About us
FOUNDER
Wine is not just what you drink.
It's who makes it, where it comes from,
and the story you take home with you.
Alessandro Barberis
Founder of Wine Heritance
"I am the mind and heart behind Wine Heritance, a project born from the desire to talk about wine through people, places and stories that make it unique."
I was born and raised in Piedmont and I carry with me a deep connection to my homeland and its wines, particularly Nebbiolo, which I consider part of my identity. This passion gave rise to the 91 Project, a symbolic journey through Piedmont created as a tribute to my grandfather, to wine culture and to my roots.
I am a certified WSET Level 2 and ONAV, I attended the Barolo & Barbaresco Academy and I am a member of theOrder of the Knights of the Truffle and Wines of Alba. I combine technical expertise with a natural curiosity and a genuine ability to engage others.
This energy is what brought the Wine Heritance community to life: a group of enthusiasts united by the desire to discover, share and tell the story of Piedmont’s Wine Heritance.
For me, wine is more than tasting: it is memory, place and human connection.

Wine begins
vengono with people.
Wine Heritance was born from hundreds of kilometres travelled, winery visits, handshakes and conversations over a glass of wine. Every producer we met left something with us. Every place offered a different perspective. Because wine, even before it is tasted, lives in the people who care for it and share it.
