Hello! I've been living in Italy's Emilia-Romagna Province for about 8 years now. I work as an Italian Sommelier Association certified sommelier at various events.
If you've started working at an Italian restaurant, if you're interested in Italian wine or the Italian language, if you're considering starting sommelier studies, if you're interested in Italian wine terminology, if you want to know more about wine and food pairings, if you are curious about regional Italian cuisine, if you want conversation-based Italian lessons, then let's study together while talking about wine.
【Personal history】
After graduating culinary school in Japan, I worked at French, Italian and Japanese restaurants.
I attended a language school here, and then I worked in the kitchen of a local cuisine restaurant while taking an Italian Sommelier Association course, eventually obtaining my certification and becoming a professional sommelier.
Now, I work freelance as a Japanese food caterer, I offer sommelier services at restaurants and food fairs, I do presentation for wineries and visit wineries in Italy to continue my studies.
I am able to customize lessons suited to your individual wishes.
I focus on New World, French and Italian wines.
I offer real Italian conversation lessons, travel-related conversation lessons and please feel free to ask me anything about anything!
If you'd like to know about wine (sparkling, sweet wine, etc.) fermentation, wine names and regions, the differences between AOC, DOC and DOCG, the characteristics of wine, what foods go well with wine as so on, or anything else about wine then don't hesitate to ask!
