We want to raise the art of living well.

How beautiful it is to excel, and the goodness of giving from your heart.

Even more importantly, it's wine, food and the arts. Incorporating those three enhances the quality of life.

There are a lot of people with a lot of money, and I'm amazed they don't understand what a great pleasure it can be to give.

If you go back to the Greeks and Romans, they talk about all three - wine, food, and art - as a way of enhancing life.

I've always wanted to improve on the idea of living well, In moderation, wine is good for you - mentally, physically, and spiritually.

Ever since I was a child, I wanted to excel in everything.

I always knew the importance of it, since I was three or four years old my mother used to feed me wine and water. I grew up with wine as liquid food.

I want to make wines that harmonize with food - wines that almost hug your tongue with gentleness.

I always knew that food and wine were vital, with my mother being Italian and a good cook.
