuscany. Barù also carries out various consultations for restaurants, bars and hotels. He communicates food, wine and lifestyle via newspapers, television programs and on his social channels.
