Italian Wine Podcast Ep. 1003 Valentina Abbona | Get US Market Ready With Italian Wine People
Welcome to Episode 1003 Steve Raye interviews Valentina Abbona of Cantine dei Marchesi di Barolo in this installment of Get US Market Ready With Italian Wine People on the Italian Wine Podcast.
About today’s guest:
Valentina Abbona, 6th generation at Cantine dei Marchesi di Barolo
together with her brother Davide, lives a passionate and profound
relationship with wine, which for her is emotion, feeling, history,
terroir and - above all - home.
Her experience begins in her family's cellars - a plunge to the heart
every time she returns from long journeys - and it is here that the
operativity of her daily work grows.
After attending to the Liceo Scientifico in Alba, she moved to Milan
where she attended the Bocconi University, where she graduated in
Business and Economics.
During these years, her personal and professional training grew
constantly thanks to various school-exchange programs, which took
her from Manchester to Hyderabad (India) and then to New York.
Her highly "international" career continues in Shanghai, where she
worked for about a year for a niche high-profile consultancy firm.
Meanwhile she was attending university, she also accompanied her
mother Anna on her numerous business trips all around the world,
which allowed her grasp the most diverse perspectives of the wine
business and to exploit them in the perfect crossroads of tradition
and innovation represented today by Marchesi di Barolo.
