About this Event
A guided wine tasting hosted by fourth generation winemaker Federico De Cerchio, offering guests a unique opportunity to explore a curated selection of Italian wines from the Famiglia De Cerchio portfolio. This interactive experience blends education, storytelling, and sensory discovery, showcasing the family’s rich winemaking heritage, commitment to organic and sustainable practices, and diverse regional expressions from Abruzzo, Puglia, and Sicily. Designed for both wine lovers and industry professionals, the tasting invites guests to connect with the wines, the land, and the people behind them.
Federico De Cerchio is a fourth-generation Italian winemaker and entrepreneur who leads his family’s historic estate, Torre Zambra. After earning a degree in Business & Administration in 2012, with studies in Sweden and Germany, he founded one of Italy’s pioneering wine e-commerce companies, raising €2.5 million in investment before selling the business in 2018. He then returned to his roots, acquiring Torre Zambra and transforming it into a fully organic and certified sustainable winery. Building on his family’s century-long legacy, Federico went on to establish the Famiglia De Cerchio wine group, which today encompasses five estates across Abruzzo, Puglia, and Sicily, positioning him at the forefront of innovative, sustainable Italian winemaking.
