A sommelier's guide to Umbrian wine, intimate retreats, and the properties worth calling home.

Wine Experiences & Education
Italy's finest pours don't live in tourist brochures they live in family cellars, hilltop estates, and harvest tables. Melisa brings you inside, glass first.
Villa
Lifestyle Real Estate in Italy
Thoughtfully selected homes, vineyards, and lock-and-leave properties for those dreaming of living — or investing — in Italy with clarity and realism.
Retreat
Slow Living & Curated Experiences
No crowds, no itineraries built for tourists. Just small groups, hidden villages, and the unhurried rhythm of central Italy — curated by someone who actually lives it.
Hi! Benvenuti! Let’s share a glass!
I'm Melisa — former clinical scientist, certified sommelier, and your insider guide to the Italy most visitors never find.
It started with roots. Following my ancestors back to central Italy, I discovered a life shaped by vineyards, cobblestone towns, and the kind of slow, intentional living that's hard to explain until you've sat down to a long lunch with a local family and a bottle of something extraordinary.
Now I share that world through Winedering — connecting curious travelers, wine lovers, and dreamers with family-owned wineries, hidden tasting rooms, authentic retreats, and properties worth putting down roots in.
This isn't the Italy of tour buses and over-priced Chiantis. It's the real thing — and I'd love to show you around.
