At one point of her life Claudia decided to become a sommelier and to unify her family experience, personal taste, travels, stays when she lived in Parma, Florence and Milan and work experience (30 years as Congress Manager ) and, not to mention her roots from father’s part,…. Sicily. All this gave an explosive mixture to her personality, sympathy and joy of life.
