Alberto Piras

Sommelier Relais & Châteaux

How did you get into the world of wine?

I studied at Carlo Porta Institute, a hotel school in Milan and I choose sommelier specialization. After a stage as commis sommelier, wine became my passion and the purpose of my ‘life’.

What is your personal philosophy?

Wine is my philosophy. I like Italian and French wines and love their elegance.

What are your favourite things about wine?

I am fascinated by the great quality of some wines, their history and the storytelling behind each label.

What is special about your cellar?

Our cellar has a wide collection of rare and old wines. Each bottle has its own story.

What food-wine pairings do you think work best?

My favourite pairing is the one I suggest with our most emblematic dish: spaghettoni al cipollotto. It matches perfectly with an old harvest Ximenes Spinola because of the sweet note of the onions.

As a sommelier, what is your relationship with the Chef like?

Studying the perfect combination of food and wine together with the chef is always a great experience. We try different wines before choosing the perfect one.
