The world of wines is about passion, history, culture and food pairing. As a sommelier I take great pleasure in sharing my knowledge with other wine-lovers and connaisseurs.
I speak fluently Dutch, Italian and English. I have a lot of information to share, and my goal is to create a fantastic experience for my clients!

Fine Wine & Food tour for ‘Lichtjes voor Sophia’
The ‘Stichting Vrienden van het Sophia’ asked me to make a ‘Fine Wine & Food tour in Tuscany’ available for their charity auction. They do research into children’s deseases. Of course I said yes, feeling proud to be picked out to contribute to this beautiful event.
They organize a Sophia Lichtjesdiner and charity auction at the Laurenskerk in Rotterdam. The tour contains: 4 nights in hotel Lupaia in Torrita di Siena, a lunch and wine tasting in Montepulciano with winemaker Luca, a wine tasting in Montalcino, a visit to the Chianina cow farm in Foiano della Chiana. Running with wine barrels (a local tradition) and a visit to the weekly market are also part of the program. In short: this is a trip involving lots of delicious wines, food and unique experiences! On top of that, this wine tour being up for auction will help the foundation to fund their research and innovative projects.
