Description

Taste wines of Italy with Giulia Cecchi. Guests will enjoy a wine flight and complimentary charcuterie! Giulia Cecchi was born in Tuscany in 1994 inside a family with deep passion and culture for wine and food. Hailing from Castellina in Chianti, in the Tuscany region of Italy, Giulia grew up with Sangiovese coursing through her veins (almost). Her father is the proprietor of the Famiglia Cecchi Estates and her mother is the one of Castello di Monsanto winery. By consequence Giulia, from early childhood, has been deeply involved in the atmosphere of vine-growing, breathing every day the family experiences: she made her first harvest when she was 4 years old! Growing up travelling to renowned wine regions, tasting food prepared by the best chefs in Italy, and observing her parents in their natural habitats of fine wine and hospitality, Giulia organically grew into a career focused on the remarkable cocktail of Italian culture. Enchanted by the art, passion, and professionalism of the top chef and Italian cuisine, Giulia decided to attend the Luigi Bocconi University in Milan in Economics and made a thesis on the Three Michelin Stars restaurants located in Italy. After university, she was compelled to expand her reach and knowledge, this time in the US. She landed in NYC in early 2016, determined to find her way into the world of fine dining. She found that link through Solex Fine Food as their Italian specialist, working intimately with high-end restaurants and expanding her knowledge of the universe of truffles and fine wine. Now as Volio’s Regional Sales Director in New England and the northern east coast, Giulia continues to spread the gospel of Italian culture, gleefully educating her customers on the rich patrimony of Italian wines.
