Slow Living & Curated Experiences
Hi! Benvenuti! Let’s share a glass!
I am Melisa! Was once a clinical scientist, now a sommelier and guide sharing central Italy through wine, real estate, and everyday slow living experiences.
With deep Italian roots and connecting to my ancestors I found my way back to a life shaped by vineyards, small towns, and meaningful connections.
Through Winedering, I share that world with you — family-owned wineries full of history, hidden tasting rooms, vineyard views, villas meant to be lived in, and the quiet rituals of Italian life. Because joy is often found in the simple, real moments… and sometimes, in a good glass of wine…
I guide guests, buyers, and readers into the Italy that locals actually live.
