Ep. 1939 Piemonte Travel Series- Sara Vezza | On The Road With Stevie Kim

Welcome to Episode 1939 and another installment of "On The Road Edition", hosted by Stevie Kim. Today’s episode comes from Piemonte where Stevie meets her guest, Sara Vezza.

In this On The Road Special Edition, Stevie Kim meets Sara Vezza, the fifth generation of winemaker at the Josetta Saffirio winery in Monforte d'Alba in the Barolo winemaking area. 

They discuss the history of the winery, the origins and significance of its name, as well as the territory of the winery and its flagship wines.

Sara also explains the importance of the historic Josetta Saffirio brand as well as the development of the new Sara Vezza line, focussing on sparkling metodo classico wines.

The evolution of the estate and the importance of sustainability with the maintenance of forests and beekeeping is an important aspect of the winery's commitment to biodiversity. Sara also explains the wider significance of sustainability, from an economic and social perspective, as well as the challenges currently facing the winery.

Stevie also asks about the recent rebranding and "adopt a row of vines" initiative, as well as the concept of "lusso vero" or "real luxury", of having the time to enjoy life in a meaningful way!
