OUR CO-WORKERS
We started out by doing everything ourselves, but as the amount of work grew over the years, we needed assistance, and we have been successful in building a fine, effective, close-working team. There is much to do, particularly if our family winery grows in production and in numbers of visitors.
We are proud to introduce a staff that is international and also includes many women.
Durim Domi: Originally from Albania, Durim has been in Italy for decades now. He works both in the winemaking cellar and in the vineyards.
Lorena Guarguaglini and Jorita Domi: Lorena is “old-time” resident of Castagneto Carducci, and Jorita is from Albania. Both are expert workers in both the cellars and in the vineyards.
Pamela Cresci: With a degree in business management, Pamela oversees all the administrative and logistical duties.
Gabriella Gianini and Katrin Pfeifer: Both are long-time residents of Castagneto, even if Gabriella hailed from Switzerland and Katrin from Germany. Polyglot lovers of wine, they preside over visitor services, assisting our guests to get to know Guado al Melo, in Italian, English, and German.
The many students and trainees who have spent time with us--and will continue to do so: They have helped us mightily, and every year bring a breath of fresh air and good spirits to the hard labour of grape harvesting. We hope that they too have been able to bring away with them something that will prove useful in their future… |
