Avignonesi is the largest biodynamic vineyard in Italy. The company's mission is to assume leadership in the context of the "good wine industry."
Alessio joined Avignonesi in 2014, and on February 17th he will join us at Vetri Cucina. Born in Pistoia, Alessio has worked and studied in some of the most important wine areas in the world, including Bordeaux, Burgundy and New Zealand, where he has developed a very personal vision of what biodynamic viticulture entails.
He defines himself as a “foot-soldier of the vine”, as in his own words, to practice biodynamics, one must learn to read nature and work in synergy with the environment.
